Area 1 Teams Dominate the SmartPak ATC Scavenger Hunt

September 22, 2021

 

The USEA Adult Team Championships (ATC) were a huge success this year, garnering a record-breaking 58 ATC teams at the USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds. The ATC provides USEA Adult Rider program members with the chance to compete as a team and represent their Area in a friendly and fun environment at the Beginner Novice, Novice, Training, and Preliminary levels.

For the 2021 ATC at AEC, SmartPak challenged ATC teams to an additional quest- a photo scavenger hunt across the iconic Kentucky Horse Park! To participate in this year’s SmartPak Scavenger Hunt, ATC teams were asked to take photos at these designated locations: at the Rolex Stadium, the Head of the Lake, the Bruce Davidson statue, the Thursday night USEA Adult Riders party, and with a SmartPak sign anywhere on grounds. Bonus points if they could find SmartPak’s rider representative Allison Springer and take a photo with her.

SmartPak staff and rider representative Allison Springer co-judged the contest by awarding the champion prizes to the team who submitted the most creative and fun photos. After many great submissions, SmartPak chose Area 1’s Novice ATC team, “Uncalled 4” as this year’s SmartPak ATC Scavenger Hunt Champions, who submitted a “where’s waldo” themed photo submission.

“How many Waldos can you find? We may be called Uncalled 4, but we are a vibrant Area 1 Novice team of 3 and we added our own spin to the #SmartPakATCScavengerHunt by turning the tables and making it a scavenger hunt to find all the waldos in the pictures,” explained the Uncalled 4 team. “We even had time to party with a fellow Area 1 Team (5 O’Clock Somewhere) at the Adult Rider party and we also got to meet Allison Springer!” The Uncalled 4 Team was comprised of Alyssa Birt, Jannah Matzan, and Emily Scott.

Each member of the winning team will receive large prize packs from SmartPak filled with all of your favorite equestrian essentials and will be placed in the mail to the winning team riders this week. Additionally, SmartPak is sending gift certificates to three other teams who put in a great effort with their submissions. Area 1 Training team (Five O’Clock Somewhere) was a finalist and each member will recieve a $50 SmartPak gift card!  The team was comprised of Brinn Dimler, Lisa Niccolai, Ali Fisher and Zina Baltopoulos!

The USEA would like to thank SmartPak for their support of the AEC, the ATC, and for sponsoring this fun ATC scavenger hunt at the AEC!

Great job Area 1!
