2011 Results

Thanks to sponsors for their generous support!

The Green Mountain Horse Association and Vermont Dressage Days are teaming up to create a new program for New England dressage riders.  The Green Mountain Dressage Championship, or GMDC, is a year end awards program for riders competing in Vermont’s USEF/USDF recognized dressage shows.  The goal of the program is to promote dressage competition at all levels in the state of Vermont, and to provide riders with a season-long goal, attainable within the local area.  GMDC shows for 2011 will be GMHA’s June Dressage Show (June 17-19), GMHA Dressage Days (July 22-24), Vermont Dressage Days (August 13-14), and GMHA’s Fall Dressage Show (October 1-2).

This exciting new program will be open to any horse and rider combination participating in GMDC shows.  Competitors must declare a horse and rider combination and level of competition, and pay a nominating fee in order to be eligible for the GMDC.  Horse and rider combinations are only eligible at one level per season.  Once declarations are filed, the rider is under no obligation to submit scores or tests, and there are no membership numbers or cards to keep track of!  The program will be administered by the Green Mountain Horse Association in cooperation with Vermont Dressage Days.

Once a horse and rider combination has been declared, the high score from each competition will count towards the Green Mountain Dressage Championship.  The best three out of four scores at the declared level of competition will be averaged to determine the winner of the GMDC.  Riders are encouraged to participate in all four eligible shows, in which case the lowest of the four scores will be dropped.  Ribbons and awards will be presented for 1^st through 6^th place at Training, First, Second, Third, Fourth, and the FEI levels.
