Eventing USA Has Been Redesigned for 2013
You might notice something different about the USEA’s official publication, Eventing USA, when you receive the first 2013 issue at the end of January. The magazine has been completely redesigned, and we hope you will enjoy the eye-catching new look.
In 2011, the number of published issues was increased from six per year to ten. You will continue to receive ten issues in 2013, bringing you tons of training and education articles, horse/human interest stories, event recaps, and more. Also look forward to monthly video updates from the editorial staff on U.S. Eventing TV.
Issue 1 is all about the 2012 USEA Annual Meeting and Convention, featuring several pages of colorful photos of the beautiful Broadmoor hotel and the Hall of Fame and awards ceremonies. We also recap the latest buzz about the future of U.S. eventing and important rule changes. We will say farewell to our 2012 diarist, welcome an exciting new contributor, and start the year off with training and health tips for you and your horse.
You no longer need to opt in to receiving the magazine when you renew your USEA membership – you’ll receive it automatically. So, don’t forget to update your USEA membership for 2013 if you haven’t already. A Full membership costs $85 annually, but you can become a Supporting Member for $35 and receive a subscription to the magazine as well as the electronic newsletters.

Saddle Fit Simplified
Eventers who are new to the sport may feel a little overwhelmed by the often-misunderstood world of saddle fitting. Riders are often bombarded with information from peers online or self-described experts, putting them at risk of following bad advice related to equipment that impacts horse welfare perhaps more than any other piece of tack. Finding a qualified expert to answer these questions is crucial. Who better to turn to than both a qualified Master Saddle Fitter and a fourth-generation saddle designer to answer some of these questions?
