UNIVERSITY OF NORTH FLORIDA WESTERN HOME SHOW AND REGIONALS
MARCH 2ND AND 3RD, 2019
March 2nd-3rd 2019 Home Show Flyer
Come join us at this year’s Western home show at the St. Johns County Equestrian Center! We will have two regular shows on Saturday starting at 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM, and Sunday will be our Regionals competition for all riders who have qualified during this school year.
Whether you are interested in joining a collegiate team, or just want to see how our shows work all spectators are welcome. We will have six classes of riders competing, ranging from Beginner Walk/Jog all the way up to Reining.
We are always in search of quiet Western trained horses for all rider levels to participate in our show. If you are interested in your horse possibly joining, please contact us! This is a great experience for both the competitors and horses.
How do our collegiate shows work?
Our riders get a random draw for their horse before classes, so they have no prior experience with that horse evening the playing field! All the horses we use are our own or are brought for us to use by local friends, trainers, and other schools. We travel around the state competing in at least five shows a year and then continue to semi-finals and finals and nationals if a rider qualifies based on points from wins.
What kind of riding do we do?
All our levels compete in Horsemanship classes with rail work and patterns. Our top level of Open riders also competes in Reining.
Who can join and ride?
Anyone!! There is no prior riding experience required to join. The only requirement is that you must be a full-time undergraduate student that is currently enrolled.
If you would like to come out and observe, our Saturday shows will start at 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM, and Sunday will start at 9:00 AM.
There will not be any official team tables set up, but feel free to talk to any riders dressed in a school that you may be interested in!
For more information or questions, please contact hayleymmobley@gmail.com.

Details:

Peter Davis, President SORBA (Southern Off Road Bicycle Ass.) invited us to join them as they refurbish the Mountain Bike (mtb) single track trails at Nocatee. Many equestrians ride the double track trails (roads) there, remember the 2015 St Augustine 400th Anniversary Trail rides.
In the spirit of safely sharing trails, he has also asked us to explain procedures when a bicycle and horse come upon each other on the trail. Bring your horse for a small demonstration to explain the flight nature of horses and how approaching a horse is safely done for cyclist and rider. We can also explain manure management for trails, i.e. nature will take care of it. . This offer is a great opportunity for BCHFC.
helping,BCHFC can make sure all the intersections with single and double track trails are open and safe for all users. Bring branch nippers and hand tools. Certified chain saw users only please.
We can get out and show we are willing to make trails compatible for all users!! Plan to bring friends and make friends. Be Sure to Sign-Up!!!
