2023 Virtual Shows

Virtual schooling shows allow riders who, for a variety of reasons, are unable to compete at our in person shows to have a show experience at home. Although we started these shows during the pandemic, we will continue to offer them for as long as they remain popular. Riders from near and far are invited to participate! All classes will be pinned to sixth place with test scores and ribbons being mailed after all the scoring is confirmed. Please allow 2-3 weeks after the last date of the show to receive your tests and ribbons.


Be sure to read all the virtual showing details listed below.  Note that there are separate year end awards for in person and virtual competitors. Virtual year end award divisions are finalized based on total participation. You must be a member to qualify.
