ODS COMMITTEES AND CHAPTERS ONLY -- Insure your Show, Clinic or Event:
There is sometimes confusion about the concept of ODS sponsored events. ODS Chapters, Committees and the State Organization can sponsor activities. Shows approved by ODS but sponsored by organizations other than ODS or an ODS chapter can NOT be covered by this insurance.
Follow these links for important information about ODS Insurance; how to apply, details and rules.
Important Notes:
- Members only clinics must be restricted to MEMBERS only, including the clinician and all auditors/people attending (videographer, etc); if anyone is not a member, then the clinic is subject to the public day fee (currently $43) PLUS the clinician must provide ODS with proof of their insurance.
- Open clinics clinics not restricted to members only pay to the public day fee (currently $43). Additionally, the clinician must provide clinic organizer with proof of their insurance.
- Facility additional insured: there is an annual cost of $25.00 per non-member facility. Please use the legal property owner's name on the insurance form vs. just a farm name.
- Vendors participating in ODS Chapter, Committee, Team or ODS GMO Sponsored Shows: ODS requires that all independent contractors (including concessionaires on the show grounds) furnish the show/clinic/event management with a Certificate of Insurance as evidence that Public Liability Insurance (minimum $1mil), Auto and Worker’s Compensation Insurance is in force during the show. In most cases, show management will want to be named as Additional Insured on their policy (i.e. naming Oregon Dressage Society, Inc., its Directors, Officers and Agents as additional insured).
- Shows approved by ODS but sponsored by organizations other than ODS or an ODS Chapter must provide ODS with proof of their insurance, naming Oregon Dressage Society, Inc, its Directors, Officers and Agents as Additional Insured.
 The ODS Liability Policy includes a Products Coverage (listed on p.5) because it is anticipated that there may be some incidental sales of food by clubs, i.e. hotdogs, bake sales, etc. We ask that management check with local authorities in regards to food handling regulations and permit requirements.
List of vendors with insurance on file at the ODS Office:
Updated 2/23/2010 - if you are using a vendor that is not on this list then your show / clinic management is responsible for collecting a photocopy of the vendor's liability insurance per the rules posted above.
