Spring Fling! HDT & Combined Test
Welcome to the Florida Spring Fling HDT and Combined Test!

 

April 21-22, 2012

at the Little Everglades Ranch in Dade City, FL

 

An HDT is a carriage driving event with three phases of competition that include dressage, cones, and a marathon with hazards/obstacles. The event is a shortened form of a CDE (combined driving event) and great for any age, any level, and any equine.  For those not wishing to compete in the marathon, a Combined Test is offered (dressage and cones only). This competition is recognized by the American Driving Society (ADS).   You can access the official ADS Omnibus Listing for this show.  The event is sponsored and organized by Cypress Keep, and we appreciate your support!

 

We would love to host you as a competitor, sponsor, volunteer, or vendor!

 

Please explore the rest of this site to find out more about this competition.  We look forward to your visit!

The Little Everglades Ranch is 2000 acres of beautiful protected land, abundant with Florida wildlife and native plants, many of which are endangered species. LER is also a working ranch, so please respect cattle, crops, closed gates, restricted areas, and ranch operations.  Find out more at http://www.littleevergladesranch.com/.
