People have committed themselves (committed... good word!) to running a dressage show or two in the 2008 show season. Needless to say, they will be asking for help from members. So whatever time you can give will be appreciated. Come down to the Bohemia Equestrian Center on one of the show dates and see what goes on. Its a wonderful show of the power, beauty, concentration, obedience and brains shown by these dancers of the horse world.
With help, this page will become an active page for IHA members and friends to find upcoming dressage activities,
without help.. it will fade into the sunset. Don't let that happen.. UPDATE... eight years have gone by and dressage is still going strong, thank you to all our riders!
