The mission of the Charles River Dressage Association is to provide affordable quality dressage schooling shows, clinics, edu ... cational lectures and sponsorships to its members and local community. In addition, CRDA strives to offer a friendly casual forum in which riders can compete and gain knowledge about the art/sport of dressage. We hold four schooling shows each year as well as an annual adult dressage camp, riding clinics, and other dressage-related events. We are a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization run by volunteers. The Charles River Dressage Association takes its name from the Charles River, which flows through the Norfolk and Middlesex counties in the greater Boston area of Massachusetts. read more
