General Information

Riders and ponies of all levels are invited.

You need an active OE membership to ride. Proof of 2024 OE Membership must be sent to the EMGC Secretary (equinemountedgamescanada@gmail.com) if not already provided.

Points for this competition will count towards overall season scores.

Complete entries consist of all required paperwork received by the Competition Committee and payment by e-transfer to the Treasurer (emgcpayments@gmail.com) by the deadline.  Please include the rider's name in the etransfer's note. No entries will be accepted after September 1, 2024.

Prompt start times will be implemented. If riders are late, they will be invited into the ring when it is safe to do so.

Event Format

Pairs

Parking

Please park trailers around the perimeter of the sand ring with space for other vehicles and trailers to get around. Vehicles without trailers can park by the barn and along the driveway on the grass.

Lunch

Bring your own. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own beverages and snacks.

Volunteering

All riders are required to identify a volunteer arena crew member in charge of set-up for their lane's equipment while they are riding. Additional Assistant Referees and Prop Crew volunteers are needed and appreciated throughout the day. The goal is to have each volunteer assist with at least one full division. This makes the day run as smoothly as possible.

Refunds

After the deadline, refunds will be provided only if your spot can be filled. Please contact Competition Committee Member, Megan (meganc.emgc@outlook.com), regarding medical, veterinary, or family emergency situations.

Weather Plans

The competition will be held regardless of weather (except in the event of thunder and lightning). If the competition is cancelled, competitors will be notified via email the day prior to the competition and fees will be refunded.

Arena

Footing of the arena is grass.

Important Reminder

It is important that each rider, spectator, and supporter respects the competition property.

Throughout the day and before you depart, please ensure that you have cleaned up after your horse, placed garbage in garbage cans, and that your trailer area is free of any hay, manure, or other debris. Please keep your horse away from any grass areas that we don’t have permission to use. No dogs, please.
