SEDA Junior Classic Returning in 2026

The SEDA Junior Classic is SEDA’s all-junior show.  It’s grounded in fun and learning. The show has been on a hiatus, but due to high demand, SEDA is thrilled to welcome it back.  

The Junior Classic will be scheduled annually in June and seeks to provide both dressage and combined test classes, as well as few other fun non-traditional classes.  The show will include both ridden and non-ridden learning opportunities to include one-on-one time with the dressage judge to review their test.  Read more here

Volunteer Coordinator Needed

We all know how essential volunteers are to our events. SEDA is in need of someone to take on the role of Volunteer Coordinator. Tasks will include: working with show organizers to fill and schedule all volunteers needed, follow up with volunteers to ensure they arrive, being on hand (or appoint someone if you can’t be there) to serve as a point of contact for volunteers at the show, tracking volunteer hours. If this sounds like something you’d like to take on, please contact Nicole.

Sponsors Needed!

One of the ways to earn volunteer hours is by getting sponsors for SEDA. Consider sponsoring something yourself or asking people or businesses you know to sponsor our events. Use the SEDA Sponsorship Flyer for additional information. The earlier in the year we obtain sponsors, the more exposure they will get…and we want to give our sponsors LOTS of exposure!
