The H/J Show Team is Jumping for Joy

The WWU Jumping Derby is a fall horse show on the outside course at WWU. Both traditional hunter/jumper classes are held along with the famous Hunt Teams class and of course the High and Low Jumping Derbies, which offer the much sought after fabulous prizes to the winners. This year's Derby will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2008.

The Derby is organized and managed by the H/J Show Team and their faculty sponsor, Dr. Linda McClaren. The Show Team puts on a number of fundraising events throughout the academic year. Proceeds from these events contribute to the Show Team members' ability to participate in a nationally recognized horse competitions with WWU show horses.

The Derby has grown a little each year, with many "outside" horses joining the WWU students and horses for a friendly competition. There is often a nice audience composed of not only friends and families of competitors, but also members of the Fulton community who just come out to enjoy an afternoon of show jumping. See below for a link to the prize list. For more information, contact Dr. Linda McClaren .
