Equestriennes
The Culver Girls Academy Equestriennes were organized in 1980 and in 1981 the Equestriennes became an honor organization within the Culver Girls Academy. To qualify for membership, girls must maintain good academic standing, satisfactory citizenship and demonstrate proficiency in equitation. To be a member of the Equestrienne team the rider must have intermediate/advanced riding skills.
The Equestriennes are a mounted drill team unit which performs a choreographed, musical drill ride on horseback accompanied by a live band. The Equestriennes perform at the Academies 5-7 times a year and then travel to various regional parades. The Equestriennes have performed at the Academies and in drill team competitions. In addition, they have appeared in regional and local parades, including six Presidential Inaugural Parades, including 2009.
