fyi - AERC does help RM's -  with $7500 to pay vet fees and expenses.  
This is a big deal, and as this years NC ride manager, it is GREATLY  
appreciated. My vet fees/expenses are going to be over $8k.  - fees,  
accomodation, food, travel, etc - really adds up - I have such a  
difficult course because of all the out vet checks, that I need a lot  
of vets to make sure everybody is well covered.
