Ctr on Sunday, July 30. For those that don't live in CA. ETI is a large club dedicated to preseving horses, trails, and equestrian activites. There are small clubs within the large club known as 'Corrals'. Each corral does its 'own thing' according to its membership. Our corral is interested in trail riding and driving, others are interested in dressage, etc. The ETI convention is a 3 day event of almost every conceivable type of competition: dressage, jumping, trail trials, gymkana, western, drill team, and of course DRIVING! OK, so back to driving... The ETI convention driving classes are open to ANY HITCH- minis to drafts, singles to multiples. A gaited horse is WELCOME in the obstacle classes- driven trail, cones, gambler's choice, long-lining obstacle. So tell all your gaited horse friends who can't find a place to drive to 'come on down!!'. Contact me privately for more info. I try to accommodate EVERYBODY for the driving show. We usually have a great time.
