USEA Announces Nutrena As Title Sponsor Of The American Eventing Championships

By USEA

The United States Eventing Association’s American Eventing Championships have a new title sponsor for 2011 through 2013, Nutrena. The USEA is delighted to be partnering once again with their longtime sponsor and is expecting the next three years of the Nutrena/USEA American Eventing Championships to be the ultimate experience for all of the riders and horses who qualify to participate.

“For many years, the USEA has been an ideal partner for our Nutrena brand,” said Jackie Rieck, marketing manager for Nutrena. “Nutrena equine feeds and supplements support the high performance nutritional needs that horses require for eventing competition. We’re proud that our Nutrena feeds help so many USEA competitors and members achieve their performance goals.”

“Our long relationship with Nutrena has allowed the USEA to bring our members many valuable programs,” said Jo Whitehouse, USEA CEO. “We are thrilled that Nutrena is returning as the title sponsor of the USEA American Eventing Championships and thank them for their commitment to this important event.”

The Nutrena/USEA AEC will be held for the second year at the beautiful Chattahoochee Hills in Fairburn, Georgia from September 8-11. Last year’s event saw record numbers of competitors and attendees with fabulous competition in 14 divisions across six levels.

About the American Eventing Championships

Now in its eighth year, the popular American Eventing Championships offers qualified USEA members of all ages and levels the chance to compete in the only national championships of its kind in the United States. Each September, hundreds of juniors, adult amateurs, and professionals travel from all across the nation to participate in this prestigious competition, vying for the chance to win a piece of $60,000 in prize money and $100,000 in fabulous prizes.

After a successful tenure in Southern Pines, North Carolina and Wayne, Illinois, this is the second-of-three years that the Nutrena/USEA American Eventing Championships will be at the new world-class Georgia facility. Riders and spectators will enjoy the state-of-the-art stabling and amenities offered, as well as spectacular viewing areas for the entire show grounds.

Chattahoochee Hills Eventing is a relatively new equestrian facility on 8,000 lush acres located along the Chattahoochee River in the heart of South Atlanta in Fairburn, Georgia. Rising to the challenge of putting on a first class event, the Chattahoochee Hills team has been working non-stop since they were chosen by the USEA to host the AEC.

The 2024 K3DE Daily: First Horse Inspection

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.
