Horse Shows
From first-time competitors to more experienced riders, Cedarhill offers a welcoming path into the show ring through grassroots, C-rated, and A-rated competition. Many of our homegrown riders who started in the walk trot division have gone on to compete successfully in some of the most prestigious venues.
A supportive way to start showing
Cedarhill Farm hosts and attends horse shows designed to help riders build confidence, gain experience, and enjoy the excitement of competition. Whether your rider is just getting started or preparing for higher levels, our team helps guide each step.

Our Grassroots Shows are designed for beginner and intermediate riders, including Cedarhill riders and riders from outside barns. These one-day local shows offer a fun, approachable introduction to competition in a supportive environment. It is from these riders that Cedarhill grows our show team that goes on to showing at the more advanced levels.
