2026 Program applications

Applications for 2026 are live and are linked below. The deadline (postmarked by) to apply is March 15, 2026. Clinic dates and locations have been confirmed and are detailed below.

Riders from the previous year are given first priority and remaining applications are considered for open spots.

Applicants who do not get into the program the first year they apply will be added to a sub list, and will potentially be given the opportunity to ride in a clinic when a member of the program cannot participate.
