  • About | Utah Dressage Society

    About Us The Utah Dressage Society (UDS), an affiliate of the United States Dressage Federation (USDF), exists to educate, promote, encourage, and inspire its members and the general public through programs, publications, and competitions, in a way that enhances the image of dressage and promotes the welfare of the horse. Dressage is the gradual, harmonious advancement of the horse, both physically and mentally, to develop its natural abilities and to make riding a graceful and pleasurable experience. The programs of the society shall be educational and competitive and provide a framework in which individuals can progress with the schooling of their horses and themselves. Our mission is to educate, inspire, and encourage dressage riders around the state of Utah, and to promote the sport of dressage in our community. History of the Utah Dressage Society Established in 1969 by dressage enthusiasts, including Johanna and Eva Adolphi, the Utah Dressage Society (UDS) has flourished into a vibrant community. The first meeting drew eight individuals, sparking the inception of our passionate journey. The inaugural Utah Dressage Society Annual Show on August 19, 1972, featured 25 horses and 33 riders. By 1975, it gained recognition with Elizabeth Friedlander Searle as the judge. Today, the UDS Annual Show in August boasts 200 rides over two days with two "S" judges. With nearly 200 members, UDS continues to grow as dressage spreads through the "wild west." Our roots trace back to an early schooling show in 1969 or 1970, where a simple sheet of paper led to the formation of a dedicated dressage club. Since then, UDS has become a hallmark of excellence in equestrian circles. Meet the Board of Directors John Maznicki PRESIDENT John has been involved with Utah Dressage for 10+ years competing, breeding, coaching and volunteering. He has come to know many of our local members through the UDS, and looks forward to getting to know more of you by adding being on the board as part of his service to the local community. president@utahdressagesociety.com Dana Prior TREASURER I grew up in southern california and started riding at age 10. I took a break from riding when I went to college in Washington to study Spanish and accounting. After passing my cpa exams i decided to get back into riding, which is not only where i was introduced to dressage, but also my lesson horse Harley - who I eventually bought. Because of my analytical brain, I immediately started loving dressage and we have been a team ever since! We have participated in many short tour shows over the years and just started showing in recognized shows this past season. I volunteer wherever I’m needed from scribing to gate calling or test reading. I look forward to continuing to volunteer by serving the Utah dressage society! treasurer@utahdressagesociety.com Debbie Baxter DIRECTOR OF COMPETITIONS Coming Soon! competitions@utahdressagesociety.com Eva Adolphi FOUNDER/SPECIAL ADVISOR My mother was the horse crazy one and dragged me off to ride at the Lazy Bar Ranch when I was 8. At 12 I was given a horse and by 19, when we got our own property, the emphasis changed to Dressage I was a founding member of the Utah Dressage Society and served on the board for 33 years! I am now the adviser to the board. I have been a show secretary, show manager, and competitor. I am a USEF licensed Technical Delegate and enjoy traveling to shows in other states. I also enjoy working with my students. I attend the USDF Convention every year now that I am retired, usually as a delegate. Sydni Cook VICE PRESIDENT Coming Soon! vicepresident@utahdressagesociety.com Kim Judd DIRECTOR OF MEMBERSHIP From the time Kim could say "horse", she has loved horses! When she was a teenager growing up in Sandy, she went down the street to a family's stables, and asked to work in exchange for riding lessons. Unfortunately they usually forgot to give her lessons, but she got very good at mucking out stalls! Kim graduated from BYU with a degree in Ballroom Dance (which was also how she met her husband: they were competition partners). After living out east for 14 years, Kim and her family moved back to Utah, and she finally realized her dream of starting to learn to ride! Dressage feels like a natural switch from ballroom dance: the partnership, the technique, the constant striving to be better, then even better! After riding for 6 years, Kim's husband asked "when are you going to do a dressage show?" Becoming part of the Utah Dressage Society and entering shows has been such an amazing experience, and Kim is excited to use her extensive secretarial skills (developed over 22 years and 5 kids!) to help support the board of the Utah Dressage Society! membership@utahdressagesociety.com Sian Griffiths DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS Siân Griffiths lives and rides in Ogden, Utah. A former jumper turned dressage rider, she competes as an adult amateur, working her way up the levels with her beloved Holsteiner, Larry. After working for the U.S. Equestrian Team in 1999-2000, fund raising for the Sydney Olympic Games, Siân decided to pursue her passion for fiction writing and earned her PhD at the University of Georgia. She now serves as a professor of English and Creative Writing at Weber State University and is the author of the novels Borrowed Horses (New Rivers Press), Scrapple (Braddock Avenue Books), the short fiction chapbook The Heart Keeps Faulty Time (Bull City Press), and, most recently, the essay collection The Sum of Her Parts (University of Georgia Press). She is thrilled to join the Utah Dressage Society team and encourages members to reach out to her at communications@utahdressagesociety.com with any news they would like to share Carrie Matteson SECRETARY Coming Soon! secretary@utahdressagesociety.com Katie Lorens DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION Katie grew up in Chicago and moved to Salt Lake in 2011. She is an athletic trainer who worked with Utah Gymnastics for 10 years before starting work with a local hand surgeon. She also runs her own business doing injury evaluations, Rehabilitation/injury prevention, strength and conditioning and bio mechanical analysis. After her 30th birthday, she decided to get back into riding after a long break. Last year, she bought her first horse, Midnight Sun “Odin”, and is excited to start showing him. She has been passionate about dressage since she began riding as a kid and is eager to get more involved and serve the Utah Dressage Community. education@utahdressagesociety.com Mindy Simmons DIRECTOR OF EVENTS Mindy has been the crazy horse girl her entire life! She started riding at 8, (that is the age riding school near my house would accept new riders or would have started earlier). She bought her first rescue horse at 14 and it has been an amazing journey ever since. She fell in love with dressage about 5 years ago and has had some amazing mentors. She is currently working up the levels with her mustang. She is hopeful she can give back to the dressage community as it has changed her life! events@utahdressagesociety.com Rules & Bylaw POLICY PROCEDURES AND RULES Revised 4/15/2022 w/ addendum BYLAWS UDS CODE OF CONDUCT Member approved 11/3/2016 Contact Us John Maznicki PRESIDENT president@utahdressagesociety.com Dana Prior TREASURER treasurer@utahdressagesociety.com Debbie Baxter DIRECTOR OF COMPETITIONS competitions@utahdressagesociety.com Sydni Cook VICE PRESIDENT vicepresident@utahdressagesociety.com Kim Judd DIRECTOR OF MEMBERSHIP membership@utahdressagesociety.com Sian Griffiths DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS communications@utahdressagesociety.com Carrie Matteson SECRETARY secretary@utahdressagesociety.com Katie Lorens DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION education@utahdressagesociety.com Mindy Simmons DIRECTOR OF EVENTS events@utahdressagesociety.com

  • VOLUNTEER | Utah Dressage

    Volunteer To be eligible for UDS year end awards or scholarships, volunteering at UDS recognized events or for other projects for the board of directors is required. Please check the UDS Rules to understand the volunteering requirements for a particular award or scholarship. Thank you for your support! WHAT COUNTS? SUBMISSION FORM '25 Approved Hours What Counts? To be eligible for year-end awards, UDS members need to complete and submit four (4) volunteer hours. It is the rider's responsibility to submit and confirm hours have been approved to qualify for year end awards. We have recently expanded volunteer opportunities that encourage our mission “to educate, inspire, and encourage dressage riders around the state of Utah, and to promote the sport of dressage in our community.” If you have done volunteer work that is not included on our list but that is unpaid and promotes the UDS mission, please reach out to a UDS board member, describing the work you’ve completed, and we will be happy to consider it and let you know. Help out at a dressage show. Our local dressage shows need volunteers. You might scribe, serve as a ring steward, or do any number of other tasks, depending on the show’s needs. Contact the show secretary directly to learn more about how you can help. [Note that we have recently expanded this to include schooling shows and other non-UDS shows.] Assist at the UDS banquet. We can always use extra hands, both setting up or serving at the banquet itself and in the weeks leading up to the event, as we gather everything together to make it a special night. We also need help with obtaining and organizing donations for the silent auction fundraiser. Contact the Events Director to find out where you can help. Acquire items for silent auction. You can earn 1 hour for each approved item to be offered at our annual silent auction. Contact the UDS Events Director for more information and for item approval. Work at a UDS clinic. Whether helping with the build up or at the clinic itself, we often need extra hands. Our Education Director is the best person to email to find out how you can help. Write an article for the UDS omnibus, newsletter, or website. Perhaps you’ve been to an event? Perhaps you’ve had a training insight? Contact the Communications Director and pitch your idea. Volunteer in the dressage phase of eventing competitions. Whether you serve as a scribe, ring steward, test runner, or in another capacity, your help with the dressage phrase of an event helps to promote the sport. Contact the show secretary for the event to learn how you might help. Do outreach to Pony Club, 4-H, and other equine organizations. Perhaps you would like to do a dressage exposition for the local 4-H or offer dressage lessons for the Pony Club. Provided that you are not being paid for this time, any activity that supports the promotion of dressage and dressage education to other equestrian organizations will be considered for volunteer hours. If you have questions about whether the activity you have in mind will count, please reach out to a UDS board member. Lend your expertise. We can always use help. If you are skilled at making fliers, doing website design, taking photos for our site and social media pages, arranging flower for the banquet, or doing any other of the tasks that pop up around events, we would love your assistance. Please reach out to a UDS board member or our Volunteer Coordinator and we will see how we might put you to work. Buy volunteer hours. Did time get the better of you? Have you been unable to find an opportunity to offer your skills? You now have the option to buy volunteer hours for $50 per hour. Contact the UDS treasurer for more information on how to donate to earn hours. Note that purchased volunteer hours will not be applied towards volunteer-of-the-year awards. Horse owners may earn hours to donate to their horse’s rider. A rider’s family members may earn hours to donate to that UDS member. *Please note that any work that a member has been paid for is not considered to be volunteer work and, thus, should not be submitted for volunteer hours. * Because all UDS members can advertise their events on the UDS website, not all clinics listed on the website are official UDS events and thus may not be venues at which you can earn volunteer hours. If you need clarification on what counts for your hours, please contact a board member. You may submit documentation of your volunteer hours using the form below or in another manner, if more convenient, as long as the same information is provided.
