7 We would like to thank our 2015 Advertisers Rachel Alexander DVM BEST General Contracting Brittany McCarthy-Geglein Dressage Kubicki Eventing & Dressage Liberty Equestrian Center Majestic Farm Calligraphic QCDC logo horses are stylized by the free-hand pen of Leopardo Antonozzi, who lived in Italy about 1650 A.D. At this time the Classic Masters (ecuyers) Menou de Charnizay, Pierre de la Noue, Jaques de Solleysel and Gaspard Saunier were active in Continental riding academies. The type of horse is the Neopolitan equine of Antonozzi s Italy. Françoise Robichon de la Gueriniérè was 70 years in the future and the Spanish Riding School of Vienna was still nearly a century away. Dressage comes from dresser, to position. A raised poll and lowered hindquarters were considered an essential foundation for classical collected exercises. A later type of horse accompanied the introduction of extended movements and flying changes of leg at the canter into the dressage school. The current richness of dressage sport and art is a reflection of its long international history. Graphic Design :: Nancy L. Nicholson Omnibus Consultant :: Catherine B.

Harmony between horse and rider 10 4 Choreography, use of arena, inventiveness, Design cohesiveness, balance, Ingenuity and creativity 10 4 Degree of difficulty 10 1 Music 10 3 Interpretation 10 3 Conditions for Freestyles: Arena: Standard only. 10 Time: USDF Freestyle time limit 5 minutes. There is no minimum time. Timing and judging commence when the horse moves off after the entry salute and ceases at the final salute. No bell is sounded at the end of the time limit. Movements executed after the time limit are not scored. The rider must enter the arena or signal the sound engineer within 45 seconds of the entry bell, or will be eliminated. The rider must enter the arena within 20 seconds of the start of the music, or will be eliminated. Judges: If two or more judges officiate in a class, all judge both Technical and Artistic categories. USEF Rule: Except for USEF/USDF Championship classes and for Prix St. Georges Freestyles, in order to enter a freestyle class at any level [recognized show], a horse/rider combination must have received a minimum score of 60% in the highest test of the declared freestyle level or any test of a higher level at a USEF recognized show. A photocopy of the test verifying eligibility must be submitted with the entry for a freestyle class. QCDC Rule: riders are advised that while it is not necessary to qualify for a schooling show entry, the USDF freestyle score sheet will be used and will require movements that include those from the highest test of the level. Music Failure: If music fails during a Freestyle Test, the rider may leave the arena with permission of the judge at C. The rider may decide whether or not to restart the test from the beginning. Clearly Allowed: Training Level Free walk Medium walk Stretch circle Trot circle no smaller than 15 meters Canter circle no smaller than 15 meters Movements Above the Level Penalized by a four point deduction from the total for Technical Execution for each illegal movement, but not for each recurrence of the same movement. 11 Trot-halt-trot Trot-walk-trot Trot-canter-trot Trot serpentine single loop or larger; serpentine(s) of loops no smaller than 15 meters. Omitted compulsory elements receive a 0 and are averaged into the Judge s Marks. Judge s marks for Technical Execution must be given in half points or full points (no tenths). Posting will be allowed; sitting is optional. Must be ridden in a standard arena (20 x 60 meters). * This is a summary of requirements. Riders are responsible for downloading and reading the current original USDF score sheet rules.

23 Courtesy Classes Suggestions For Advertisers 1) Image size for ads are 7.7 inches high and 4.7 inches wide. Keep these proportions, please! 2) Try to have your ad in a file format that will print at a high resolution for best quality. The file formats of TIF, PDF (hi res), are acceptable, but EPS files (Encapsulated PostScript) are preferred by page layout software in general use. GIF, & JPG are raster compression formats and often yield poor results. Resolution (dpi or dots per inch) is important: 150 or 300 dpi will look a whole lot better than web standard 72 dpi. Low resolution raster (pixel-based) files get seriously unlovely cases of the jaggies. Be wise and keep your original layered master documents if there is a need to edit (usually Photoshop.psd files or Word.doc files). Remember, those of you who have Word 2008 that NOT EVERYONE HAS SOFTWARE THAT CAN READ.docx files! Alternative readable (legacy) formats are in a popup menu in your print dialog. 3) Ask your Omnibus consultants about print sizes and file formats if in doubt. Also ask about font choices. Some novelty fonts print badly. There are three fonts on this page (Arial, Bickham Script Multiple master and Lucida Calligraphic. This is to illustrate that you may lose your graphic design visual joy if you use too many different serifed (Times New Roman), cursive (Bickham Script) or novelty (Curlz) fonts. Non-serifed fonts (Arial) are easy to read and design does not compete with legibility. 4) Remember that business cards with complicated logos may lose resolution (see #2 above) and/or crispness when scanned or faxed. This means that small text, fine lines and pale grays may actually disappear or become blurred in scans or subsequent re-sizing of your image file. If need be, send your logo as a separate file so it can be sized without distortion to fit the ad space. Make sure all contact information is current and clearly displayed. 5) Contrast of gray scale images should be kept high enough so there are clear differences in the parts of an image. In the engraving from Ecole de Cavalerie above, there are black blacks and white whites. Background textures create visual hash. The Digital Goddess reserves the right to alter layouts to keep resolution and visual balance.

Boarding Veterinary Services Lessons Show Bills and Farm Events Web site updates 3. Know your dressage rules for correct tack, appropriate/safe riding attire (especially head gear), and procedures. It is the rider s responsibility to know the USEF, USDF, and USEA and QCDC rules. This includes rules for show dress, saddlery/bits and conflicts of interest among judges, technical delegates, students, organizers, secretaries. Last minute changes can affect these relations, so be sure to check with management at the time you pick up your show packet. 4. If you have any questions, ask the show management. 5. Always let the gatekeeper know when you are in the warm up arena and that you are available for your ride time. Have correct exhibitor number. 6. If you are unable to show in your scheduled class(es), please let the gatekeeper and/or secretary know as soon as possible. 7. When you are riding in a crowded schooling area, pass LEFT shoulder to LEFT shoulder to avoid collisions! LOOK before you TURN or STOP your horse. Outside track is for working horses: slower or walking horses stay to the inside of the track. 8. Please, no phone entries. List all classes, including Courtesy Classes. 9. Volunteer! It s the best way to understand how a dressage show works. Volunteering helps management keep your entry fees LOW. 10. If riding a courtesy test (USEF 2013 Rider Test, NWHA Gaited Dressage or USEF Western Dressage, bring 2 copies to the show. IT IS GREAT TO BE APPRECIATED! 11. The management worked hard to organize the show for you, help them by leaving their facility as clean as when you arrived. 12. When you are ready to leave the show parking area, clean up around your trailer for hay, manure, papers, and other materials. Our shows are ahead of the curve for growth in dressage disciplines, including Western, Gaited and Driving Dressage. 13. Remember to smile and have a good time with your horse and your friends. Have a safe trip home
