James Alliston and Karma secure his third victory in a row at Rebecca Farm. Photo by Shannon Brinkman.The Event at Rebecca Farm is set to begin in less than one month in Kalispell, Montana. Competitors from around the country are preparing to travel to the event, and thanks to the generosity of the Broussard Family Charitable Foundation and administration of the USEA Foundation, that trip will be made more accessible through the Rebecca Farm Travel Grants.For 2024, applications for those grants were accepted through June 1, and recipients were notified by June 15 of their selection to receive those grant funds. Since the inception of these travel grants in 2011, over $200,000 has been awarded to help offset expenses related to competing at Rebecca Farm as riders pursue their eventing dreams of representing the U.S. at international competition.These grants are available to any rider of any age who is successfully competing at the CCI3* or higher levels and has not already represented the U.S. at the Olympics, World Championships, or Pan American Games.Alexa Thompson and Just To Be Clear.

Such invitations to interview will be conveyed by email, text, or phone communications directed to the applicants.

What a fantastic day at the Killyleagh Show for our team at Narrow Water! We are so proud of our 4-year-old Connemara mare, Adrigoole Princess, who placed 3rd in her first mountain and moorland in hand class. She showed off her amazing temperament and took the big atmosphere in stride. Ex-racer, Canary Row, also had a successful day in the Racehorse to riding horse classes. He picked up a first place and was then named reserve Champion! It's amazing to see him still shining after his retirement from ridden career due to kissing spine diagnosis. We are grateful for these classes that allow us to continue showcasing these lovely horses even after their ridden careers have ended. #KillyleaghShow #NarrowWaterEquestrian #ProudHorseOwners
