The Cover Your Hoof Print program recognizes that horses are a valuable partner to the IEA. The Zone 4 plan measures the impact of a team s entries by calculating how many rides the team takes. Every FIVE rides require one horse. Each IEA team should understand that they are making hoof prints based on the number of rides they take at the competitions they attend. For instance, a team that enters five riders with two rides each has a total of ten rides. That makes a two horse hoof print. Going green means that this team takes would cover their hoof print by bringing two horses to the show they attend. According to the Zone 4 plan, that s how a team will Cover their Hoof Print this show season. My team has entered number of rides for this show. The impact our team will make on this show is measured as: Number of rides divided by 5 = number of horses. Our team will cover our hoof print by providing Number of horses. Here is the description the horses our team can bring and what classes they can do.
