Carriage Driving Clinic in McDonald, PA

by Jessica Schroeder, USTA Outreach & Membership Enrichment Coordinator

Columbus, OH — Have you always wanted to try driving a horse but didn’t know where to start? The 2013 Carriage Driving 101 Clinic will be on Saturday (Feb. 16) at Tipperary Farms in McDonald, Pa. (approximately 30 minutes north of The Meadows Racetrack). The cost is $100 for the day, which starts at 9 a.m., and includes lunch.

Topics to be covered include harnessing, balancing a cart, show clothing, driving games, and safety.

There will also be a variety of carriages and harnesses available for viewing. Speakers will be in the morning, with driving in the afternoon. Experienced driving horses will be provided — you do not need to bring a horse.

More information and registration forms are available at this link.

The USTA and the American Driving Society have teamed up to present Standardbred breed awards for those involved in competitive driving. For more information, visit the ADS website at www.americandrivingsociety.org.
