Becky Kuc earns USEF Varsity Letter for dressage

     Hidden Creek's Becky Kuc has earned a high school varsity letter through the United States Equestrian Federation based on her advanced performance in dressage over her past three years in high school. She is now recognized as a USEF High School Equestrian Athlete.
     Becky recently received her certificates from USEF for not only her current year in high school, but her freshman and sophomore years as well. A dressage rider (among riders of other disciplines) can be recognized by USEF for all four years of high school if they meet the appropriate requirements; the rider must be a USEF member enrolled in high school, and must log a minimum of 100 hours of practice a year and proof of competition at a minimum of five USDF and/or ESDCTA recognized shows a year. In her freshman, sophomore, and junior years, Becky far exceeded these requirements.
     Becky will be recieving a patch, jacket, and a pin for each year as a varsity high school athlete. For each year a rider qualifies, he or she receives a pin with 1, 2, 3 or 4 stars. Currently, Becky has earned 1, 2 and 3 stars, and plans to earn her fourth and final star her senior year of high school. This is a huge accomplishment and we strongly advise all of our most dedicated high school-aged riders to look into the program as well.
Congratulations Becky!!!!!
