The USEA is happy to welcome Flair LLC back to the cast of sponsors for the Nutrena USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Bit of Britain. Flair will be in the same location as last year when the 2012 AEC gets underway on September 6-9 at Chattahoochee Hills in Fairburn, Georgia.
"FLAIR takes great pleasure in once again sponsoring the American Eventing Championships and looks forward to protecting and supporting the amazing Eventing Equine Athletes of the USEA in 2012 -- and in years to come." said Jim Chiapetta, DVM, Flair president.
For this year’s AEC, Flair will supply nasal strips for all competitors prior to cross-country - just stop by the Flair booth to have it applied. These Strips have helped equine athletes for over a decade. FLAIR® Strips provide support and protection to a sport-horse’s respiratory system by reducing air resistance. The drug-free Strips help prevent fatigue related injuries, help protect the lungs from exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH), and promote the best athletic performance.
The top six in every division will also take home Flair strips in their prize packages.
The AEC is a little over a month away, but there is a still a chance to sign on as a sponsor. Just contact Leslie Mintz.
The United States Eventing Association, Inc. (USEA) is pleased to announce the Retired Racehorse Project as a “Bronze Level Sponsor of the 2024 USEA American Eventing Championships (AEC).” In return, the USEA will be supporting the Retired Racehorse Project’s Thoroughbred Makeover, which takes place Oct. 9-12 in Lexington, Kentucky, as a “Starting Gate Sponsor.”
The countdown to the 2024 United States Eventing Association (USEA) American Eventing Championships (AEC) presented by Nutrena Feeds is getting shorter and the tentative schedule is officially set! For the second year in a row, the AEC returns to the iconic Kentucky Horse Park from August 27 through September 1 and will offer 26 divisions, including brand new Starter divisions and all levels of recognized evening up through the $60,000 Adequan USEA Advanced Final.
What’s a Hunter Pace? The Sherwood Forest Equestrian Center's Hunter Pace is a cross-country-style course around Sherwood Forest over various natural obstacles/terrain. The course ends with a final treat for riders to take in stunning views of Mt. Hood with a loop through the old Far Hill Farms field. The beginning of the course will first start with a warm-up loop around show jumping obstacles in the outdoor ring at Sherwood Forest and then riders will continue directly onto the course. Sign up as a solo rider, pair, or team.
Claire Allen remembers when she was 11 years old, having just made the switch from the hunter/jumper ring to three-day eventing. She told her new eventing trainer that her goal was to one day compete in the United States Equestrian Federation’s Eventing Young Rider Championships.
