Are you in Area 2? Are you attending the Annual Meeting? Here’s what’s in store for you!
From Julie:
When: Sunday, January 13, 2013
Where: Carradoc Hall, Holiday Inn, Leesburg, VA
Here’s an update on what is coming for the USEA Area 2 Annual Meeting! We will be having Meg Kepferle, Sinead Halpin’s head groom and the new Young Rider co-Coordinator come and speak with us about taking care of horses at the four star level, going to London and the disappointment of not making the team only to finish with great success at Burghley. Dressage judge Susan Graham White will discuss what dressage judges are really looking for and a separate session on the reinvigorated Young and Future Event Horse programs (FEH and YEH). At the Annual Awards Luncheon, where we celebrate the success of members in Area 2, there will be a talk about the buzz that dominated the USEA Annual meeting – how David O’Connor is changing eventing in the United States and its effect on the youngest riders to our high performance riders. As always, there will also be the Adult Rider and Young Rider Forums as well as the Rules forum and a short Area 2 Business Meeting. There is also an organizers meeting which is open to all members of the area where we develop a fist draft of the 2014 schedule and issues of importance for organizers. We are still waiting conformation from one other speaker.
Don’t forget, Division Winners get to attend the Awards Luncheon for free! Registration for the Awards Luncheon for everyone else is $40. The cost of the information-packed meetings is $25 for a total cost of $65. This is half of what the registration fee was last year. If you are not sure that you will be able to attend until the last minute, on-site registration is always available, although with a nominal late fee.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Julie Augustine at [email protected].
