In September of 2010, the FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG) are leaving Europe for the first time, and landing in the heart of the USA. As the eyes of the equestrian world turn to Kentucky Horse Park, it is realized that our country can showcase it's love for the sport of horses like never before.
There are many equestrian events unique to the United States, including western equestrian drill. This is the chance to show equestrian drill to the world. So it is with great honor and respect that the California Cowgirls Equestrian Drill Team announces its invitation to the WEG.
The FEI World Equestrian Games are comprised of the world championships for eight equestrian sports. They are held every four years, two years prior to the Olympic Games, and are recognized by the International Olympic Committee. As these equestrian sports are predominately English riding- the California Cowgirls are excited to be an example of "real western cowgirls" to a whole new crowd of equestrian enthusiasts. The California Cowgirls also take pride representing the sport of western equestrian drill at the WEG. Over 600,000 spectators are expected to attend the WEG; and combined with worldwide television coverage, the numbers are easily in the millions.
The FEI World Equestrian Games will be held from September 26th to October 10th 2010. The California Cowgirls Equestrian Drill Team has been asked to be there all sixteen days to perform their drill, as well as host and escort dignitaries and athletes in attendance. The California Cowgirls strive to not only to showcase the best of equestrian drill; but also to bring a smile to every person they meet. These cowgirls want to be shining examples of the "Western Hospitality" here in America.
