The Gymkhana/Games Day 10/27 from 10-12ishpm. This is such a fun sport, and great way to learn about in laid back setting. Whether you just want to try it, or you are currently competing and want to improve skills, this is a great opportunity. There is fun for every level. Even though this is a western sport, you are welcome to do in an english saddle if you are more comfortable. We will be going over the basic Gymkhana patterns: Clover leaf (barrel racing), arena race and pole bending plus a surprise pattern.
For each pattern, lead line will go first, followed by novice-advanced.
10am: Arena Race
10:30am: Clover Leaf (Barrel Racing)
11am: Pole Bending
11:30am: Surprise Pattern
You will need to be here, tacked and warmed up by 10am so we can start promptly. Space is limited, so please sign up asap. Cost is $60 ($75 for lead line). Of course this is February.. So this is dependent on it being above 20 degrees and no weather advisories. If this is the case, we will try for a snow date. Please dress appropriately for weather (lots of layers). We will be indoors, but it will still only be 10 degrees warmer than outside.
I will also need lead line volunteers and ring crew volunteers so we can change patterns quickly. Lead line helpers can do clinic too, there will be time to switch riders in between. Please let me know if you can help. naturalhorse80@yahoo.com
