Managing the Schedule

SP612 Managing the Schedule

1. From time to time, it may be necessary to change the schedule. It is incumbent on the manager to work with all affected exhibitors to negotiate such changes and to ensure those changes are posted and announced.

2. When the start of a class is delayed due to an exhibitor not being ready, or horses not showing up, a warning will be issued with two minutes time to report.

3. A class may be canceled if entries do not show up for their scheduled ride times.

4. In classes which compete collectively, officiating may not begin until the gate is closed or at the end of the two-minute call.

5. An order of go should be established in classes where horses compete individually.

6. It will be the responsibility and authority of management to determine whether to stop a performance due to inclement weather and/or emergency situation using the following guidelines:

a.) Management will advise how the show will reconvene once conditions support such. Management should make every effort to communicate and work with the exhibitors on the best plan forward. b.) If the show must be delayed a day which exhibitors did not expect to show, the horse show should provide some relief to the exhibitors, if not to refund all show fees affected by the delay.
