The United States Eventing Association, Inc. (USEA) is thrilled to announce that Sidelines Magazine will not only be returning as a “Media Partner of U.S. Eventing,” but they will also be supporting the Association as a “Contributing Level Sponsor of the USEA Emerging Athletes U21 Program” and a “Prize Level Sponsor of the USEA American Eventing Championships.” Sidelines Magazine will give the USEA additional promotion and exposure through their printed and digital media products, while also providing prizes for participants at the AEC and EA21 clinics.
"Sidelines is dedicated to the people who make the horse world exciting—and that certainly includes eventers," said Jan Westmark, editor of Sidelines Magazine. "We have loved sharing fascinating and inspiring stories of eventers from all across the country, as well as featuring the monthly column from Liz Halliday-Sharp. Partnering with the USEA will not only allow those stories and more to reach more eventers, but the stories of more admirable eventers to be shared with Sidelines readers across all disciplines."
Sidelines Magazine's monthly printed publication and associated digital products capture the equestrian lifestyle—from feature stories on top athletes to trending horse-themed fashion and home décor. Through award-winning storytelling, Sidelines Magazine brings all equestrian disciplines to life.
“We are excited that Sidelines Magazine has committed to supporting the EA21 program and the AEC this year, along with their longstanding Media Partnership,” said USEA CEO, Rob Burk. “Sidelines has been a trusted news source in the industry for decades, and their continued support of the USEA is appreciated.

Thirty-five five-star horses presented today under sunny skies at the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event.
If all goes according to plan in the first part of the extended weekend, we will see 36 horses galloping across Derek di Grazia's CCI5*-L cross-country course at the 2024 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event (DK3DE). We partnered up with the team at CrossCountry App to bring you a preview of both the five-star and CCI4*-s tracks this year.
Lights, cameras, action! The first formal horse inspection (which some might informally refer to as "the jog") at the 2024 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event (K3DE) takes place this afternoon at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky. While this part of the event is a fan-favorite historically based on the impeccable turnout of the horses and the stylish and forward fashion choices of the riders (we are looking at you Boyd Martin in hopes that you bring back the American flag suit circa 2022), it serves a very important purpose: ensuring that each horse is fit, sound, and ready to compete at the five-star level.
There are so many things to love about the Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event and the opportunity to peruse the booths of so many amazing vendors is definitely one of them! Don’t forget to stop by the USEA booth, located just behind the Rolex Stadium next to the large Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event booth, to stock up on all of your favorite USEA apparel.
