CLINICS:

   Mark has been giving clinics "From the Judges Point of View" for the past 15 years. Trainers, Exhibitors, and parents can all benefit from a proper and thorough understanding of the rules they are governed and judged by. A reading and explanation of the rules for hunter and hunter seat equitation will be reviewed, with a question and answer period. Then riders will be divided into groups (limit of 4 riders, 1 1/2 hour sessions) and those rules will be applied directly to the rider and the horse. All levels are encouraged to participate. References are available and any further questions may be answered by email or phone. Looking forward to your participation! Thank you.
