VHC Eventing Presented by Capital Square
Following the First Horse Inspection, which kicked off the competition at VHC Eventing, presented by Capital Square, its green lights and all systems go. The Ground Jury for the CCI2*-L and CCI1*-L divisions assessed all 26 combinations entered for competitive readiness, accepting all pairs with no holds or representations.
I Love My Horse presented a Best Turned Out Award for the First Horse Inspection, giving a $150 gift certificate to Isabelle Blair and Get It Together, who are competing in the CCI2*-L.
Ridden competition begins on Friday, with an action-packed weekend awaiting our horses and riders. Friday’s schedule includes dressage and show jumping for the Preliminary, Intermediate, Advanced/Intermediate, Advanced CT, and FEI divisions.
The general event schedule, including ride times and orders of go, can be found here.
Competitors and spectators are invited to attend some special events on Friday, including an opportunity to meet the Capital Square team and get hydrated at the Stave Mill Pavillion from 12 p.m. until 3 p.m. There will also be a reception with refreshments at the Stave Mill Pavillion during show jumping, sponsored by Triple Crown, from 3 p.m. until 4:30 p.m.
VHC Eventing also has some volunteer opportunities available throughout the weekend. Interested parties can sign up for a volunteer shift here.
