Pensacola Highlights and Lots of News!

  • Save
I just returned from the USEF Annual meeting in Cincinnati, so I missed the first week in Pensacola but I understand they had a great week.  The following are the highlights and at the bottom of this page is lots of BIG NEWS.

This year we made some changes to our schedules so that the Classics are held on Saturday instead of Sunday.  That made it so everyone was able to make their getaway flights since the show ended earlier.  Classic Company will continue this “Classic” schedule with all their shows this year.

The week started out with a great party hosted by Pensacola Sports Association hosted an “Iron Chef” party with the finest chefs from the area and everyone was talking about it the next day.

On Saturday night we had our first $25,000 Grand Prix sponsored by Johnson Horse Transport. The class was won by Triompf, owned by Sarah Patterson and ridden to the win by Holly Shepherd.
