I can't believe I am writing Fall when we are in the middle of Summer! But as school is starting for most - it is the fall season when we adjust our schedules and plans.

The Area 2 Young Riders Schedule for the year is attached. I hope I get to see you at one of these events!

For our High School (rising 7th through graduating 12th graders) there are the Interscholastic teams competitions. Ideally, you are a member of an IEL team with your Pony Club, Trainer, barn, or a group of friends. For those who don't have those connections, no worries, as part of the Area 2 YR Program you will be added to our roster once I know your grade... It is important to send me your grade if you want to be included in the Area2 Young Rider Program Roster.

Did you know there is a unique leaderboard for riders on an IEL roster?

Go to the USEVENTING.com website and look at the leaderboards. We have program members at the top of most of the boards.
