Mark your Calendars for 2021!
It is our pleasure to extend to you our invitation to our third Lexington Carriage Classic June 24-26, 2021 at the Kentucky Horse Park. Heeding many of your great suggestions, we have made some changes to the show program in the hopes that we can continue to make the show more enjoyable for all.
In light of the pandemic, we will be adhering to all restrictions in place by the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the USEF during the show. We will keep competitors posted as to what restrictions will be in place closer to our dates in June. We hope that by that point in the summer many of the restrictions will be lifted. We will require masks to be worn by all persons on the showgrounds at all times (except when on a carriage in a competition class).
Juniors are encouraged to enter any open division and will be awarded points towards a Junior championship based on their placings. We have also waived entry fees for Junior competitors.
Among the many reasons we are proud to be a USEF-approved Local Competition are the year end awards offered by the USEF. As a reminder, horses and ponies need to be recorded with the USEF in order for points to be eligible for national, regional, or zone horse of the year awards. A further reminder to pair, multiple, and coaching competitors: the combinations for multiples must be declared to the USEF before the first show of the competition year in which they are competing for points to count towards year end awards. (See USEF Rule GR1125.)
New for 2021: The Lexington Carriage Classic Committee will be hosting a fun Driving Derby to be held following the last class on Saturday evening. A Driving Derby competition is a timed event and consists of one or more rounds over a course consisting of pairs of cones and marathon-type obstacles. This is separate from the USEF sanctioned event. Details are found on the Entry Blank downloadable below.
See you in June!
Thank you,
The Lexington Carriage Classic Committee
