WELCOME FROM THE KENTUCKY HORSE PARK
Friends,
The Commonwealth of Kentucky is pleased to welcome
back the United States Eventing Association American
Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds to
the Kentucky Horse Park. We hope you enjoy your time
at the park and in Central Kentucky.
The Kentucky Horse Park is a 1,200-acre working horse farm that welcomes
over 500,000 visitors annually from around the world. The Park's mission is
to celebrate our relationship with the horse through education, exhibition,
engagement, and competition. Guests are able to enjoy the International Museum
of the Horse, the Hall of Champions, the Parade of Breeds, and countless other
attractions. During your stay we hope you will explore and discover the many
treasures that make the Park unique.
The Kentucky Horse Park opened to the public in 1978. As the host facility for
the 1978 World Championships, the sport of eventing has been a key part of
our story and was instrumental in putting this Park on the world's stage. From
Bruce Davidson to Oliver Townend, from The gray Goose to winsome Adante,
the hills of the Park have seen the world's best compete. As you compete this
week you are writing for us the next great chapter in our story! A chapter we
look forward to retelling for years to come.
Again, welcome to the Kentucky Horse Park. Good luck and best wishes for a
great week of sport at the American Eventing Championships.
Sincerely,
Alston Kerr, Chair
Kentucky Horse Park Commission
