Starting in 2011, PVDA will be using Equestrian Entries as an option to enter its USEF licensed / USDF recognized shows. Equestrian Entries is an easy-to-use online service whereby you enter your information/memberships and horse information/registrations - the service helps you get it all correct! If you want to mail your entry, after entering your information, select the show, enter the classes, and print. This is all free of charge! If you want to enter and pay online, you also need to upload (or mail) your Coggins report and signature page. After doing this, you are in their system so you no longer need to provide the information and documents for each show. Payment is by credit card via PayPal. The fee for this service is 3% of your total fees and $5.00. The service provides your entry and payment to PVDA. Click here to try it out.
