American Endurance Ride Conference Signs On as Title Sponsor for Horses in the Morning ‘Endurance Day’ Radio Show

AUBURN, California – July 13, 2015 – The American Endurance Ride Conference (AERC) has signed an agreement to become the Title Sponsor of the Horse Radio Network’s popular monthly Horses in the Morning “Endurance Day” radio show that airs online from 9:00-10:30 a.m. EDT on the second Tuesday of each month. The ‘Endurance Day’ show is hosted by accomplished endurance rider and AERC member, Karen Chaton, and is among the most popular on Horses in the Morning, drawing tens of thousands of listeners for each episode.

This month’s show, which airs on Tuesday, July 14, will focus on the iconic 100-mile, one-day Western States Trail Ride (commonly known as the Tevis Cup) which begins on August 1 at 5:15 a.m. and features 200 riders representing 24 U.S. states and 10 countries. Now in its 60th year, the Tevis Cup is a highlight of the endurance ride calendar and is considered by many to be the pinnacle of achievement in endurance riding here in the United States.

“Sponsoring a quality radio program like this is a natural fit for the AERC,” said Lisa Schneider, AERC vice president. “We’re looking forward to using our time on the show for sharing important AERC news and information, and for collaborating with host Karen Chaton on various episode topics that are sure to be of interest to listeners.”
