Lexington, KY - The United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) will host an open forum for the jumping community on Monday, November 7, 2011, at the Kentucky Horse Park Visitor's Center's South Theater.
The forum will take place from 8:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m. ET, and will be broadcast live on the USEFNetwork.com. Howard Pike will moderate the open forum which is designed to provide a sounding board for members interested in the sport of show jumping. Forum participants will tackle issues in the sport today. Primary goals are to explore opportunities to grow the sport and to build strong and internationally competitive teams to represent the U.S. on the world stage. Anyone invested in the sport is welcome and encouraged to attend and to be heard.
