The Carol Lavell Gifted Fund

Seeded with Donations received in special remembrance of Carol's great Dressage horse, Gifted.   Many other friends of The Dressage Foundation have added Donations and the Scholarship Fund has grown steadily over the years.  This Scholarship enables Adult Amateurs to set aside quality-time, in concentrated training away from the daily pressures of job and family, with a horse the recipient owns.

Each year The Dressage Foundation receives a larger number of applications for this Scholarship.  In order to give this opportunity to as many new Adult Amateurs as possible, we will now award the scholarship only once to a recipient beginning with the 2009 application, for training in 2010. 

Up to nine scholarships of $900 in USDF regions will be offered in 2010 for training in 2011.  Should a scholarship not be awarded in a given Region, the money will remain in the Gifted Fund at the Foundation.

Congratulations to the 2009 Recipients, who will train in 2010:
