Jacksonville, FL – July 6, 2012 – The first annual Southeast Medal Finals is rapidly approaching this September 21-23, 2012 at the Jacksonville Equestrian Center in Jacksonville, Fla. The show is patterned after the successful and long-standing New England Medal Finals, giving riders in Zone 4 and Region 3, a chance to compete for the top honors in an array of classes. The Indoor show will feature hunter, jumper and equitation classes over the period of three days, with highlight classes that are sure to catch the exhibitors’ attention.
One of the main attractions for the hunter riders will be the 2012 USHJA Zone 4 Championships. The Championships are open to children, adult and pony competitors. The competition will be fierce as the top 25 horses or ponies in the USEF Zone 4 Standings vie for the prestigious championship title. Riders will have a chance to gain bonus zone points for their efforts in the Zone 4 Championship Stake.
The 2012 USHJA Zone 4 Championships will consist of the Children’s 14 & Under Hunters, Children’s 15-17 Hunters, Adult 18-35 Hunters, Adult 36 & Over Hunters, and the Children’s Hunter Pony divisions. Medals will be awarded to first through third in all of the stake classes, with riders earning ribbons for their efforts in all other classes of the division.
