The Horse Trials Organizers Network, founded by Beth O’Malley, is a Facebook community created to support the often unseen but crucial work of event organizers, coordinators, and volunteers in the eventing world. Facing rising costs and increasing demands that have led to event closures nationwide, the group provides a platform for sharing ideas, resources, and problem-solving strategies to sustain grassroots events and ensure the sport’s future. This network fosters camaraderie and practical support among those dedicated to keeping local and regional horse trials running smoothly.
