We rely on the hours of volunteer work to support MODA activities including shows and clinics, as well as our sponsorship, awards, and communication activities.
Our primary need is support at our MODA shows and events.
So far, for 2023, these are:
  • June 11 Strawberry Moon Schooling Show at Masterfare
  • July 14, 15, and 16 - Mid-Ohio Classic at Brave Horse Equestrian Center
  • September 23 and 24 - East Meets West WDAA Recognized and Classical Schooling Show at Four Star Quarter Horses​
To volunteer for one of these shows, email midohiodressage@gmail.com and your information will be forwarded to the show volunteer coordinator.
​
Roles for volunteers at shows are described in more detail here.
