I should probably stop and breathe at some point. Honestly, it is shaping up to be one of those very busy weekends for me. Yesterday started with braiding for a friend at 6am and then straight off to a full day of hanging out at an Everything But The Horse Pony Club Rally. Today is another early morning of braiding and then off to spend some time with my own horse. I should probably find some time to mow the lawn, do my taxes and other responsible adult things as well. Hopefully your weekend has been packed full of fun as well! If you are in Wellington today, you should totally check out the the USET Foundation/USEF Fundraiser American Equestrians Got Talent. It starts at 6pm.

The AEGT Grand Finale will positively impact each and every one of the FEI disciplines through our first time, across all sports, fundraising effort! 10% of all funds raised over the last 10 weeks from the audition nights at the Grille, as well as from our Grand Finaleon Sunday, will be split equally between all 8 FEI disciplines.  It is not just a Dressage fundraiser! Also, if the winner of the night comes from a sport other than Dressage, another 10% will go directly to that sport’s High Performance Programs. Tables, Tickets, and General Admission Passes may be purchased directly online at http://www.uset.org/American-Equestrians-got-Talent.php

If you are not in Wellington, don’t despair – the entire show will be live-streamed around the world  at www.coth.com and you can vote once or an unlimited number of times for your favorite act on your smart phone by texting 41444 and putting in the name of the act you want to win. Each vote costs $5.00 and this money goes as well to our cause, the USET Foundation!
