January 25, 2008 Dressage Canada 2008 Competition System Updates Dressage Canada Affiliate Fees The Dressage Canada (DC) Affiliate Fee, previously called DC Membership Fee, is optional for all competitors at the Bronze (Primary) and Silver (Provincial) levels, but is required for competitors at the Gold (National) and Platinum (Federation Equestre International) level for 2008. The Fees remain unchanged from 2007 and are as follows: Senior, $25; Junior, $15; and Associate, $15. Competitors at the Gold and Platinum level must be either Junior or Senior affiliate members of Dressage Canada. Senior affiliate membership with Dressage Canada allows that individual to have voting privileges in Dressage Canada elections DC Levy Dressage Canada will launch a Levy Program in 2008. The DC Levy is a new fee for competitors in 2008, and it will be charged to the competitor on their entry forms at the Bronze (Primary), Silver (Provincial), Gold (National) and Platinum (Federation Equestre International) level competitions. The levy is $7 per entry and will be collected by competition organizers. Dressage Canada will use the funds collected from this Levy program for domestic development with emphasis on provincial and regional educational and/or development programs. Full details on the program will be available on the Dressage website once they have been finalized. The Levy fees collected by show organizers will be remitted to Equine Canada within 10 calendar days following the conclusion of the competition. Competition organizers can expect to receive their levy submission form/invoice with their competition package from their Provincial Sport Organization (PSO). Rules Until further notice, all Equine Canada sanctioned dressage competitions will use the 2007 Section E Dressage rules with one exception being for the 2008 Sport License requirements. Competitors showing at the Bronze (Primary) level will require a Bronze Sport License. To compete at a Silver (Provincial) competition, a Silver Sport License is required. To compete at a Gold (National) level competition, a Gold Sport License is required. Only members competing in FEI classes at Platinum (FEI sanctioned) competitions will require a Platinum Sport License.
