2025 Rebecca Farm Event Program

Community is the commitment we make to each other When a community is strong, it's more than a collection of streets and buildings—it's a place that helps its residents thrive.

That's why we're committed to building stronger communities as a proud supporter of Rebecca Farm.

Making a big difference

Welcome to

THE EVENT

T

wenty four years have galloped by since we first staged The Event at Rebecca Farm. It was founder Rebecca Broussard’s simple desire to build a top-level venue and host a world class competition.

We fulfilled that desire relatively early in our journey.

Sometimes, accomplishing a goal is easier than maintaining it, but that hasn’t been the case with The Event.

From the outset, it’s been our mission to treat people as if they’re guests in our home. That warm, heartfelthospitality is what truly makes The Event special and why The Event has the image and standing it has – not only in the United States but around the world.

Rebecca Farm’s hospitality is probably the thing we’re most proud of over all these years. It’s made possible by the enduring support of our local community and competitors from around the country.

It’s made possible by our volunteers, who manifest our mission in every touchpoint with you -- our guests.

And it’s made possible by a team working throughout the year to make this magical July week possible. Most of our staff has been with us since day-one. Their experience, care and dedication underlie every positive experience our guests rely on to tide them over until next year. (Read about one of our very special team members, Heidi Diegel, here in the program.)

We’re excited about so many things this year! We had more Rebecca Farm Travel Grants recipients than ever – including far-flung first-timers to The Event. We have a rock star line-up from all over the country for the CCI4*-L. We have high quality horsemanship filling every level – including our Novice and Training Three Day Event divisions that preserve the foundation of our sport.

We have the 2023 Defender Kentucky CCI5* champion Mai Baum retiring after closing his remarkable 10year international career with a CCI4*-S run.

And we have our founder Rebecca’s spirit to celebrate and honor. The Halt Cancer at X campaign has now raised over $1 million. The funds support research into breast cancer treatment and cures and to help make life a little easier for those living with the disease. Rebecca was one of the too-many taken by this disease and we’re grateful for your support in fighting back against it.

Saddle up, sign up to volunteer, enjoy a front row seat for cross-country on the Hill, bid on an HCX auction item or visit the Kids Zone and Shopping Fair. Whatever your role here, you are welcome in our home!

Jerome, Beth, Rebecca, Sarah and our fellow MEE Board Members

FOREWARD

BY THE FEI PRESIDENT

O

n behalf of the Fédération Equestre Internationale, it is my pleasure to welcome you back to the prestigious Rebecca Farm here in Kalispell, Montana (USA), where together we will witness top-sport across competitions ranging from CCI1* through to CCI4*. Rebecca Farm is well renowned within the Eventing community and has been organising events since over 20 years, with the first international Eventing event in 2003.

Over the years, FEI Eventing has treated us to many unforgettable moments of top-class, edge of your seat action at venues all around the world. And here in Kalispell, we will once again be fortunate to see some of the world’s best athletes put on display their talent all while featuring core values inherent to Eventing, such as mutual trust, courage and communication. The performances of each pair reflect countless hours of training and years of dedication, backed up by the invaluable support of their entourage in helping them fulfil their potential and compete on the international stage.

The combination of Dressage, Cross Country and Jumping is hugely demanding and I am always left in awe by the unbelievable feats of bravery and relentless hard work it takes to excel over these three daring disciplines. It is the unique bond between horse and human which ultimately enables impressive feats of athleticism to be achieved and the core around which the whole FEI community revolves.

It takes rigorous planning as well as tireless work on behalf of an Organising team to successfully run an event of such scale and prestige. I sincerely want to thank and congratulate Jerome Broussard and his team for the fantastic sporting moments we get to be a part of here in Kalispell year after year.

I wish all athletes and their entourage the best of luck! To the fans, I hope you will enjoy every moment of the best our sport has to offer.

Ingmar De Vos FEI President

It feels appropriate that he step back from his career at the place where he began to take center stage in the Eventing world.

venting, considered the triathlon of equestrian competition, proves the athleticism and partnership of horses and riders.

Competitors must complete three distinct phases, with scores in each phase combining for the final placings. Whether you seek the harmony and grace of dressage, the stamina and bravery of cross-country, or the precision and agility of stadium jumping, the sport has something for every spectator to enjoy.

CROSS-COUNTRY The ultimate test of stamina, bravery, and partnership between horse and rider, the cross-country phase is exciting for competitors and spectators.

THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM THE THREE PHASES Dressage: This French word actually means “training.” As the first of three tests, dressage is meant to show that the horse can be obedient and the horse-and-rider pair is harmonious. It is ridden in an arena with low sides and letters around the perimeter. Competitors perform the test from memory (different levels have different tests), executing certain movements at the different letters indicated. It’s a bit like the compulsory figures in figure skating.

A great dressage test should be graceful and quiet—in other words, the horse should look as though he is performing without input from the rider. The judge or judging panel looks for obedience, lightness, and “acceptance of the bridle,” which means that the horse is steady in his head and body carriage and connected to the rider through the seat, legs, and reins.

A fussy horse, or one that spooks, speeds up, or otherwise looks unhappy will get a lower score on the movements.

Cross-Country: This phase is the most exciting and demanding of the three phases, and the one many spectators enjoy the most.

Horses emerge from the start box and gallop across over undulating terrain, with 24 to 36 solid obstacles, within the time allowed— again, this is specified by level. This is the ultimate test of the horse’s fitness, stamina, and bravery. The rider’s knowledge of pace

and of his or her horse’s specific strengths and weaknesses also factor in. Crosscountry obstacles include wide tables, water jumps, ditches, up- and down-banks, and many more. The natural terrain also plays a role, and a cross-country course designer takes the hills and valleys of the course into consideration when placing jumps. The obstacles are flagged—white on the left and red on the right. Horse and rider must jump over the obstacle and between the flags. If a flag is knocked down, the ground jury may decide to apply penalties.

Show Jumping: Also referred to as the jumping test, this phase features 12 to 15 obstacles in an arena. Unlike the fences in the cross-country phase, the jumps are constructed from rails that come down when hit. As in the cross-country phase, the jumps are flagged, and each jump is numbered in the order it’s to be jumped. Riders must start after the judge blows the whistle (or rings a bell), and time starts once the horse goes through the timers. The aim of the show jumping phase is to leave all of the jump rails up while completing the course within the time limit. Horses must be both precise and agile, which may be particularly difficult if the pair had completed cross-country the previous day.

A F E W FAC T S A B O U T E V E N T I N G Riders compete the same horse throughout the event. It’s also one of the few sports where men and women compete against each other. And as far as age—well, most riders get better as they get older, so it’s not unusual to see high-level competitors in their 50s.

36 THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM 2025

DRESSAGE A great dressage ride is characterized by grace, fluidity, and softness.

At the end of the three phases, the penalties are calculated, and the rider with lowest score—lowest number of penalties—is declared the winner of their division.

A CONCISE HISTORY Originally called “military” (militaire, as it was called in French), eventing has its roots in training for the battlefield. The International Equestrian Federation (FEI), which governs the discipline at its highest levels, states that “eventing originated as a military competition

that tested officers and horses in challenges that could occur on- or off-duty. It also provided a basis to compare training standards between the cavalries of different countries.”

Eventing first appeared as an Olympic event in 1912 in Stockholm, Sweden, and was considered the complete test of a young army officer’s charge. Horses and riders completed five tests that included endurance (roads and tracks), cross-country, steeplechase (speed), jumping, and dressage. The endurance and cross-country phases took place over REBECCAFARM.ORG

approximately 34 miles and had a total time limit of four hours! The steeplechase included 10 obstacles over a two-mile course. The jumping portion required 15 obstacles that measured more than four feet high with a maximum spread of nearly 10 feet. Riders competed for both team and individual medals and only commissioned officers could compete until after World War II. With various changes in format, eventing has been included in nearly all Olympic Games

38 THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM 2025

since then, save during the World Wars. As mounted troops gave way to tanks during World War II, Olympic eventing also saw a change in its team compositions. The 1952 Olympics in Helsinki, Finland, brought the first civilian competitors. The first female Olympic eventer competed in 1964. The sport remained fairly unchanged until 2004, when a new format was introduced.

Sometimes called the “short format,” this new system removed the endurance and speed phases, leaving only dressage, cross-

SCORING Dressage: Each dressage test movement receives a score on a scale from 0, meaning “not performed,” to 10, meaning “excellent.” The total score is then converted into “penalties.”

So, the higher the score, the lower the penalties assigned.

These penalties carry forward through the other phases, which is why the dressage phase is so important to the end result.

Cross-Country: Penalties are incurred when a horse stops in front of a jump, runs beyond it without jumping, or jumps outside of the flags. Time penalties are added for going over the time allowed or even coming in too fast. The term “double clear” means that the horse incurred no jumping or time penalties. Any penalties are added to those from dressage.

Multiple refusals or one fall of horse or rider is grounds for elimination.

Show Jumping: Refusals, knockdowns, and exceeding the time allowed incur penalties, which are added to those from dressage and cross-country.

country, and show jumping. The change was a compromise that made the sport more television-friendly and took up less land and resources—a necessity to keep the sport in the Olympic line-up.

T H E S P O R T T O DAY

The Event at Rebecca Farm offers competitors and spectators alike the opportunity to see both the “classic” eventing format, which, on endurance day, includes roads and tracks, steeplechase, and cross-country, and the

modern short format that is part of the international competition landscape.

Over the five days of competition, there are divisions that range from beginner novice through CCI**** (Concours Complet International four star), which showcases some of the most talented horses and riders competing at the top of the sport internationally.

CLASSIC COMPETITION

The Event at Rebecca Farm is one of only a handful of competitions to host a “classic” event. Sometimes called a “three-day” or “long format,” it includes dressage on day one, endurance on day two, and stadium on day three. Endurance has four phases: A and C are roads and tracks, B is steeplechase, and D is cross-country obstacles. Rebecca Farm offers the three-day at the novice and training levels.

The classic event is the ultimate test of horse-and-rider fitness. During phases A and C (roads and tracks), riders trot through marked gates over several kilometers, warming up their horses and pacing them to meet an optimum time. After phase A, riders continue to phase B, the steeplechase. This is made up of several brush fences set on an oval track.

These are taken at speed, and horses are encouraged to jump through the brush rather than over it. After steeplechase, the riders bring the horses back to the trot for phase C, which is like phase A, only longer and slower and meant to help cool down the horse.

After phase C, the rider brings the horse to the “10-minute box” for veterinary inspection and cooling out before moving on to crosscountry. After the rider dismounts, the vet will check the horse’s temperature, pulse, and respiration, which is when proper conditioning, preparation, and a good team on the ground are proven. Provided the horse has recovered sufficiently, the rider will get back on and continue to phase D, the cross-country.

40 THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM 2025

S P E C TAT O R S A F E T Y & COMFORT Eventing is a fun sport for competitors and spectators alike! Particularly on cross-country day, we encourage you to go out on the course to watch. Feel free to move around the grounds throughout the day to see all the obstacles being negotiated. Because of the nature of the event, there are a few considerations to keep in mind for everyone’s safety: • Enjoy walking the course but keep a “heads up” attitude.

• Horses always have the right of way.

• Stay behind any marked barriers or ropes, and cross only where allowed.

• Look both ways and listen for warning whistles before crossing the course.

• Be aware of galloping or loose horses.

• Stay out of pathways and away from obstacles.

• Remember that courses change throughout the day without much warning, so what was safe one minute can be dangerous the next.

• Supervise children at all times, and keep pets on a short leash.

SOUNDNESS The horse’s physical conditioning and soundness is a critical part of eventing competition. The day prior to dressage, a ground jury and the show veterinarian inspect all horses competing at the FEI (international) levels. As the riders jog them in-hand on a firm surface, the judges watch for any signs of lameness. “The jog” is open to spectators, and horses and riders are turned out to the nines with horses braided and coats polished.

42 THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM 2025

A second jog takes place the morning prior to the show jumping phase and follows the same format. This jog is perhaps more critical because it comes after the rigors of crosscountry day. It showcases horses’ fitness, as well as the horsemanship skills of riders and grooms who spend hours the night before icing legs and providing drug-free treatments to help the horse feel good and pain-free in the final phase.

HEIDI DIEGEL - OUR ULTIMATE BRAND AMBASSADOR

H

eidi Diegel became a “brand ambassador” long before social media made an actual profession of that role. Embodying Rebecca Farm’s world-renowned hospitality in every way, every day and in every encounter, Heidi sets the tone in welcoming all to the Farm and enhancing their experience here.

Heidi has been part of Rebecca Farm since the very early days of The Event. In the 20-plus years since, she’s held both volunteer and staff roles. Initially in charge of volunteers for the dressage phases of The Event, in recent years, she has added to her duties the recruitment and coordination of all volunteers.

Beyond that specific job description, Heidi simply does whatever needs to be done – always with a cheerful smile on her face and a genuine desire to help everybody get the most out of their time at The Farm.

“Lovely” is the word Sarah Broussard lands on to describe Heidi’s presence. “She’s always around and willing to help because she wants to see the Farm thrive and for it to have a good reputation.”

She’s the calm core no matter how hectic the moment, adds fellow staff member Kurstie Hammel. “She handles stress so well. She’s one of those people who is very quiet and mellow.”

Hunter/jumper competitor Kate Templeman has seen first-hand the many ways Heidi lifts spirits and diffuses stress. Working the gate, Heidi has a gift with the nervous first-time adult competitor and the upset pony rider alike.

At a benefit show last year, Kate watched Heidi help a newbie amateur. “Heidi took the time to explain things to her without making her feel any less of a competitor. And sometimes a kid comes out of the ring overwhelmed or upset. Heidi always has an encouraging, positive word for them.”

“She is calm, personable, friendly, accommodating, inclusive,” Kate adds. “She’s also busy!” Heidi has four children, three of whom ride, and one of whom, Eliza, was recently married at Rebecca Farm.

48 THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM 2025

Heidi also operates her own tack business, The Saddle Exchange and Huckleberry Halter gift shop in Kalispell. The Saddle Exchange is so generous in its support for The Event and the hunter/jumper and dressage shows at the farm that Sarah describes Heidi’s business as an “unofficial sponsor.”

Along with being a core member of the Rebecca Farm team, Heidi contributes to the entire Western Montana equestrian scene. She’s active with the Montana Hunter Jumper Association, 4H and Pony Club.

Her skills and experience may shine brightest during The Event. “She is one of our little saviors during The Event,” Kurstie notes. When last minute cross-country-related volunteer needs arise, Heidi is Kurstie’s first call. “She can somehow always find people who can do whatever is needed in that moment.”

“She’s just an amazing lady!” Kurstie concludes.

Heidi’s helpful instincts go beyond assigned tasks.

Kurstie recalls sitting in her mule one busy show day, making volunteer arrangements on her phone, when Heidi came by and grabbed the trash bags sitting in the back of the cart. Recognizing the needs of others and helping without being asked characterize Heidi’s generous nature. That, coupled with her many years of experience, makes Heidi the gold standard in Rebecca Farm brand ambassadors.
