Come show with DEC

We are a community and family oriented show barn. Durham Equestrian Club travels with advanced students to locations in surrounding states including shows recognized by the NCHJA. We attend larger A shows multiple times a year as well as local NCHJA C shows monthly. We cater to working parents and arrange everything to help students achieve their goals in a low-pressure, supportive environment.

Why Show with us?

Horse showing is a good sport for kids because it teaches goal setting and healthy competition
Having goals to work towards in their lessons gives incentive to improve and rewards hard work
Shows provide camaraderie having all your clients there supporting each other
Shows are a fun, confidence-building experience.
Showing allows a horse to be exposed to life outside the barn, which prepares him for new environments and accustoms him to different sights and sounds
