Equestrian Team Hosts Horse Show at Hyder-Burks

231

This weekend the Equestrian Team will be hosting an IHSA Western Horse Show at Hyder-Burks Pavilion.

The competition spans over two days:

Saturday February 4: 12pm-7pm

Sunday February 5: 8am-3pm

Admission is free.

The Equestrian Team is a student group of horse enthusiasts. Members participate in meetings, campus events, fundraisers, team, weekly lessons, practices, and competitions. There are no tryouts or deadlines to join. Previous riding experience is not required.

The team competes within the Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association against local colleges. IHSA competition is unique in that it does not require students to own a horse to participate. Horses are provided by the participating schools and assigned to riders using a draw format. Riders are judged on their ability to communicate with an unfamiliar mount.
