| Party
for Equestrian Aids Foundation at Hard Rock Cafe
By photos and text by Charlene Strickland Las Vegas, April 22, 2005.
The party was sponsored by Karin Reid Offield, of Offield Farms, and Monarch International's Show Circuit Magazine. Offield said, “The wonderful thing about the Equestrian AIDS Foundation is that we are taking a real stand to help people—to help them with their day-to-day lives.”
Equestrian celebrities attending included Scot Evans, and Georgia Bloomberg. From the dressage discipline, Anky Van Grunsven and Sjeff NAME, USDF President Sam Barish, and FEI “O” judge Axel Steiner joined the party. Two U.S. Olympic riders joined Dover: George Morris and Chris Kappler. Dover invited celebrity pals to the evening. Some of the partygoers in the audience were Steven Speilberg and wife Kate Capshaw, Kelly Klein, Tippi Hedren, comedian Suzanne Whang, and Zachary Levi from “Less than Perfect.” |
