The beautiful Area II Year End championship trophies will be on display at the April Fair Hill International competition on Friday (late morning to afternoon) and Saturday (morning to end of competition). Please stop by and spend some time with them! Because we have not been able to hold an annual meeting, we are taking them on the road for Area II eventers to enjoy. We will be located in the Sponsor Tent at the top of the hill above the International Arena, on the Gallaher Road side where all competition is scheduled to take place. There will be competition going on from CCI4* to Training Level, so lots to see! Please check the Fair Hill International website for directions for parking and access. 

Attention ALL Young/Future Event Horse Owners and Riders/Handlers!

Announcing YEH/FEH trophy sponsorship

YEH/FEH: Sign up NOW for Year End Awards for Area II

The USEA Area II year end awards program is offering two sponsored trophies in the Future Event Horse of the Year and Young Event Horse of the Year categories for 2022.

The USEA Area II MERLIN MEMORIAL Young Event Horse Championship, sponsored by Dr. Elizabeth Callahan in honor of her horse Merlin (Mighty Magic-Leia/Le Champion). “I’m proud of our US-bred event horses, and will continue to support the Young Event Horse program, and our sport, in whatever ways I can. Merlin participated in both the FEH and the YEH, and this award in his memory is for the top placing Young Event Horse in Area 2.” The 2021 winner was Archelos (Despite the Odds-Sailboat Sally) owned by April Shepherd, and ridden by Rebecca Lee.

Also put in service in 2021 is the Cool Na Grena Future Event Horse trophy, also sponsored by Dr. Elizabeth Callahan, and the winner was Utah Beach (Ulmar Mail-Avalon) owned by Monica Fiss-Burdette. Our thanks and appreciate to Dr. Callahan for her support.

The 2022 Area II Year End Awards registration is now open!
