I've been informed that USEF will issue a press release
@12:00 noon EDT. In the meantime, the following reference to
a recent USEF sponsored article might provide some insights
into the directions USEF wishes to take US International
Endurance.

To ultimately improve the U.S. chances for a WEG medal, "We
need to commit to long-term training, coaching and young
rider development programs and staff," said Priesz. To do
this, he said funding must be at least doubled to $400,000
to $500,000. And endurance must be marketed as a brand to
the public and corporate sponsors so that amateur riders can
receive grants and stipends to train together and attend
more clinics.

"We need to grow our support from our leading [Arabian]
breed organization and discipline club," Priesz added.

This financial base would allow USEF to fully implement its
10-year plan, which would help the U.S. regain its
competitive course. "Our goal is to develop a permanent
training center for our national team to train with an
indoor arena and a veterinary lab," said Priesz. "It would
be a permanent endurance village like they have overseas.
Our current team and staff do a great job, but ultimately we
need a place where we can add a professional edge to our
commitment and preparation."
