We had a wonderful Horse Show on October 31, 2026! Thank you, friends and families, for coming out to support our riders!
This was our first horse show at ManeGait since 2023, after a break while The Beacon Project construction was underway. The show gives our riders a chance to show their families and friends the skills they’ve built in their lessons. Riders compete in two classes. In Trail, horse and rider work as a team to get through a course of obstacles, like walking over poles, weaving around cones, or stopping at a set spot. In Equitation, judges look at the rider: their position in the saddle, how they use their hands and legs, and how well they guide their horse. Ribbons go to the top four places in each class. High Point awards recognize the riders with the best combined results.
