Upcoming Eric Smiley “Walking” Clinic at Waredaca (Maryland)

By USEA

The Adult Rider Training Three Day at Waredaca (Laytonsville, Maryland) has brought Eric to the US to help in the educational portion of the T3D and Area II has arranged for him to stay over for two days and provide that educational benefit to all members of Area II. This “clinic” is open to all Area II members! Come and enjoy this fabulous opportunity on October 22-23.

Check out the schedule: http://www.usea2.net/images/stories/Revised_Eric_Smiley_T3D_Schedule.pdf

This clinic is open to all, Adults, Young Riders, Juniors, Parents and Trainers. It is designed to be a “walking” clinic where the participants will be outfitted with radios with headsets so that everyone can hear Eric and benefit from his valuable knowledge and insight into Eventing. It is a unique opportunity to hear and see what a Judge is looking for in the Dressage Phase, then there will be the opportunity to go out on Cross Country on two separate days and walk courses, watch horses go cross country, and watch and walk Show Jumping courses. There will be evening lectures and lots of opportunities for one on one with Eric.

The clinic is being sponsored by your Area II Council in conjunction with the Area II Adult Rider Sponsored T3D. It is a unique opportunity to spend important educational time with a top FEI Judge, Clinician and Competitor on site at an event.

Eric Smiley is a world renowned eventer, FEI judge and trainer from Ireland. (See www.ericsmiley.com)
