Leesburg, Va. – The United States Eventing Assocation (USEA) is pleased to announce that Mountain Horse has returned as a sponsor this year, keeping their title as the Official Outerwear of the USEA.

“We are proud to sponsor the USEA once again in 2014,” said Michael Diamond, V.P. of Sales and Marketing at ERS. “Throughout the last 13 years, we’ve found the Association and their members to be hard-working, talented individuals, with high demands and expectations for their chosen products. As equestrians ourselves, our gear and clothing is a natural fit. We are proud to be the Official Outerwear of the USEA, as well as a USEA Annual Meeting and Convention Sponsor, through 2014.”

The USEA will be featuring a variety of Mountain Horse jackets and fleeces proudly displaying the USEA logo in the USEA trade fair booths at both the Rolex Kentucky CCI**** in April and the USEA American Eventing Championships in September. The logowear is also available year round on ShopUSEA.com.

“It is a pleasure to welcome back one of our most loyal sponsors, Mountain Horse,” said USEA CEO Jo Whitehouse. “I personally enjoy wearing my Mountain Horse Jacket, which has served me admirably through some cold and rainy weather over the past few years, but most important are the benefits that Mountain Horse brings to our members year after year. We look forward to a successful year ahead.”
