Local Horse Shows and Rated Shows
Topline Equestrian is active in the local show circuit and USEF rated shows. By competing, students are able to share their love of horses with other competitors, set and attain clear goals and track their progress and growth while having a great time with their barn team mates.
In addition to the show schedule, we've provided an outline of typical fees associated with competing.

Showing Fees
Competing in any sport comes with varying fees. In order to help parents and riders to plan, we have provided an overview of common expenses associated with horse shows. As expenses may vary greatly from one show to another (and can be overwhelming and confusing to those just starting out), Jen is always happy to provide an approximate quote for any given show in advance if desired. If the rider would like to accumulate points and participate in the end of year banquet and awards ceremony, an annual membership in the ETHJA is required.
