This iteration of the Games will be held in Guatemala from October 18-30. You can learn more about the Central American Games here, and stay tuned as we’ll be catching up with Leonor here on EN soon.

News & Reading
It’s AEC season, and the USEA is rounding up some inspiring stories about competitors heading to Galway Downs in just under a month’s time. If you’ve competed on the West coast, chances are you’ve seen the incredibly cute pony named All That Glitters, and while she is eye-catching in her own right, the story behind her and Jenny McCann is one you won’t want to miss. Read it here (and don’t forget to let the USEA know if you have a cool “road to the AEC” story to share!) here.
Clayton Fredericks has gone from Olympic competitor to well-known course designer, and he’s gearing up for a big fall season with the USEA American Eventing Championships and the Eventing Championships at Galway Downs approaching on the West coast. “One of my strengths is my experience from all over the world,” he says. “I try to reflect that in my course design so that people and horses can experience a look they might see if they compete abroad or if West Coasters compete back East. They won’t be taken by surprise.” You can read more about Clayton’s background and philosophy in this profile.
