Vermont Summer Festival Expands to Six Weeks in 2007
The Vermont Summer Festival, New England’s largest “AA” rated hunter/jumper horse show, will expand to six weeks in 2007. Traditionally a five-week competition, the opportunity to add a sixth week to the summer show jumping series in 2007 was presented due to a date rotation anomaly in the United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) competition calendar. Originally scheduled for July 18 to August 19, 2007, the Vermont Summer Festival will now begin on July 11 and feature six full weeks of hunter/jumper competition.
