Winter schooling shows in/around MD?

[mybeau1999]

Just trying to plan out some winter schooling shows :D

What are your favorites? I know of Columbia Horse Center and Equilibrium Horse Center. Which other ones should I look into? Trying to keep it within about an hour from Annapolis/Baltimore.

Thanks for any suggestions!!!!

I believe Morven Park in Leesburg is planning to have some shows in their indoor. They are on the MD/VA line. The nice thing is they also have an indoor warm up ring.

May be a little far for you.
Talbot Run in Mt Airy
Legacy Stables-used to be Weave A Dream in Hampstead
LaBarre Training Center in Westminster all hold 1 per month and work with each others calendars so there is no conflict of dates.
Wilson college in Chambersburg Pa holds some as well.
Great schooling shows.

Pleasant Ridge Farm in Walkersville also has some :) I went to the one on Saturday, super place to show, everyone is really down to earth and friendly

I forgot all about Talbot Run - we've down some jumper shows there, it doesn't take tooo long to get there :)

Also haven't been to Morven in a while, I'll keep checking their website.

And I'll check out all the other shows too!

Thanks!! :D

30-40 min from Annapolis......check the PVDA website and search for Bayside Chapter.....
"Breezy Run Farm" has HJ and dressage schooling shows, working also on a Jumper series for the winter.
"Chesapeak Dressage Institue" might have something also:)
