In equitation classes, the judge is looking at the rider’s seat, hands, guidance, and control of their horse/pony. In pleasure classes, the judge is looking to see if your horse/phone would be a “pleasure” to ride, by looking at the horse/pony’s manners, and gate execution.  Additional information on divisions and classes can be found in our rule book here. 

 MOHSS will make every effort to have a food truck at each event. Follow our Facebook page for updates on food truck status.
