Mythic Landing Enterprises and the USEA Team Up to Highlight the Future and Young Event Horse Programs


Gaithersburg, Maryland - Mythic Landing Enterprises and the United States Eventing Association (USEA) are joining forces to highlight the growing Young Event Horse (YEH) and Future Event Horse (FEH) programs. A new online column on USEventing.com will feature horses and riders that have made an impact on the young horse community, and both participants and graduates of the YEH and FEH programs. The articles will range in topic from training tips for the up-and-comers of the sport, to profiles of riders, owners, judges and horses, with a spotlight on American-bred horses.
“I'm thrilled to be teaming up with the USEA for this new online column. Many of Mythic Landing's clients are active participants in the Future Event Horse and Young Event Horse programs, so this is a great match!” said Margaret Rizzo McKelvy, President of Mythic Landing Enterprises. “We're very much looking forward to bringing you both FEH and YEH success stories, as well as insightful training pieces with some of our country's best young horse trainers.”  
Readers will have the privilege of learning what the YEH and FEH judges are looking for when they evaluate youngsters in competitions. Susan Graham White, a USEF ‘R’ dressage judge and YEH/FEH judge expressed her excitement about the collaboration, saying, “I am excited to have Mythic Landing on board to help USEA promote the FEH program! The FEH program is strongly committed to helping our breeders and owners through education, competition and promotional opportunities.”
