CDCTA Fall H.T.

<strong></strong><strong>Please read omnibus carefully and check back for regular updates. Please also see CDCTA.com for information regarding the Fall HT. We are working hard to make sure we can run our event and minimize risk for competitors and volunteers. All persons entering the show grounds will need to have a USEF/USEA wavier on file with competition management. This is a change from previous years in which only riders were required to submit paperwork. Links to the form can be found on our website CDCTA.com and can be emailed to the secretary.</strong>
