HORSE TRIALS

Pownal, Maine


August 11 - 12, 2007

MECTA (Maine Combined Training Association) is once again hosting the annual Snowfields Horse Trials, located on Lawrence Road in Pownal, Maine. This is the only USEA (United States Eventing Association) event in the state of Maine. Snowfields is a showcase for horses and riders from all over New England and beyond. There are sand dressage rings and bright show-jumping courses on rolling terrain. The country courses (also on rolling terrain) give horses and riders an opportunity to gallop through huge open fields and woods full of inviting jumps including banks, drops, ditches and water. Beginner Novice, Novice and Training divisions are offered.
