There’s a new documentary about horseman Buck Brannaman , called “Buck”, that’s getting a lot of attention lately - it won the 2011 Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival and early screenings predicted that it could be a mainstream hit. And guess what? “Buck” has been paying attention to us - Erin Gilmore’s Sidelines blog “On the Line” caught the eye of the flm makers after she wrote about it, and her post was passed around among the whole team! Kudos to us!

Congratulations to 21-year-old Ali Wolff of New Albany, OH, whom the United States Equestrian Team Foundation selected as the 2011 recipient of the Maxine Beard Show Jumping Rider Award . The award gave Ali the chance to be credentialed and travel with the U.S. delegation to the 2011 FEI World Cup Finals in Leipzig, Germany, this past spring. She saw the operations of an international championship, including the stabling area, veterinary inspections and schooling, and walked the courses with the U.S. Show Jumping Coach, George H. Morris.
