MEET OUR 22/23 TEAM CAPTIAN!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

My name is Kirsten Buckwalter and I am this year's team captain. I’m 16 years old and I’ve been involved in IEA for three years and this year will be my fourth. I have been riding and showing Quarter Horses my entire life. Right now my family owns 6 horses and we have a 120 acre farm that I have grown up working on. Ever since I was little I have loved my horses and now through the help of IEA and other connections I am striving to pursue a career in the horse industry. I plan to attend college for nursing and then start my own training business when I am out of college. I hope that this season we can get a lot accomplished and have a very successful season!

Planning to SHOP on Amazon Prime Day (July 12 - 13, 2022)?

Did you know that Amazon offers non-profit organizations a portion of your purchase total through their AMAZON SMILE program?

It is easy to support IEA this way without even thinking about it.

Go to https://smile.amazon.com and select INTERSCHOLASTIC EQUESTRIAN ASSOCIATION (Chagrin Falls, OH) as your non-profit charity of choice in the upper left hand corner.

Then, on PRIME DAY and EVERY DAY when you shop on Amazon - use the link from smile.amazon.com and the IEA Benevolent Fund will benefit from your purchases. Every little bit helps!

Thank you for your support and taking the time to choose IEA.
