Chester Weber Donates Two Days of TrainingBy Press Release · January 11, 2011
Combined driver Chester Weber, the eight-time USEF National Four-In-Hand Combined Driving champion, will donate a package for two days of training during the silent auction at the upcoming “Salute to Driving” USET Fundraiser for driving. Weber will give the winner of the silent auction two days of instruction with either his or her own horses or Weber's.
The “Salute to Driving” fundraiser is a weekend for all levels to learn and have fun. The event includes two days of Advanced/FEI-level and ADS lower-level clinics, a benefit party, combined test, and other activities to help educate equine enthusiasts from other disciplines.
“Salute to Driving” will be held on Chateau Log Farm and Courage to Lead Farm in Windsor, South Carolina, and the Country Dinner Benefit will be held at Trout Walk Farm in Aiken, South Carolina. The event will take place February 19 - 21, 2011.
“I am really looking forward to the “Salute to Driving” weekend and especially offering a package for two days of training at the silent auction. I believe the USET is a very worthy cause and the money raised during this weekend will go toward sending the U.S. driving athletes to international competitions,” Weber said. “During the weekend there will be developing drivers clinics given by Larry Poulin and a two-day advanced long-listed drivers clinic with Michael Freund, so it should be a fantastic experience for everyone involved.”
The weekend will also include a combined test judged by Freund, Marth Nicoll, Marsoe LaRose, and Craig Kellogg. During the lunch break of the combined test, there will be a pas de deux with Phillip Dutton riding and Shelly Temple driving.
