USA Working Equitation
Affiliate Organization
In August 2021, our association with USA Working Equitation (USAWE) began as an Affiliate Organization (AO) known as Idaho OregonTrail Working Equitation (IDOT-WE) Our active riders asked about forming an official club. In March 2023, we vote to file a LLC with the Idaho Secretary of State (SOS) to form a legal club. Come to find out, we are the 8th equine club in all of Idaho. The success of legal filing and USAWE name was announced on social media March 16, 2023. We have emerged as Working Equitation Club Idaho TM.
Introducing Working Equitation to Southern Idaho answered the call of newly transplanted Idahoans asking about how to find WE, and brought retired and semi-retired folks out to try something new, Working Equitation the fastest growing sport in America. Our biggest advocate said, "Build it and they will come." And so we did. A few clinics, schooling shows, and practice sessions in 2022 transformed the dream into reality.
Early Spring 2023 Training Sessions have sprung up across the Treasure Valley, Fun Mock Shows and USAWE Licensed Shows are on the calendar, with some riders keeping their eye on the prize to compete in the Western Zone Championships October 4-11, 2023 at the Big Sky Horse Park in MT. Everyone seems to be talking about Working Equitation, and getting in on the action.
