About Us: June 2010 Archives

I want to share a story that makes me glow with pride for Eventing Nation.  If you recall, in my semi-delirious Sunday morning reader from last weekend I linked to eventer4life's blog.  As an aside, I thought it might quite possibly be my last link ever considering I was about to go out on XC with a young horse who can jump a mile but often does so in three different directions at once, but I survived and here we are now.  I linked to the blog because it was a young eventer writing about her first horse trials with her new horse and I thought it made for good reading, and Tuesday night eventer4life responded on Sunday morning post with the following comment:

Wow!
Thank you for putting my blog on here!
I actually had 502 views the day this was posted, up from....4...the day before.
So WOW and thanks again!

You're more than welcome eventer4life; Eventing Nation had a couple of days with 4 readers way back when we started. And well done Eventing Nation--we each are powerless as one person behind a computer, but united together as Eventing Nation we have a great deal of power to influence, and, in this case, make a young eventer's day.  Go eventing.

It is with a great sense of pride that I welcome Tack of the Day and Nunn Finer to the Eventing Nation team.  John Nunn has been a supporter of Eventing Nation from the very beginning and he sponsored our Rolex $100 Bit of Britain Challenge earlier this year.  I am also very thankful to Mr. Nunn for providing me with valuable advice and guidance throughout the development of Eventing Nation.

I'd like to extend a special welcome to Point-Two as Eventing Nation's latest sponsor.  Point-Two was one of the first companies to contact us about advertising on Eventing Nation and they have consistently expressed a desire to give back to our readers and positively influence our sport.  That's what we are all about here on EN, and we are proud to be partnering with Point-Two.  We will have Point-Two vests as prizes for contests on EN over the coming months, and we will release the details of the first contest soon.  For more information on the Point-Two vest click the hand-dandy banner.  Go eventing.
