Showing During COVID
a word from our Show Manager, Ellen Corob:
Dear SBC CDS Show Community,
It is with great regret that we must inform you today our SBC CDS Summer Dressage Show is being forced to postpone.
We were overwhelmed to see all the entries submitted before the deadline and were clearly going to have a full show with a waitlist! We had a very well planned COVID-19 prevention plan, as you would expect with a USEF sanctioned event and our dedicated show committee. However, much to our dismay, the SB County’s regulations have recently changed to disallow all horse shows. We are disappointed with both the change of policy and the inconsistent authorizations within the department. We had prior authorization and there are many horse shows in other areas of CA that are running successfully and safely. Know that we have done everything in our power to persuade the SB County, to no avail.
We continue to work with the SB County for the future and are hopeful to bring this show to Earl Warren in the early Fall. As things progress in this fluid unpredictable season, we will keep you posted, and hopeful we can bring this show to fruition.
Thank you for your continued patience and support, we will forge forward in a positive manner believing that 'This too shall pass'.
All the best,
Gina and Karen
