Jan 11th Schooling Show at TerraNova!
Yes, it is happening and entries are still open.
TerraNova has lifted the extra biosecurity requirements so no health certificate required. But you must have proof of vaccinations and negative Coggins submitted with your entry. Schooling on Saturday is allowed from 1pm to 5:30pm.
We have a show photographer - so this is a great opportunity to get great pictures of you and your horse in a beautiful setting.
Hope to see you there. Contact Donna Sloben at 941-704-8280 with any questions.

ANNOUNCEMENT - Alpha Dressage Association and TerraNova Equestrian Center announce that the Alpha Dressage Schooling Show on December 14, 2025 has been rescheduled to January 11, 2026 due to concerns related to the EHV-1 outbreak and the welfare of our horses. This difficult decision resulted from the necessity for TerraNova to continuously comply with the heightened biosecurity protocols currently imposed by USEF and USDF. These requirements include a 14-day health certificate issued by a licensed veterinarian for each horse and taking of each horse’s temperature upon arriving and each day present at the facility, in addition to the normal Coggins and vaccination records requirements. Alpha Dressage understands it may be difficult for our schooling show competitors and our volunteers to comply with these additional requirements given the limited time frame ahead of the December 14th show date. Delaying the show to Jan. 11th will provide an Alpha schooling show at the TerraNova facility at the beginning of the show season and, if necessary, allow time for competitors to comply with these additional biosecurity requirements if they remain in place.

If you have submitted an entry for the Dec. 14, 2025 show, please contact Donna Sloben at [email protected] and let her know if you want to keep your entry in place for the Jan. 11, 2026 show or want a refund.

We look forward to seeing you January 11th at TerraNova for the Alpha Dressage schooling show.
