Don't miss our great student shows for Red Gate Farm students only

HELD EVERY
SPRING & FALL
 

 


Among the wonderful programs offered by Red Gate Farm, you'll find our semi-annual student horse shows. These shows are designed to improve the student's confidence, encourage camaraderie, provide a learning experience and promote healthy sports values.

Every competitor receives a ribbon, in each class. The cost is minimal - riders enter 3 classes at their level for $65 total.

Traditionally, our shows are held on Saturdays in May and in October. These informal shows are great opportunities for participants to show off their stuff while providing a super family outing.

Red Gate Farm Student Horse Show

 

Cost:  $25 per class or $65 per division.  Each rider may take up to 3 classes. We encourage even the beginners to try all 3 classes.  Must be pre-registered and pre-paid.  Make checks payable to “Red Gate Farm”. You will choose your horse when your entry is paid.

 

Dress:  This is designed to be a fun first show, and therefore, will not require expensive show clothes.  Acceptable attire includes riding pants or plain leggings, boots, a solid polo or other nice shirt, and long hair braided or tied back.

 

Classes:  Riders will show the same horse in all classes. Riders are judged on their position, ability to control their horse, and horsemanship. Ribbons will be awarded to each participant in each class.  Snack bar will be available (hot dogs, chips, candy, drinks).
