On-Line Christmas Auction Goes Live!

The second annual Christmas Gift On-Line Auction in support of the Horse Sport Young Riders’ Scholarship Fund has been launched. This year’s auction features more than 30 items to bid on, including two saddles that were generously donated by Schleese Saddlery and Cavalier to help raise money for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. One hundred per cent of the money raised through the auction of these items will go to support this great cause.

The Horse Sport Young Riders’ Scholarship Fund was established in 1998 to recognize the top Canadian performers at the annual North American Young Riders’ Championship in the three Olympic disciplines. This year’s winners include Jaclyn Duff of Alberta (show jumping), Alexandra Duncan of B.C. (dressage) and Jessica DiGenova of Ontario (eventing).
