Earlier this week, Kent Horse Trials announced its cancellation after 44 years, and as a result, Larkin Hill Horse Trials, which will be held June 29-30 in North Chatham, New York, has stepped up to offer more divisions to help competitors.
The event, which was slated to host Beginner Novice, Novice, Training, Modified/Training, and Preliminary divisions, will now offer a recognized Starter division on Saturday and extra Beginner Novice and Novice divisions on Sunday.
"We are hoping we can offer something for everyone!" a post on Larkin Hill's Facebook page read. "This of course, will take lots of volunteers to make it all work! Anyone that is interested should contact Crystal Santos, our amazing Volunteer Coordinator! You can contact her at: [email protected] or text her at 860-514-2503"
Larkin Hill Horse Trials opens for entries on May 14 and closes on June 11. For more information, head to the USEA's prizelist.

Let me introduce you to a key building block for confidence in the equestrian athlete: Your Own Voice. This is the voice that’s with you 24/7, being fed by things you’ve done, people who have influenced you, and things that have happened to you. It provides commentary, opinions, and general narration about your life and experiences. It emerges out of your thoughts and emotions, and can stir both.
