FADS COSTS
FADS is not a business and FADS has no money. The FADS Web Site is simply a free marketing tool for farms that want to hold FADS shows. Farms are only responsible for FADS ribbons costs.
Costs Paid by FADS Webmaster to Run FADS:
Domain Name: $70 per year (2021)
Web Site Hosting: $80 / year (2021)
Email Service: Free if under 2500 participants.
Forms Program: $350 (2025)
--------------------------------------------------
TOTAL ANNUAL COST: $500
FADS Farms are not responsible for these costs. The FADS Webmaster (Leslie Raulin) covers these costs as her contribution to the local dressage community.
Costs Paid by FADS Farms:
FADS Show Ribbons (Optional): This is an optional service and fee. If a FADS Farm wants to use FADS show ribbons, they are ordered through the FADS Webmaster (click here). Recent cost is $2.02 per ribbon (Summer 2020, subject to change), which is the actual cost of the ribbons (FADS does not make a profit). For example, if a show had 50 completed rides, the cost for show ribbons would be $101.
FADS Season-End Awards Ribbons (Required): This is a required fee. At the end of each FADS show season March - November, season-end award ribbons are provided to riders/horses with the highest mean scores in a division/level. FADS Farms reimburse the FADS Webmaster for the actual cost of the ribbons (FADS does not make a profit). The cost for each farm is based on the total number of completed rides at the farm during the show season. Recent cost is $0.31 per completed ride (2018 Spring/Summer, subject to change). For example, a farm with 132 completed rides over three shows paid $40.82 for season-end ribbons.
