  DO YOU HOST GDCTA-RECOGNIZED SCHOOLING SHOWS?

  
  

  Dear GDCTA-recognized schooling show organizers:

  The GDCTA is offering your volunteers an opportunity to participate in this volunteer incentive program by volunteering AT YOUR SHOWS.

  We are offering this incentive to your show volunteers who are GDCTA members, you simply sign up and email the volunteers to us.

  
  

  The $25.00 opt-in fee (https://gdcta.wildapricot.org/Sys/Store/Products/291510) covers all your shows in a calendar year. We are now using annual registrations so check the event calendar to register your shows (here for 2025: https://gdcta.org/event-6016344)

  
  

  Once your shows are registered, all you have to do is send Caren Caverly (ccaverly@comcast.net) by email your volunteers names and total number of hours worked on an excel sheet (we will determine if they are GDCTA members and eligible to have their hours count). GDCTA will promote your shows as participating in this program. If you are interested, let Caren know.

  GDCTA is a member-focused and member-run organization that depends on volunteers!  We encourage you to become involved in any of the many activities we offer.  Have a new idea?  Bring it to the board at a meeting.

  Share the excitement from inside the events: 

  • Meet international judges, competitors, and learn how the competitions work.

  • Scribing at a show is a great educational experience to help you improve as a rider! 

  • Help a Junior rider put a winning sash on her horse for the victory gallop! 

  • Participate as a ring steward in order to better understand our sport. 

  • If you’re a trainer, volunteer your time for a Kudzu Klinic.

  The GDCTA Grant has been established to provide funding support for GDCTA member-riders who are working to sharpen their riding skills. Four grants of $800* each will be offered to GDCTA members for concentrated work with a trainer of their choice within one year of receiving the grant award.

  Mission

  The mission of the GDCTA Grant Program is to provide educational opportunities to members who have demonstrated exceptional commitment to and/or excellence in the sport as well as service and ambassadorship within the Association.

   

  The grant is meant for a GDCTA member to have the opportunity to be in a training situation that is not readily available during the course of his/her daily pattern. Grant monies must be used to participate in educational programs that include, but are not limited to: seminars, workshops, clinics and training programs offered by recognized or certified instructors.

   

  Requirements

  These grants represent an investment by GDCTA. The recipient understands that the membership will benefit as a result of the recipient’s experience, therefore it is a requirement that the recipient will:

  • give a verbal report at a GDCTA board meeting as soon as possible after their training is complete

  *I understand that I will receive an initial $600 of the grant after details of my training are confirmed, and one month before my training; the balance in the amount of $200 will be sent to me when the GDCTA newsletter editors receive my training experience article.

  
  

  One grant will be awarded in each of the following categories:

  • Adult Amateur – Dressage

  • Professional

  • Combined Training

  • Jr/YR

   

  Eligibility:

  • GDCTA members in good standing.
