2012
 
Stormont CTR - 40 km Open, 29km Novice

June 10, 2012 - Finch/Berwick, Ontario   

Louise and Jacques made a deal with the rest of the Exec, if we put on a CTR for them to ride in, they would manage and run the Endurance so the other Exec members could ride then. Deal done and SVAHA will be hosting an OCTRA sanctioned Competitive Trail Ride this year!
 
Stormont Endurance FEI 1*/2*, OCTRA, AERC, AHA & EC

Sept 2, 2012 - North Stormont, Ontario   

With close on 11 years of event managing experience, we decided to tackle running a FEI/CEI Endurance event. Looking at what Canadian riders need to advance and qualify for Canadian Team nominations, we went with a 1* (80 km) and 2* (120 km) rides. Running in conjunction will be OCTRA/AERC/AHA Local and Equine Canada Bronze sanctioned Open rides at the same distances. An OCTRA mileage ride of 25 miles (40 km) will also be held for Novice riders & horses. FEI clinics are also in the plans and we are working on a new ride camp base with loads of room. Stay tuned!
 
FEI Level II Judges Course & FEI Veterinary Course

Aug 30 - Sept1, 2012 - Finch, Ontario   

This Level 2 Judges Course is open to anyone who is interested in learning more about the sport and not necessarily wishing to be a FEI Official. Level 1 is not required in order to take Level 2. It is strongly recommended by Endurance Canada that all support crew, riders and owners of horses that will be potentially competing in FEI Championships to take this course. You never know when it might become mandatory, so take it now and don't have to worry later!

The FEI Veterinarian course is open to all vets interested in the Sport of Endurance and is recommended for all veterinarians that also care for endurance horses as part of their practice. This 1.5 day course counts towards CE credits with the Ontario Veterinarian College.
