Wendy Masemer and Kristin Pascal Parisot organized the summer starter trials, combined test, and dressage show to raise money for maintenance of the cross country course at The Turner Farm in Great Falls.
Horses and riders competed in three different disciplines, dressage, the art of ballet on horseback; stadium jumping, or clearing obstacles in confined area, and cross-country, where the horse clears natural jumps in a field.
The horses are then graded on all the disciplines.
