How the USEF Can Revive the Sport Through the Affiliates – The Plaid Horse

I recently attended a USHJA Town Hall by Bill Moroney with exhibitors at a top quality hunter jumper show in my area. Information was exchanged about programs and rule changes, but much of the discussion concerned the loss of smaller B and C rated shows and decrease in USEF membership. The increased costs of showing at USEF recognized shows is putting the sport out of reach for more people each year. The plethora of fees and date licensing are major factors in these increased costs for exhibitors.
