USEF Eventing High Performance is back in Aiken this week for another round of training sessions with David O’Connor. The sessions will once again be held at beautiful Stable View Farm. David will have a microphone this time around, so everyone (riders included!) will be able to hear him much better. Auditors are welcome. Click here for detailed driving directions (simply plugging the address into your GPS will take you on a wild goose chase). Here’s a look at the schedule for Tuesday’s training sessions. It looks to be a very busy day!

Additionally, the USEF is hoping to see a strong turnout at the High Performance Owners’ Day at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Palmetto Country Club. Join leading event riders for a round of golf and learn more about how to become involved in the sport on an ownership level. Drinks and food will be served following the golf outing at Fox Frolic Farm, where David will host a Q&A about ownership. Events like this are critical to securing new owners and supporters for the sport. If you’re interested in attending, see below for contact and RSVP information.
