Television Program to Present Highlights from Successful December 2009 Event Featuring Leading Equestrians
The 2009 SUCCEED® Holiday Fundraiser to benefit the United States Equestrian Team Foundation (USET) has come and gone. But the fun can be relived again on HRTV. Highlights of the event will premier on the network Monday, March 15 at 10:30 P.M. ET/7:30 P.M. PT, and re-air Tuesday and the following Sunday, March 21.
The USET Holiday Gala Fundraiser was originally held live at the Jim Brandon Equestrian Center in Wellington, FL, last December 11-12. The event raised $20,853 for the USET Foundation. The two-night program of live performances featured more than 20 celebrities from across the equestrian world. Some of the equestrians involved in the program include dressage Olympian Steffen Peters, Karen and David O’Connor, Chester Weber, Lynn Palm, Monty Roberts, Gina Miles, Courtney King-Dye, and many more.
“We are proud of our contribution to the teams and to the industry at large,” said John Hall, President of Freedom Health, makers of SUCCEED® and co-host and co-sponsor of the event. “In addition to raising funds for the US Teams, this event was simply a great time for all involved, and is sure to be great television entertainment for horse enthusiasts everywhere.”
The USET Fundraiser is co-sponsored by SUCCEED® and Wellington Classic Dressage. For more information on the 2009 Gala, including photographs from the event, visit www.succeedevent.com.

Familiarizing yourself with the key players at each horse trial is an important step to your success at your next competition. One of those important figures is the show secretary. Think of the show secretary as the mastermind behind most of the organizational efforts related to each horse trial. They manage entries, the show schedule, ride times, stabling, and so much more. Without the hard work of the show secretary and their office staff, a horse trial simply would not be able to operate.
The USEA Foundation is pleased to announce a new initiative, the Janet Briggs Fund for the Continuing Education of Licensed Officials. Established in memory of Janet Briggs, this fund honors her lifelong dedication to the sport of eventing by supporting the ongoing education and development of eventing licensed officials.
