However, no credit cards will be charged and no checks deposited until we are certain that the shows can be held safely. At that time all entries will be considered definite entries and will become subject to the show policy regarding scratches as outlined in the prize list.
We have developed protocols to ensure the safety of everyone involved in the horse show environment once horse shows start again. These procedures were arrived at with the guidance of state and local health authorities as well as USEF, and will be published soon for review. The driving force for all involved will be the health and safety of all exhibitors, their employees and show staff.
We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and maintain communication with the Kentucky Horse Park, state and local health officials and USEF. Should we determine that the shows can’t be held safely we will notify all affected parties immediately. In the meantime, we will distribute any updates by email and social media.
