Dressage Canada has received a generous private donation of $500,000. Offered in annual donations of $125,000 over the next four years, the money is to be used towards the High Performance Priorities identified at the High Performance Summit held in Florida this past March.

The first ever summit of its kind for Dressage Canada brought together stakeholders from across the country and included high performance athletes, owners, coaches, FEI officials, veterinarians, volunteers, Board members, Equine Canada staff and support team members.

The next step in the process is to build the programs and address the priorities identified as instrumental in order for Canada to reach the podium at the Olympic level. The key element to the successful implementation of these programs will be the sourcing of resources, both staffing and financial.
