United States Eventing Association

Thank You to the Sponsors of the 2023 USEA Annual Meeting and Convention

This year’s USEA Annual Meeting & Convention was a special week in St. Louis, Missouri. It included several days of celebration and education, including the year-end annual awards ceremony, as well as the Annual Meeting of Members with very special keynote presentation by Dr. Temple Grandin at the USEA luncheon. This week and weekend would not have been possible without the support of the many loyal partners of the USEA and the Convention.

The USEA would first like to thank its Corporate Level sponsors and partners, who dedicate their time and resources to the USEA programs, events, and membership year-round, helping the sport of eventing thrive in the United States. Special appreciation to Adequan “The Official Joint Therapy Treatment of the USEA,” Bates “The Official Saddle of the USEA,” Nutrena “The Official Feed of the USEA,” Standlee “The Official Forage of the USEA,”  SmartPak “The Official Supplement Feeding System of the USEA,” Parker Equine Insurance “The Official Equine Insurance of the USEA,” Kerrits “The Official Competition and Training Apparel of the USEA,” and Capital Square “The Official Real Estate Partner of the USEA.”

Lastly, the USEA’s Area IV stepped up to support the USEA Convention, and the USEA was thrilled to host the Convention in St. Louis, Missouri this year. Thank you to everyone for their support, and thank you to everyone who attended the convention and this great week for the sport.
