Adult Rider Scholarship Competition: Postponed
Area IV Adult Riders

The USEA has asked us to hold off on awarding the Area 4 Adult Rider Scholarship pending possible changes to make sure it meets 501c3 certification.   The USEA Admin and Finance committee needs to work through IRS requirements so as not to jeopardize USEA status.  The head of the Admin and Finance committee said, "I do support this because we are an organization whose purpose is to educate the best horses and horsemen in the world."

Already submitted applications will be kept, although they may need modification depending on the outcome of the USEA discussion.  We will let you know as soon as we know if we can go forward with this opportunity in a safe and legal manner.  I apologize for the inconvenience - I guess I asked the wrong people, but now we do have the right people involved.
