Already an active supporter of horse shows from the local to national levels and spanning from hunter/jumper and dressage to reining and Western pleasure, SmartPak™ announced that they have partnered with HITS for their upcoming winter circuits. The partnership spans both coasts with a sponsorship of the HITS Ocala Winter Circuit in Florida and a sponsorship of the HITS Desert Circuit in Thermal, CA, two of the biggest horse show circuits in the United States.

In preparation for the eight-week winter circuits, HITS exhibitors ordering feed and bedding online can also order their supplements and medications in daily dose SmartPaks™, simply by clicking on the SmartPak link on the HITS online order form. “SmartPaks offer the ultimate in convenience when traveling—there’s no need to make up baggies to make sure your horse is fed right when traveling and no need to pack big buckets of bulk supplements to take on long trips,” said Becky Minard, founder and VP of SmartPak. “The HITS show circuits are among the most well run in the country and with so many of our customers already traveling to the Ocala and Thermal shows each winter, it made a lot of sense for us to partner with HITS.”

Exhibitors at both locales can have their SmartPaks delivered straight to the SmartPak Delivery Station on the show grounds, where they can also pick up any other mail or packages.

“We’re really looking forward to working with SmartPak for our 2009 winter circuits,” said HITS President and CEO Tom Struzzieri. “SmartPak has developed an innovative product that is easily customized for each individual horse, providing horsemen with quality and consistency.”

The HITS Ocala Winter Circuit will kick off on January 14, 2009, at Post Time Farm in Ocala and will end with the Ocala Winter Celebration on March 15. HITS Desert Circuit will begin on January 20 at HITS Desert Horse Park and will run through March 22.
