While we were off focusing on Luhmühlen this weekend, a future star venue was stretching its legs: TerraNova Equestrian Center in Myakka City, Fl. welcomed its first competitors this weekend for a schooling trial and eventing derby! This is an exciting new venue that’s ramping up to its first USEA-recognized event in October, and it looks like the organizing team pulled out all the stops for this test run. We can’t wait to see more from TerraNova! You can read more about this new facility here.

Monday News and Notes:
Yesterday, Germany announced another formidable Olympic squad. In a surprise to exactly no one, Michael Jung will appear once again to defend his double Olympic gold medals – but this time with a new partner in fischerChipmunk FRH (or, just Chipmunk as he’ll be known at the Games due to sponsor/naming limitations).
“My whole journey has been a series of interconnected circles.” This is how Gina Miles starts off her interview for an article with the USEA on her fondest Olympic memories. Gina earned an individual bronze medal with her legendary partner, the late McKinlaigh, in Hong Kong in 2008.
Did you know that Olympic athletes can’t wear nail polish? This and other weird rules Olympians must abide by (40 of them, to be exact) in this article.
