USDF Annual Meeting In Dallas Huge Success

Celebrating their 30th Anniversary, with over 30,000 members, the USDF held their annual convention if Dallas, Texas, from December 1-7, 2003, wrapping up another exciting year for its members.

It was a full week of meetings, seminars, educational forums, featuring the currently ranked #2 rider in the world, American Lisa Wilcox, and her Trainer, Ernst Hoyos in a two day Symposium, held over the weekend at the beautiful Stargate Sport Horses Facility.

The Trade Fair at the 2003 United States Dressage Federation, provided busy participants the opportunity to do their holiday shopping, and meet between a full schedule of USDF University sessions and meetings. Dressagedaily was “On the Scene” to meet many of its readers and friends. Lisa Wilcox, who resides in Germany full time, stopped by our booth to visit, with Ernst Hoyos on her arrival. Wilcox uses DressageDaily.com to keep her informed and connected to her homeland.

Shown here are John Seger, of Markel Corp., Lisa Wilcox, Mary Phelps, and Ernst Hoyos. Stay tuned to DressageDaily this week as we bring you a wrap up of some of the convention highlights, and photos.
