2 Omnibus 2014 Please check out the IEO website for further information as it becomes available. The IEO has planned its 2014 show season. We are having 5 schooling shows offering dressage classes from USDF Introductory levels, USEF training through 4 th level, FEI Prix St. George through Grand Prix, Musical Freestyles, the USEA Eventing tests, USEF Dressage Rider tests and Western Dressage Association of America Tests. Our shows are stress-free and friendly. We offer great judges, helpful volunteers and wonderful footing in a calm, horse and rider friendly atmosphere. If you are new to dressage or just horse shows in general, come on out and allow our volunteers to guide you through the process. We will be showing at 4 different venues to give horses and riders more experience at different locations. The IEO offers great prizes for those members as well as non members competing in our shows. There are High Score awards for each level and High Score of the Day awards given at the JR/YR, AA, and Pro levels at each of our shows. All horse and rider combinations are eligible for the above awards even if you are not an IEO member. Only IEO members are eligible for Year-end awards, which are given at the annual banquet. See the awards section for more qualification information. Please remember that we are an all-volunteer organization. If you are interested in helping at any of our shows or other activities, please contact the show managers or our volunteer chair, Linda Colflesh at or lcolflesh@cs.com In order for IEO members to qualify for Year-End awards, you must volunteer at least 1 full day or 2 half days.
