D ear Noda Members,
I know that it is officially Spring and the snow has melted, but 24
degrees on March 28th? Come on, now! I am very grateful however, for the warmth and sunshine we have had this past month. There is hope -- as we choke on hair from shedding horses, we smile and enjoy the dawn of the long awaited new season.
NODA committees have been crazy busy getting everything put together for the upcoming show season. You should have received your copy of the 2015 Schooling Show Prize List by the time you get this NODA News. But…Ooops! There is some very important information that was inadvertently left out of your printed copy of the prize list.
Missing subjects under the heading “NODA SCHOOLING SHOW RULES
About half of the Entry requirements, Scratches & Refunds, Ring Size and Awards.
Prize list date error: The date of the Rocky River Schooling Show is July 12th.
The correct information is in the online version, and there is a single sheet that you can download and print to keep in your hard copy.
Please also note: The date of the Rocky River Schooling Show is July 12th. It is incorrect in your printed prize list but correct on the website.
If you are planning to show and apply for year-end awards, please be sure you know and understand everything in the prize list this year. There are changes to eligibility requirements for both the championship show and year-end awards. We will always do our absolute best to make sure that all information is available. As a competitor, it is your responsibility to know and understand the rules. If you don’t understand something in the prize list or have a question about anything, please contact your member liaison, Kathy Kirchner, [email protected], or Kara Maruszak, Schooling Manager and Chair, [email protected], or Janeen Langowski-Grava, [email protected]. There is also an extensive contact list in this newsletter and on our website.
Our first schooling show of the series is less than six weeks away at Chagrin Valley Farms. The opening date is April 22nd and closing date is May 6th. Remember that we now have a Professional division for both the Championship Show and year-end awards. After this tough winter, what better way to get your horse(s) back in the swing of things than by attending NODA schooling Shows?
I hope you are as excited as I am about the Recognized Shows this year. We have a lot of work to do and some of us have had our noses to the grindstone since we made the official announcement last month. Our goal is to host quality shows now and into the future, shows that will provide an enjoyable experience for all competitors and spectators. Toward accomplishing that goal, we have hired Kevin Bradbury to manage the shows, but there is a lot of work still to do, including everything necessary to get the show grounds set up and ready. We have to procure and organize the volunteers,

entice sponsors and advertisers, prepare the program and information for the prize list, and a great many other little things that make a show successful. If you can help in anyway, please contact Niki Sackman, [email protected] or me, Dee Liebenthal, [email protected]. Let’s put meaning back in the word “community” and come together as a supportive dressage community and help make this the best darn event there is. I know we can do it. We have the members; we just need a little of your support.
We are really in need of a person to help with Sponsorships and Advertisers, someone who will keep track of the data and do follow-up. After consulting with experts, we think that our members will contact their friends and families and ask them to support us with their advertising and sponsorships. If we are correct, then we just need someone who is organized and has good computer skills to keep everything organized.
Soon, those who were lucky enough to escape the winter weather will be coming home from Florida, South Carolina, and other warmer states. Maybe you lucky NODA members with the tans would like to tell us about the highlights of your time away, and/or share your pictures and stories of a good lesson or clinic you participated in with a particular trainer. Those of us who had to tough it out this particularly harsh winter could use the good news of your southern experiences. We are always on the lookout for good cover photos for the NODA News, so keep that in mind when sharing. We need an 8.5 x 11 format in a photo type file.
Ok, let’s all come together and work to make all of NODA’s shows shine this year and into the future. I am certain we can do it.
Thank you, and Happy Spring!
Dee Liebenthal, President

Please Support the 4th Annual Dusty Boots Kentucky Derby Benefit
D ear NODA Members, We are at the starting gate...preparing to
celebrate a truly iconic American experience for horse riders, horse lovers and horse racing enthusiasts...The 141st Run for the Roses! For those of us who cannot or will not be in Louisville for the Kentucky Derby, Valley Riding offers a fun and exciting alternative at:
The Around the Corner Saloon & Cafe 18616 Detroit Road, Lakewood, Ohio
Saturday, May 2nd, from 4-7 p.m. Tickets are $40 per person, $l5.00 is tax deductible. Only 300 tickets available. Call (216)267-2525 for ticket information. *Please note the event is NOT at the stable this year. The Around the Corner is located "around the corner" as you travel west from Lakewood on Detroit and before you cross the bridge into Rocky River. Our mission statement reads: Valley Riding, Inc. is a compassionate horse community, committed to educating and empowering children and adults by providing enriching opportunities to engage with horses in a metropolitan setting. For over 25 years, Valley Riding has lived up to that mission through its therapeutic riding program, urban youth outreach program for economically disadvantaged families, group English horseback riding lessons, dressage instruction, jumping clinics, educational tours, scouting programs, summer pony and horse camps. A unique and valuable community resource, Valley Riding is located in the heart of west side neighborhoods. As NODA members, you are well aware that keeping horses within easy reach of an urban population is both challenging and expensive and each passing year brings more obstacles to overcome.
Valley Riding is active and committed to producing young riders for the NODA community. We are pleased to offer two NODA schooling shows this summer. And, Valley Riding enjoys the friendship, commitment, and generosity from the Northern Ohio Dressage community in return. I hope we can count on each of you to continue to support our efforts. It promises to be fun. We will start with cocktails, bluegrass music, watch the race on Around the Corner's many big screen TV's, live auction prizes for each horse in the race, Chinese auction, raffle prizes, and a hat parade and contest. There will be horse-related prizes as well as prizes for restaurants and activities (when you can get away from the barn or for the unfortunate non-horse person in your life.) Every single dollar raised directly benefits Valley Riding's horseback riding programs and scholarship funds. Please visit us on Facebook or call (216) 267-2525 for information on how to become a sponsor, donate an auction prize, advertise in Valley Riding's Racing Form, and purchase tickets. With your help and that of others like you, we are confident that Valley Riding and its horses and ponies will remain in Cleveland Metroparks to serve future generations of horse lovers and riders. So...put on a hat, bring your friends, family and fellow riders and come to the Around The Corner and join 300 racing enthusiasts to hear those THREE WORDS...And They're Off!!! SEE YOU AT THE DERBY!!! Margaret McElhany and Valley Riding's Board of Trustees

I n last month’s article, “Identifying Common Soundness Issues in the Dressage Horse” I talked about soundness issues frequently affecting dressage
horses and symptoms, diagnoses and possible courses of treatment for those issues. Of course, prevention is always preferable to treatment, so this month I wanted to talk about some possible ways to prevent injury to your horse. Fitness, fitness, fitness One of the best ways to prevent injury to your horse is probably one of the most obvious. Make sure he’s fit to do the job you’re asking him to do. Use common sense when training a horse, whether it’s a younger green horse, or an old schoolmaster stepping back into the show ring. Take it back to a basic level – your horse is an athlete, just like you are, and his workouts require the same elements as your own balanced fitness routine would. Adequate warm up and cool down time is essential, his muscles, tendons, ligament and joints all need time to warm up before he’s really asked to exert himself, and he needs to cool down gradually in order to prevent soreness and muscle damage. Ten to fifteen minutes of both warm-up and cool down time should be part of your daily riding routine. Put some thought into your riding routine, know your horse’s limitations, and stay within them. If the horse has been out of work, or is stepping up to a new level, increase your workouts gradually in both length and intensity. Generally, a lower level show horse will require at least 4 days per week of consistent work in order to stay fit. Incorporate some gymnastic exercises to help your horse use different muscle groups and learn to carry himself correctly. Keeping your horse balanced, supple, off the forehand, and using himself as correctly as possible will help to prevent undue stress on his joints. As far as fitness is concerned, one of the easiest things to do to when you’re in a crunch for time, or when the horse is fresh, is lunging. However, studies have shown that lunging can have adverse effects on horses. This is mostly because of the fact that most lunging is done with the horse on a relatively small circle. Excessive work on a small circle can cause undue stress on your horse’s joints, as well as causing muscle soreness and fatigue, and possibly injury. Consider free lunging in a larger area, or even ground driving as an alternative to the small, repetitive, tight circles involved with traditional lunging.
Turnout and R&R What type of turnout routine, if any, does your horse have? I frequently hear that many show barns, particularly those with high value horses, opt for very limited to no turnout. Many show horses are also traveling week after week and showing multiple times per month. This can take both a mental and physical toll on your horse. Turnout is the horse’s natural way of keeping himself fit. When turned out, most horses spend some of their time running and playing with friends, or at the very least, walking almost constantly while eating grass. This gives their joints a chance to keep working, instead of standing stagnant in a stall. This can often make a big difference in horses who suffer from arthritis and stiffness in the joints. Mentally, it’s the horse’s way of blowing off steam and reducing stress, thus reducing fatigue. Every horse is different, and admittedly, some horses don’t enjoy turnout time. However, if you’re able to find a good, stable turnout routine that works for your horse, he will almost surely benefit from it. Even if you’re not big on turnout, make sure you’re giving your horse enough R&R time in between shows. Constant travel and the stress of new environments can also take a toll on your horse over time, and it’s important to recognize the benefit of resting comfortably at home. Proper Care and Nutrition If you’re sensing a theme here, it’s that soundness and injury prevention are best achieved by looking at the “whole horse.” This means that not only should your horse be fit for his purpose, but you also need to make sure his care and nutrition are matched to his purpose as well. A horse showing at the grand prix level is going to have much different needs that my training level dressage horse. A horse who lacks proper nutrition may not have the adequate muscle strength or energy to perform at his best, while a horse who is overweight may put undue stress on his joints. Both of these issues create a higher chance of injury. Some factors to consider when thinking about the nutritional needs of your horse include his breed, his level of competition, his training routine, and his environment. A really interesting site to visit, if you’d like a custom analysis done on your horse’s feed program based on your individual training and care routine is www.feedxl.com.
Preventing Soundness Issues in the Dressage Horse By April Woodward
NODA News 2015 page 12
In addition to proper feed, and equally as important is proper farrier care. It’s important to realize that when it comes to shoeing – not all horses are created equal, and what works for one, may not work for another. The general recommendation is that horses should be re-shod every 6-8 weeks. However, for many horses that cycle can be too long, or occasionally too short, depending on the conformation of the horse and his individual needs. Work with your farrier to find a routine that works best for your horse, monitor his progress throughout his shoeing cycle, and make adjustments where needed. Always make sure that your horse’s hoof is balanced from left to right, with the inside and outside hoof walls as close to equal length as possible. You should also ideally be able to see an unbroken line from the pastern to the hoof without a forward or backward break to it. Appropriate heel support is also necessary, and the shoe should always be large enough to fully support the horse’s hoof walls. Know Your Horse Lastly, and simply, know your horse. Be familiar with his routine and his care – and pay attention to how it’s working for him. What is his body condition? How much
is he sweating after a ride, and how hard is he breathing? Does the workload seem too heavy for him, or is it easy? Learn what is “normal” for him and observe changes. Is he suddenly cranky about picking up the canter, when he didn’t used to be? Is he refusing or failing to perform movements that he can normally do easily? Often a change in your horse’s behavior is the first sign that and injury could be brewing somewhere, and catching it as early as possible and preventing damage can be very important. Conclusion The bottom line is that injury prevention has to do with more than just your horse’s joints and tendons. It’s about realizing that your horse is an athlete, and treating him like you would any other athlete, making sure that you look at the big picture, including fitness, nutrition, stable management/routine and other factors. Thanks for reading – and I wish you all a very happy, healthy and successful show season with your horse!
