Lexington, KY—The United States Equestrian Federation® (USEF) again asks our competition organizers and managers to consider becoming or continuing to be a part of the very successful Outreach Program which was initiated in 2005. This program has continued to build a productive bridge between the USEF staff, competition organizers, show managers and exhibitors/competitors. This gives USEF staff first hand experience in observing and helping our licensed events, and the opportunity to learn about the issues facing our shows. This will ultimately allow us to better serve our members.

In 2007, it is anticipated that staff will be sent to approximately 30-40 shows of various levels, and in as many breeds and disciplines as possible. When you request staff, please indicate if there is a specific issue you would like the staff member to address, so that we may send someone with the expertise required to address your concerns.
