Area I of the United States Eventing Association is proud to announce the creation of a new scholarship program.
Area I will grant four awards of $250 each to deserving applicants to use for educational purposes such as clinics, lessons, and other learning opportunities. Two scholarships will be granted in the spring and two in the fall. One of the four awards is reserved for a professional horseman.
The application deadline for the spring award is March 15, and the deadline for the fall award is August 15.
All USEA members in good standing will be eligible to apply for and potentially receive these scholarships, although preference in the selection process is given to residents of Area I.

Today, we pause to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and reflect on the powerful moment in 1963 when he stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and shared his vision for a better future. Dr. King's "I Have a Dream" speech was more than just words; it was a call to action that transcended time, culture, and boundaries—a beacon of hope that continues to inspire.
