C3 testing in August:

We wish our Covered Bridge 'C3 Candidates' the best of luck at their testing at Spring Run on the weekend of August 12.  This is now a national level testing and the girls are working hard to be prepared.  We have nine candidates: Kristen Bednarski, Rachel Medinger, Emma Pridham, Emily Moscoe, Jesse Rockhold, Olivia Ford, Kelsey Harja, Natalie Hargis and Madeline Hundley. 

Guidelines for C Level Testings:  

C1 - You and your horse should be either preparing for or already competing at Beginner Novice Level at Horse Trials or at Rally.  You need to be able to jump a 2'9 course with confidence, ride in the open at a speed of 350 mpm (a medium canter), and apply a shipping bandage.  Your Maintenance Record Book must be completed with at least 6 months of information plus the yearly shots/ tests/etc. info.  Costs in each expense category need to be totaled. 

C2 - You and your horse should be currently riding at the Novice Level either at Rally or at Horse Trials.  You need to be able to jump a 3'0 course confidently, ride without stirrups at all gaits, longe a horse and be able to apply both shipping and stable bandages.  A written outline for a 6-8 week feeding and conditioning program for any specific competition is required, plus you need to assist in supervised, unmounted instructional sessions for ‘D’s – Rally Camp counts toward this requirement.  Record Book must cover 9 months plus the yearly shots/ tests/etc. info. 

*FYI – You must be at C2 level by the time of MidSouth Regional Rally to be eligible for

National Championships at the Novice and Training Level.

 

C3 - This is a national testing that has its own examiners and is scheduled as the need arises at various locations throughout the country.  This level requires jumping at a height of 3'3 and the ability to ride at the Training Level on the flat and cross-country.  Record Book must cover a year.  You must be 13 years old as of January 1 in the year of the test.  Call your DC no later than December if you would like to test in the coming year - she has to apply for dates early in the year if it is to be scheduled here in Louisville.

 If your horse is not capable of moving up, you may borrow a horse for these testings - your rating is determined by your knowledge and abilities, not your horse's limitations.  If you have already competed at Beginner Novice or above in Horse Trials, you should test up to a ‘C’ level in order to attend Eventing Rally.  Sign up for testings with your DC - they will not be scheduled otherwise.

 The latest 'C' Standards, the Maintenance Record Book and instructions are available for download at Pony Club Forms on the CBPC web site, covered.ponyclub.org.  Outlines are in your Quiz binder or contact Peggi if you need another copy.
