"...a discounted membership in USEF that would be included
in our AERC dues..."
Are you proposing that I, and all of the other
AERC members, who do not agree with the FEI and USEF, and who have exactly
zero (that is none, no, never, under no circomstances, not in our lifetime)
interest in participating in international competition or any USEF horse
sport, be forced to join the USEF?
If that were to happen I would vote against this by not
joining the AERC. If I still wanted to participate in AERC rides I would
pay the then current "day membership" fee. If membership in the USEF or
any similar body were to be required for participation in amateur endurance
riding in the USA, I would not participate. There is always CTR,
wilderness packing, and just plain self directed trail
riding.
