When submitting links to entries, could you please submit them via a note to our group? Comments do not show up in our moderator's mail, so it's possible that we may never see entries posted through a comment. I'll try my best to keep up with the comments, but it's not always possible.

Welcome to the Equine Competition Coalition’s Grand Opening Mini Show!

Start Date:  3-9-12
End Date:  6-1-12
(for the HARPG Show Directory)
Event Type:  Association Event (ECC)
Class/Classes: Halter, 3DE, SJ, XC, Dressage, Hunters, Racing, Western Pleasure, Reining, Barrel Racing, Trail, Liberty, Gaited/Saddleseat, Driving, Endurance
Restrictions: None

Rules:

- You do not need to be a member of the group to participate, but if you join and register your horses, they become eligible for extra bonuses and prizes.
- Tracing is allowed, just credit your sources.
- No premade lines or free line arts, unless you commissioned them from someone yourself.
- Each horse may only enter each event once, although they may enter as many classes as they are trained in.
- No limit to how many times a rider can enter a class.
- Headshots are accepted. Full body and half body shots are accepted as well, but they will NOT gain you extra points.
- No shading required.
- No background required.
- No pre-registration required. Just link to your entries here, or note us with them.
- Bit less entries are fine, just make sure to state in the artist’s description that you intended for it to be that way, otherwise you will get tack points off.
- No especially harsh bits (shouldn‘t be much of an issue).
- If classes reach 20 entrants or more, they will be split in half so that more horses can place.
- The Three Day Event is judged separately from individual show jumping, dressage, and cross country events. Your horse may enter all four classes if you wish, but you will need to draw 3 separate images for the three day event.
- Images for the Three Day Event may be compiled into 1 image or three separate images, whichever you please. EACH ENTRY WILL BE JUDGED INDIVIDUALLY. The score for eventing will be out of 75 instead of 25. They are still judged the same, however.

Available Events:

- Three Day Eventing (requires a headshot per phase, these may be compiled into 1 deviation OR 3 separate)
- Show Jumping
- Cross Country
- Dressage
- Hunters (both OF and US combined)
- Racing (surfaces are combined for this show)
- Endurance
- Barrel Racing
- Reining
- Western Pleasure
- Trail
- Gaited/Saddleseat
- Driving (Both team and individual are combined. If entering as a team, include all horses, not just one. A few headshots posted in one deviation is completely acceptable.)
- Liberty
- Halter

Judging commences as follows, and follows a percentage scale:

/20 - RNG
/5 - Correct Tack (look up pictures of bridles if you are unsure)
+2 - Story (Have fun, get to know your horses and riders better! Anything longer than four sentences is fine)

Total: /25
Highest percentage possible is 108%.

Prizes:

- Ribbons for 1st through 6th place, participation ribbons for everyone else. *Ribbons now viewable! See them here.
- For each first place winner, an extra 2 points for their horse (towards the point rankings and system) on top of the extra points already being gained because it is an affiliated show. (For details on how you gain points from shows, go here: equinecompcoa.deviantart.com/j… )
