The list of equestrian stars already signed up to participate includes Steffen Peters, Gina Miles, Courtney King Dye, David and Karen O'Connor, Chester Weber, Monty Roberts, Kate Levy, Pierre St. Jacques, Samantha St. Jacques, Hawley Bennett, Tami Hoag, Kim Gentry, Cathy Wieschhoff, Jeanne Lambrecht, and Lynn Palm. Several other top names are expected to take part and will soon finalize their plans.
Along with the exciting equestrian performances, the Holiday Gala will feature a catered VIP dinner and bar along with a fundraising auction featuring many one-of-a-kind high dollar items. The Jim Brandon Equestrian Center will also host a special shopping village, featuring Wellington's favorite vendors, which is perfect for any last-minute holiday shopping.
