What is the schooling show series?
TerryAllen Farms holds three Schooling Shows where riders can collect points for year end awards in their respective classes. Schooling shows are open to TerryAllen riders as well as outside riders. These shows help inexperienced riders to obtain show ring experience before moving on to rated shows. Schooling shows are also a wonderful place to bring a horse that needs experience off its own premises.
