Scattered among the eventers and horses at the MARS Maryland 5 Star horse inspection in October were volunteers dressed smartly in matching red shirts. While all eyes were on the athletes, they worked behind the scenes, ensuring the event ran smoothly. The event was particularly special for volunteer Rebecca Proetto, who kept records and guided the athletes at the end of the jog strip.
Horse trials are so much more than a competition; they are community events where riders, trainers, organizers, spectators, and volunteers come together to celebrate the sport we all love. Competitors invest countless hours training, preparing, and strategizing, and each event provides invaluable experiences.
