Equestrian Canada and Jump Canada’s Talent ID program advisor Beth Underhill, have proudly partnered with Angelstone Tournaments this week for the Headwater’s Cup CSI2* to hold a day geared to the kids. The second “Super Saturday” of the season will not only hold a silent auction generously donated by individual and corporate members of the Canadian equestrian community, but Keean White himself will donate 25% of the proceeds for every corporate VIP box sold to the Young Rider Foundation.
According to Underhill, “we are overwhelmed by the generosity of our equestrian community in donating such fabulous items for our silent auction.” The festivities will commence at 4 pm in the Cloud 9 lounge before the Grand Prix and will conclude at 8 pm following the class’ end. Come watch your favourite kid test their jumping abilities in the horseless horse show, or watch your “real” favourite horse battle it out in the live-spectacle event where national level horse-flesh will be tested for the $36, 000 purse.
Sports fans, especially of Jay’s variety, will have a chance at winning a SIGNED Josh Donaldson baseball bat. And if that wasn’t enough, a corporate box of 18 guests will be available for bidding at a Yankee’s vs. Blue Jay’s game at the Roger’s Centre on August 10th. Bring the whole farm to the city for the day and celebrate your Canadian Young Riders! There are countless prizes to go around, especially for those that can’t shake that horsey-fix. Earn 2 FREE Polo lessons, score an Antares Comfort Girth, or find yourself gearing up for that McLain Ward clinic you always put first on your Christmas list…It’s all there and more on Saturday night!
It is critical that we financially support the aspirations and development of our young people who are vying for spots on our Canadian nations cup teams,” concludes Underhill. When the prizes in exchange for the great cause you agree to support are quality, supporting a night geared to the Young Rider Foundation is a no-brainer and of course a must-attend.
