Based in Ormstown\, Québec\, François brings decades of experience to the sport\, with a judging résumé that spans multiple national and international federations. He is a Senior Combined Driving Judge and Recorded (“r”) Pleasure Driving Judge with the American Driving Society (ADS)\, a Registered (“R”) Combined Driving Judge with the United States Equestrian Federation (USEF)\, and both a Senior Combined Driving Judge and Pleasure Driving Judge with Equestrian Canada. He also holds international credentials as an FEI Level 2 Combined Driving Judge\, which have taken him across North America to officiate at prestigious events. Throughout his judging career\, François has been invited to officiate at a wide range of combined and pleasure driving competitions\, including major shows in the United States and Canada. His assignments have included national championship events\, FEI-sanctioned competitions\, and a variety of pleasure shows where his thoughtful and fair evaluations are well regarded by competitors. Known for his calm demeanor\, eye for detail\, and deep understanding of the rules and traditions of the sport\, François is respected by competitors at all levels—from newcomers to seasoned professionals. \nAs a competitor\, François has driven both single horses and tandems in pleasure and combined driving\, earning championship titles in Canada and the U.S. alike. One of his proudest achievements came in 2019\, when he was named the North American Preliminary Champion by the ADS—a testament to his skill\, dedication\, and sportsmanship. \nFrançois’s commitment to the sport extends beyond the arena. In 1998\, he became a certified Driving Coach with Equestrian Canada\, and he remains deeply involved in mentoring and educating new drivers. Whether judging\, coaching\, or competing\, François is passionate about sharing his knowledge and encouraging others to discover the joy of carriage driving. His warm and approachable manner has made him a valued presence in barns\, on the sidelines\, and at judge’s tables across the continent. \nWhen not officiating or coaching\, François enjoys staying connected with the driving community and supporting efforts to promote horsemanship and classical driving techniques. His lifelong dedication to the sport reflects a genuine love for horses and for the people who share his passion. \n\n\nEach lesson will be about an hour\, rain or shine.  Sign up early if you want a specific time as we expect the clinics to fill up. $100/hour lesson. \nPlease contact Reva for scheduling.revabseybolt@att.net \nLocation:  MidState Riding & Driving Arena\, Equine Lane\, Randolph\, VT\nMembership in MidState Riding & Driving Club is required (for insurance purposes).  Dues is $25 annually.  Registration forms can be found at https://www.midstateridingclubvt.org/[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” row_position_desktop=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”3570″ image_size=”full” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
