Time Flies...
Well, where did the time go? It feels like we just had the USDF Annual Convention and now the Executive Board Spring meeting has just finished up. Yikes! I thought I had more time and now I find we are into Spring. I'd, personally, like to file a complaint about the clocks picking up speed, which is grossly unfair. When I find out who to file the complaint with I'll get that right out. ;-)
Well, the "L" Program has been actively updating the teaching material and handouts. Some of you may have noticed as you've been the ones to see and hear the new revised material at the last few sessions. And the "L" Binder has been updated for the 2009 year. I am working with organizers and our USDF Marketing department to get the word out. Soon you should be getting a notice from me.
I'll be back soon to share some more notices and updates about the "L" Program.
As always feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns, lprogram@usdf.org.
Enjoy Spring!!

GDCTA's "L" Program Coming Soon...
“L” is for Learning about Evaluating Dressage Performance . . .
Aspiring judges-to-be who wish to be participants in the USDF “L” program can sign up now! It happens fast – no dragging your feet for this program, or you will be left behind!
Don’t want to be a judge, but still want to know what the judges are looking for?
This is the time to find out! GDCTA is hosting the USDF “L” Program beginning in March.
Take advantage of this learning opportunity by auditing the very the same program that teaches prospective judges what they need to know. Auditors are absolutely welcome, and encouraged, to attend Part 1 of this educational program! You can attend one session, two sessions or all three. It’s up to you.
Part 1 consists of sessions A-C, which will be held at the lovely Shannondale Farm in Alpharetta, Georgia.
March 14-15, 2009: Session A consists of all Saturday and Sunday morning lecture, including thought-provoking questions, photos, graphics and DVD footage, giving an introduction to judging and biomechanics followed by Sunday afternoon spent observing demonstration horses and riders at Training though Second levels.
May 9-10, 2009: Session B will cover judging criteria for gaits, paces, movements and figures
July 25-26, 2009: Session C is about collective marks, equitation, rider biomechanics, basics and freestyle.
To make the most of your auditing experience, a little time spent reviewing the USEF rule book (usef.org) and the training scale in advance of the sessions would be worth your time.
Find the auditor registration forms on the GDCTA website homepage www.gdcta.org.
There is also a need for demonstration riders. That application can also be found at www.gdcta.org.
Auditor fees: $60 for each session, includes lunch and hand outs
