    HITS Hudson Valley is located just two hours north of New York City in the heart of the famed Hudson Valley. The site is easily accessible from New England, New York, and beyond.

    About USDF Regional Championships

    These championships recognize the outstanding efforts of riders in each USDF region and provide an excellent opportunity for spectators to view the top competitors in their respective regions.  Additionally, the top junior/young rider, amateur, and open riders at each of the championships, who have submitted a declaration of intent and completed all other requirements, will receive an invitation to compete at the US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®. 

    Dina Sapienza of Great American Insurance Group added, “Our role as title sponsor of the regional championships has afforded a great opportunity to acknowledge outstanding individuals and the sport of dressage.”

    Competitors qualify for Great American/USDF Regional Championships by competing in designated qualifying classes throughout the year at USEF-licensed/USDF-recognized dressage competitions. 

    For more information on the regional championship program, or the US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®, visit the USDF website at www.usdf.org or contact regchamps@usdf.org.

    Founded in 1973, the United States Dressage Federation is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to education, recognition of achievement, and promotion of dressage.

    If you are part of a barn or have a group of horse friends, you could put together a barn gift basket of items to donate to ENYDCTA for us to sell in the auction. It would be fun.  


    How it works:

    *Contact Stephanie to donate an item, service, or group/barn basket to our online auction hosted by 32Auctions.com. 

    *You can go to 32Auctions to see your item and bid on other items or services.

    *Winnings will either be mailed at the winner’s expense or can be picked up at the banquet (decision to be made between winner and donator). 

    *The proceeds will go to ENYDCTA to help cover our expenses and to help reduce the costs of clinics & other educational programs.  


    Last year we auctioned off 52 items and raised over $3600 from 191 bids.  We could not have done this without the generous support of our donors.
