| We are pleased to be able to host Thomas Smith for a Navigator Clinic prior to the CDE competition season. We are attaching this clinic to one of our CDE Schooling Weekends to allow participants to accomplish two things in one trip. |
May 14-15, 2010 | |
Entries open with March 20, 2010 postmark
Open March 15 for Emerald F of H members
Entries close when full
|
Friday morning's presentation (9:00a.m. - 12:00 or 12:30 p.m.) by Thomas includes videos and on-carriage demonstrations. Topics will include:
Balancing the carriage
Rules affecting grooms and navigators
Preparing for problems
Troubleshooting
Calculating split times for sections A & E (if time allows)
Friday afternoon (1:00 or 1:30 p.m. until done--about 4:00 p.m.) will give participants a chance to try out the back step. Attendees may choose to audit and
observe, rather than getting experience on board, or participate and have time on the step.
|
| Saturday Driver/Navigator teams (both must have participated or at least audited Friday) will use their own turnout to participate in semi-private lessons from 9:00 a.m. until noon. We will schedule two
or three turnouts per session so you can gain experience driving hazards, get feedback, give your horses a breather while you
watch others drive the hazard, then drive again. |
Lunch is provided on Friday, concession lunches are available on Saturday. |
