The Training Level Three Day Event is an educational hybrid competition; it is officially recognized by the United States Eventing Association as an educational activity. Riders compete in an actual "classic" three day event, with roads and tracks and steeplechase, a "10-minute box" as well as cross country, in addition to dressage and stadium jumping. Formal horse inspections also take place on the first day and on the last day. What makes it fun is the wonderful educational opportunities for both riders and volunteers.
Volunteers Needed - Sign up here!
Qualifications:
- Four clean Cross Country rounds in the last year at the training level. We also count preliminary rounds if they were clean.
- One must be with horse and rider.
- One must be within three months of the competition.
