The article above appeared in the Newsletter in December 2001. Since then the Championship Classes have become part of open schooling shows. Alice Semke’s original intent is still honored as the horse/rider combination must qualify for the class where the test must be ridden from memory without a whip. The classes are now pinned in sections ( junior, amateur, master, and open) and Combined Test and Event Classes have been added.
The Combined Test and Dressage Classes were not held in 2024 but will return.
