Lexington, Ky.—Jan. 25, 2023—The U.S. Hunter Jumper Association is pleased to announce that the Lindsay Maxwell Charitable Fund is continuing their support of USHJA's educational opportunities as a supporter of the 2023 USHJA Gold Star Clinics and will become the title sponsor of the USHJA Gold Star Clinics in 2024.
"Education and horsemanship are at the core of USHJA's mission and we are grateful to Lindsay Maxwell Charitable Fund's longstanding support," said USHJA Executive Director Kevin Price. "The LMCF's generosity has helped make educational opportunities available to our members, and we are thankful for their support of our Gold Star Clinics."
After five years as title sponsor of the USHJA Emerging Athletes Program, the Lindsay Maxwell Charitable Fund has helped dozens of riders advance their equestrian education. Now, their support transitions to the USHJA Gold Star Clinics, further supporting their mission of enabling access to educational opportunities for equestrians.
"The Fund is thrilled to continue our partnership with USHJA as title sponsor of the USHJA Gold Star Clinics. The genesis of our partnership with USHJA is rooted in a mutual goal of providing access to educational opportunities to help ensure the future of our beloved sport. The Gold Star Clinics are an incredible opportunity for our sport’s rising stars to gain critical knowledge and experience from some of the top professionals in Show Jumping, which will benefit the future of our community for decades to come,” said Lindsay Maxwell, founder of the Lindsay Maxwell Charitable Fund.
The bicoastal Gold Star Clinics serve as the pinnacle of the USHJA Emerging Jumper Rider Program, which provides education and guidance to Jumper athletes looking to advance to the sport's highest levels. In 2023, the West Coast clinic will be held January 25-29 at Desert International Horse Park in Thermal, California, with lead clinicians Lauren Hough and Kirsten Coe and stable management clinician Colleen Reed.
