Sidelines Magazine has a great time hosting contests and giving
out fantastic prizes to equestrians all across the country. It’s fun
for us to see how excited everyone is to enter – and of course we
love the reaction of the contestants who win.
Well hold on to your helmets, because Sidelines is about to
offer the “Contest Of A Lifetime!” (I had to capitalize every word
– the prize is that Big!) If you have ever dreamed of competing
at the FTI Consulting Winter Equestrian Festival (FTI WEF) in
Wellington, Florida – the winter show capital of the horse world
– then your dream could become a reality. You could be packing
your bags and heading to South Florida for fun, sun and a little
horse showing!
Sidelines has joined forces with the FTI Consulting Winter
Equestrian Festival to offer the
FTI ConsultingWinter Equestrian
Festival Sidelines Magazine Exclusive Showing Vacation
Contest!
This exclusive showing vacation is a three-day weekend
package during the 11th week of FTI WEF, March 22-24, 2013.
If you aren’t excited yet, read on. Oh, did we mention the prize
package has a value of between $4,000 and $5,000.
Here is what the lucky winner will ride away with: A three-day
show experience at the FTI WEF on a horse or pony provided
by the Palm Beach Riding Academy. At the Palm Beach Riding
Academy, head trainer and general manager Sean Jones will give
you a lesson and let you hack to the show grounds to compete
in the division you are qualifed for including ponies, hunters and
equitation. (No jumper divisions will be offered.)
Sidelines is the offcial lifestyle magazine of the FTI WEF and
that means you need a great “lifestyle” while in Wellington, so the
prize package includes staying at one of the FTI WEF luxurious
Offcial Hotels! The prize package also includes dinner on Saturday
night in the International VIP Club to watch the Saturday Night
Lights $100,000 Suncast 1.50m Championship Jumper Classic
