This year’s USEA Annual Meeting & Convention was a special week as the United States Eventing Association (USEA), formerly known as the United States Combined Training Association (USCTA), celebrated its 60^th anniversary. It was several days of celebration and education and none of it would have been possible without the support of the many loyal partners of the USEA. Thanks to their generous support, the Convention was a ‘wicked’ good time in the great city of Boston, Massachusetts.

Newly minted USEA President Max Corcoran opened the final Board of Governors meeting of the 2019 USEA Annual Meeting & Convention in Boston, Massachusetts by sharing her enthusiasm for her new position.
