Dressage
GDCTA is hosting dressage clinics at USEF Elite Training Facility Shannondale Farm in Milton, Georgia, again in 2021.
This year, we are trying something different – rider selection will be done by lottery! All members may apply. It’s simple to apply: send an email to Caren Caverly at ccaverly@comcast.net with the clinician’s name & date, your name, your category (Jr/YR / AA / Open), and your riding level.
• Rider must be a GDCTA member • Deadline to Apply 2 Months* before the clinic • Riderswillbechosenby'raffle'drawingandwillbecontactedwithinthenextweek*. • Riderselectionrafflewilldrawforjuniors,adultamateurs,andprofessionals.“Wildcard" draws will be used to round out the rider slots. If there are not enough applicants in any category, we will add riders from the others, of course. • Paymenttoholdyourslotwillbeexpectedonemonthbeforetheclinic.*
