Show Management

  Welcome to the Show Management Department! 

This department has been designed as an information center for Show Managers, Show Secretaries and Trainers. Be sure to check it often for updates and news that may affect your show!

New Update 2008-05-12 

We have had a question pertaining to our new revised rule for the Children's Medal and how it applies to qualifying for Medal Finals for both this year and next. As others may have the same question, we thought it was important to address it for everyone. As you may recall, this year the Children's Medal specifications were changed to read as follows: 
 
"Open to Junior members of the CHJA who are eligible for Children's Hunter and who have not shown over a course at a Recognized show where fences exceeded 3'0". If you have ever qualified for or shown in a 3' Equitation Final including CHJA you are not eligible for the Children's Medal. The class consists of two phases..." 
 
The question was, if a rider has qualified for the 2008 Children's Medal Finals, can that rider step up and start showing in the CHJA Junior Medal classes, (earning points toward 2009)  during the period between the end of the 2008 qualifying period (when the 2009 period begins) and the actual 2008 CHJA Medal Finals, This period is approximately 2 weeks. 
 
The answer is a cautionary "yes". The rule does not prevent a rider from showing at the higher level, but please take care! If during this period you earned enough points to qualify for the 2009 Junior Medal Finals, you would then have "qualified for a 3' Equitation Final" and would no longer be eligible to show in the 2008 Children's Medal Finals. 

News Update 2008-04-15    
                        
Important! The following Pre Children's Equitation rule change was voted on and approved at the CHJA Board Meeting on April 14, 2008. It is now in effect.

PRE CHILDREN'S EQUITATION DIVISION

Open to junior riders who are eligible for Limit Equitation over fences as of December 1 of the current show year and have never shown over fences exceeding 2'6" at a recognized horse show. Riders may show horses or ponies. Fence height 2'0". At the same show, riders may not cross enter into Children's Equitation, Children's Pony Hunter, Pony Hunters, any Medal classes that exceed 2' or any class where fences exceed 2'6". No combinations permitted.

Note: With this change a rider may not enter Pre Childrens' Equitation and the CHJA Children's Medal at the same show.
