RESULTS
Show Report & Thank You
Our
October Schooling Show Weekend was a wonderful way to end the
season! We had a cold and breezy Saturday show followed by
a warmer and sunny Championship show. It was great to see so
many of our regular competitors and some new faces who will be
with us next season at the shows. We must give a big thank you
to all our competitors who work so hard to achieve their
dreams. Many, many bright smiles were shown as riders hit their
goals this weekend.

July 7, 2019 NODA Schooling Dressage Show at
Chagrin Valley Farms
Show Report & Thank You
WE had a terrific schooling show Sunday. It
was a full show with a long wait list of competitors hoping to
get into the show. There were many new riders which we
were very happy to see! The rain, for the most part, avoided
the show ring but there were a few riders who got soaked. Thank
you to our judges Debbie Boeh (L*) and Jennifer Roth (r) for
taking the time to provide comments on each rider test so that
each competitor can improve and learn.
Many thanks to Chagrin Valley Farms and Bernie
Villeneuve for all their help to ensure we had what we
needed to run a great show! The only way for our schooling
show to be successful is to have plenty of volunteers.

It was so cool to hear Robin comment on improvements she has seen in a variety in riders over the past three years of working with us.
