On a Thursday morning, one week prior to the annual world-class equestrian triathlon, the seeming repose of the 640-acre private estate in West Kalispell masked an enormous effort by hundreds of employees and volunteers to pull off the only HSBC/Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) World Cup Qualifier in the nation. The Event requires a crew of roughly 115 staff and 400 volunteers to organize, judge, coordinate, announce, score, market, design, video, cater, manage, and decorate.
Entries from Texas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Canada, Washington, Montana, Massachusetts, South Africa and Sweden.
