dcro 10,172 Posted April 30, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Tamie Smith & Mai Baum win the Kentucky Three Day Event - #BestWeekendAllYear. Heck yes! First home champion since 2008 and really a huge win for Californian eventing community. It has been really exciting to follow Tamie's rise in eventing, which pretty much started when I also started following eventing more regularly (right around Rio 2016). mrv86 and Olympian1010 2 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh 4,924 Posted July 4, 2023 #9 Share Posted July 4, 2023 (edited) https://www.gofundme.com/f/2023-pan-am-games-please-help-send-a-team In December of 2023, a number of our talented Canadian riders declared their intention to attempt to qualify to represent Canada at the 2023 Pan Am Games. Each athlete will spend $50-80,000 minimum, of their own money to maintain their high performance horse for one year. This is before any actual expenses or lost income for a month away for the games. Contrary to popular opinion, Equestrian Canada provides no funding to riders wishing to represent Canada on an international team…with the exception of flights for athlete and horse, hotel and some food at the games themselves. 6 months after the athletes made this commitment and tens of thousands of dollars specifically to try to qualify for this team, our non-profit national federation, Equestrian Canada, informed us they had a shortfall of $60,000. We were told if they could not raise $60,000, there would be no team sent to the Pan Am games. With no team at these games, there would be no way to qualify a team for the Olympics next year. A very sad state of affairs. This $60,000 is needed to pay for the athletes and their horses to fly to Santiago, Chile. It would also go towards hotel and food. This was all that Equestrian Canada had promised to provide in the way of financial help for the riders. But now that is not available either. The athletes are working diligently to raise the funds through clinics, galas, etc. And we have some amazing ideas for the future so that our athletes have the support that most other sports take for granted. Equestrian Canada has hired a consultant to work on their fund raising capabilities. Hopefully we can work at ending this last ditch, desperate begging for money that seems to happen year after year. But time is of the essence. The games are in October 2023, so we have been put in a situation of frantically trying to raise the funds we need to make these games, as well as the 2024 Olympics, a reality for Canada. If anyone can find it in their heart to donate, it would be much appreciated. Edited July 4, 2023 by Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lea26 32 Posted August 23, 2023 #10 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Yesterday was held the eventing "test-event" in Versailles. The main goal was to test the quality of the ground and the stability of the bridge on the canal. Only 4 (unknown?) riders took part.
