The USEA is pleased to announce Rebecca Farm is returning as a Gold Level Sponsor for the USEA 2024 Annual Meeting & Convention. The Annual Meeting & Convention takes place at The Westin Seattle Hotel, in Seattle, Washington, on Dec. 12-15. Rebecca Farm will be sponsoring the continental breakfast and coffee each morning. It will be offered on Thurs.-Sun. from 7:30 a.m.–9:00 a.m. for all Convention attendees.
Located in Kalispell, Montana, the Broussard family owns the stunning venue home to The Event at Rebecca Farm. Hosted annually in July, they offer divisions at the Novice, Training, Preliminary, and Intermediate level as well as a Novice and Training Classic Three-Day Event. In conjunction with the national levels, they also host CCI2*-L, CCI3*-S, CCI3*-L, CCI4*-S, and CCI4*- L. The Event runs around 600 horses over just four days of competition. It is a feat of dedication to put on a competition of this size every year, but the Broussard family’s generosity has made it possible. The Event at Rebecca is a place where professionals, amateurs, young riders, and grassroots competitors can all compete at the same venue, alongside each other and enjoy the whole spectrum of the sport.
“Thank you to the Broussard family for their continued support and generosity,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk. “Their dedication to eventing and their exceptional venue has made a significant impact on the local community and the sport as a whole. We look forward to another fantastic year working with Rebecca Farm and encourage everyone to experience its beauty and excellence firsthand in 2025.”

With 2025 just days away, we thought it would be fun to take a look back at some of the top moments for the USEA across the 2024 season. Take a trip down memory lane with us and relive these high-performing moments from our online news, the USEA Podcast, and our Instagram account!
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?
Did you know that the USEA Foundation awards over 150 grants each year to deserving individuals who are involved in the sport of eventing? With grants that assist riders with accomplishing their competition goals, grants geared toward licensed officials, grants that are specific to continuing education for coaches, grants that assist competitions with obtaining frangible technology, and so much more, there really is a grant opportunity available to almost anyone!
With the start of the New Year just days away, now is the time to consider how your actions can have a positive impact on the sport of eventing in 2025. Each and every member of the eventing community has an important role to play in ensuring the sport continues to grow and thrive. From fostering educational opportunities to supporting grassroots initiatives and participating at all levels of the sport, there are so many ways to get involved.
