The LVDA created a Youth Development Program in 2018.   This program is designed to provide education, training, and competition opportunities for our young riders under the age of 22, in the sport of dressage.  The program includes Youth Clinics/Lectures, separate youth year end awards, Youth Team Competitions, and Youth Scholarship opportunities.

 

LVDA Youth Team

The LVDA Youth Program is looking for LVDA Youth Members who are interested in being part of our LVDA Youth Team for entering in various Youth Team Competitions.  If you are interested in learning more contact Jen Koch.

 

LVDA Youth Scholarship Fund

The LVDA Youth Development Program is proud to continue our Youth Scholarship Fund program for 2021 which will allow youth members to “Build Your Own” Youth Scholarship. Funds may be used for dressage opportunities of your choosing (clinics, show fees, team competitions, etc.)  Read More on Youth Scholarship Fund

Youth Volunteering

The LVDA would love to see our Youth participating in our Volunteer Program and acquire volunteer hours to qualify them for our Year-End Awards.   They do not have to know how to perform all of the various volunteering position duties to be able to volunteer!  LVDA will teach them via our "Shadow" volunteer option.   Want to learn how to be a Scribe or Scorer or Steward?   Our youth can volunteer for those positions as a "Shadow" and work alongside one of our experienced volunteers to watch and learn.
