Wellington, FL – December 21, 2009 – The USET Foundation Holiday Fundraiser, presented by SUCCEED and Wellington Classic Dressage, was a great success as spectators had the opportunity to experience the one-of-a-kind equestrian event featuring performances, exhibitions and team competitions with Olympians and many top equestrian stars. A benefit for the United States Equestrian Team (USET) Foundation, the fundraiser was held at the Jim Brandon Equestrian Center in Wellington, FL, on December 11 and 12, 2009.
Through generous donations, silent and live auctions, and ticket purchases the event raised a generous amount of money to help support the USET Foundation’s high performance programs. The USET Foundation is preparing to send teams to the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG) in Kentucky next fall, and will help provide funding for the competition, training, coaching and travel of America’s elite horses and riders in partnership with the United States Equestrian Federation. The money raised from the holiday fundraiser will help support this country’s high performance programs.
“We are so grateful to Lyndsey White, John Flanagan and Noreen O’Sullivan for organizing this fabulous holiday event to benefit our U.S. equestrian teams,” said Bonnie B. Jenkins, Executive Director of the USET Foundation. “It was lots of fun for everyone involved and a great way to get in the holiday spirit!” Read more> http://www.horsesinthesouth.com/article/article_detail.aspx?id=9394
