-For the next 5 minutes, lets pretend we want to.
After getting home from Jersey, one vet emailed me and suggested that we ask Eventing Nation about how to improve public interest in eventing. I would guess that there were no more than 200 non-competing spectators at Jersey, and this is a big number for all but a few events across the US. Think of how much it would help ease the budget of the events if we could get one or two thousand locals out, charge them $5 for parking and 3$ for a hamburger. So, I pose the question:
What is the best way to improve public interest in eventing?
Some will surely say that we don’t want to improve public interest or that it’s impossible, and both of those arguments have merit. But, even if you do make such a point, please feel free to add “but if I had to propose a solution, I would suggest…”
Go eventing.
