🎙️ WE’RE LIVE!
Laurie Hudson and Liz Johnson have been talking about doing this for a while…and today we’re officially launching our new eventing podcast with TWO episodes! 🐎🎧

We want this podcast to be a place for conversations about the sport we love — what’s changing, what’s working, what happens behind the scenes, and the people and events that make Area 1 eventing special.

🎙️ EPISODE 1
Recognized, Schooling… or Both? Making Sense of Eventing’s Changing Competition Landscape
The eventing calendar looks a little different these days. We talk about recognized competitions, schooling events, the space in between, and what these changes may mean for competitors and organizers.

🎙️ EPISODE 2
Area 1 Spotlight - Huntington Farm (Host of the 2026 Area 1 Championships)
We kick off our Area 1 Spotlight series with Huntington Farm and take you behind the scenes of this longtime Area 1 event and host of this year's Area 1 Championships.
And the timing matters: Huntington Farm entries close August 10!
So if Huntington is on your calendar — or you're still deciding — give this one a listen.

▶️ Both episodes are available NOW on our YouTube channel:

Laurie Hudson and I will be at GMHA this weekend, we’ve got some fun things cooking up, and this spotlight is great timing! Watch this space for deets! 👀

At every horse trial, there is a group of hardworking officials in the background making each moment possible. We are so excited to feature some of these individuals on our channels so you can get to know them a little better. This month we are featuring Laurie Hudson ❤️

⭐ Laurie has been a USEA Technical Delegate for three years after a longtime official encouraged her to "take her place."

"I laughed and said no way could I do that!" Laurie shared. "But after some thought, I decided to do it."

⭐ One of Laurie's favorite memories as an official came while serving as an Assistant Technical Delegate at Millbrook alongside an experienced team. "I really enjoy being part of the team at an event," she said.

⭐ As a Technical Delegate, Laurie describes her role simply: "The TD is the rules person—to make sure there's a fair playing field and to help competitors understand any decisions that are made."

⭐ For Laurie, the best part of being an official is getting to interact with every corner of the sport, "from the organizer to the least experienced competitor."

⭐ If Laurie could compete anywhere in the U.S., she'd choose the USEA American Eventing Championships at the Kentucky Horse Park! And for anyone considering becoming an official, she has one important message: "We need officials! If you love the sport, consider it."

Thank you for everything you do for eventing, Laurie! 👏
