Important information regarding COVID-19 and the CDHJC:
Dear Members,
We, the members of the CDHJC Board, hope all of you are healthy and keeping your sense of humor. We look forward to the day when we meet ringside once again.
We know that everyone is eager to return to some sense of normalcy and many are wondering when we will be able to show again. The CDHJC is paying attention to directives and guidelines given both from the USEF as well as NY State. With these in mind, the recognition by the CDHJC of future horse shows depends on when NY State allows sporting events to resume. We have amended our schedule of horse shows to reflect projected NY State Phase 4 opening date. We hope that these shows will be allowed to run but with the understanding that none of them are actually recognized until NY State grants permission. Please note that once given permission, the CDHJC will expect horse shows to follow COVID-19 rules and guidelines as set forth by the USEF and NY State.
If you have any questions, please contact Karen via email, khurff@skidmore.edu. Stay safe.
The CDHJC will follow the guidelines as set forth by the US Government, New York State, the USEF which means that effective until further notice the CDHJC will not recognize any competitions and no points will be awarded.
