Bringing horses into the state of California
The state of California requires that anyone bringing horses into the state must have a current Coggins Test and a health certificate for each horse. Health certificates are good for 30 days and must be valid through the time of travel. While not required by law, it is strongly recommended that all immunizations are current. Horses should be vaccinated no later than two weeks before transport, which allows time for the horse to recuperate and for the vaccinations to take affect.
Rider Requirements
Anyone participating in any Equestrian activity must have a current equestrian authorization card from their kingdom. This includes all martial activities and trail rides. New rider authorizations will not be done at site, although additional or special authorizations may be done if time permits.
Equestrian Activities
Organized Equestrian events are scheduled for Thursday through Sunday. Also, there will be an overall GWW EQ Champion. Please contact the EQ Autocrat if you would like to sponsor an activity.
