Hello everyone! The Michigan Equestrian Team is holding a fundraiser to help send our team to IHSA Nationals in Tryon, NC! This year, our Vice President, Madison La Pine, qualified for Open Fences, and our Lesson Coordinator, Josie Anderson, qualified for Limit Flat.
Qualifying for Nationals is incredibly competitive, only the top 24 riders in the country in each division earn a spot to compete, so we are thrilled to support them on this exciting journey.
Nationals is a significant financial undertaking, with expenses including transportation, housing, training, and entry fees. We don’t want cost to be a limiting factor for our qualified riders, so we’re asking for your support. Every donation, no matter the size, helps make this dream possible!
This fundraiser will remain open until April 30th. The GoFundMe link is below and in our bio. Thank you so much for supporting the Michigan Equestrian Team and our IHSA National qualifiers and feel free message us with any questions!
