Over the winter along with our website designer, we have have been working hard to revamp our website to make it as informational and easy to navigate as possible. With the tabs across the top of the website, we have divided the website into Horse Trials and the CIC. Sponsors, advertisers, vendors and the general public can find information and forms online. The CIC portions of the website will be updated in a few weeks to reflect 2012 so check back.

All competitors can check the "Key Links" section on the right hand side of the home page to see their entry status, ride times, provisional schedules, etc. There is even a link to a new website called mycoursewalk.com for virtual course walks.

New also for 2012 we have added a starter horse trials on Sunday the day after our May USEA recognized event and a schooling day after our June USEA recognized and starter horse trials weekend.

We have also added a blog where anyone can ask questions of our Organizer or just write their suggestions for how we can improve our events. Our organizer has written an article which has been published in the Aiken Horse this month. We have put the article on the blog to start the conversation off so check it out.

There are new photo galleries which include a volunteer photo gallery. Our volunteers are our greatest asset.

Entries open on February 28th for our April 14-15th horse trials. Please remember to enter early and get all your information in on time.

Make it a weekend at Plantation Field and check out the local attractions like Longwood Gardens and the Brandywine River Museum.

We look forward to a safe, bad weather-free and great 2012 season.
