Dressage Society is a Group Member Organization of the United States Dressage
Federation.
Members
receive the right to vote, hold office, receive our newsletter "On The Bit",
participate in the PdNDS awards program, and are on the list for show
premiums and clinics. If conditions of shows or clinics require
limitation of riders/participants, PdNDS members are given first
consideration in registration. Members also save
money on the non member fees for shows and clinics
When you join PdNDS, you are not just joining a local
group.
PdNDS members automatically become USDF
