2008 JUMPER RIDER GRANT PROGRAM

West Coast Active Riders is pleased to present the Jumper Riders Grant again in 2008 (previously called the Meritorious Rider Grant).  The Grant includes a total of $5,000 credit towards entries in the jumper divisions and stabling fees at west coast horse shows.

Within the 2008 show year, up to two winners will receive $1,000 of jumper division/stabling horse show credit per participating show manager and selected show facilities as listed below.

Awarded on the basis of athletic and academic merit as well as financial need, these grants enable up-and-coming riders who are dedicated to their education and the sport of show jumping the opportunity to compete at horse shows they may otherwise not have attended. 

WCAR is grateful for the generosity of the show managers who make this grant possible:
Tom Struzzieri: HITS Thermal
Dale Harvey: Del Mar National, Del Mar International, Fall Festival Horse Shows
Robert Ridland & Stephanie Wheeler: Oaks-Blenheim & Showpark Facilities
Larry & Marnye Langer: LAEC, Woodside & Colorado Horse Park
Tim Postel: Pebble Beach Equestrian Center

* The 2008 Jumper Grant will award $5,000 of credit per rider *
