TOANO, Va. – April 16, 2021 – ShowAssist, the mobile app for on-demand hiring of short-term support staff at horse shows, announces its partnership with Blenheim EquiSports. The ShowAssist app connects owners, riders and trainers to experienced grooms and other support staff at US Equestrian and Equestrian Canada-rated shows.
Blenheim EquiSports is a world-class equestrian event management company based in San Juan Capistrano, California, that produces horse shows in San Juan Capistrano and Las Vegas, Nevada.
"We are honored to partner with Blenheim EquiSports and thankful for their support of our mission to help people in our industry get back to work," said ShowAssist co-founder Deidre McAuley-Hayes.
"Blenheim offers a top-of-the-line venue in California and a competitor-favorite Las Vegas destination venue," added co-founder Malachi Hinton. "They are known for their excellence, hospitality and wonderful hunter, jumper and equitation series for all levels of riders and horses which makes it a much-anticipated show circuit. We look forward to awarding well-deserving grooms and other support staff the ShowAssist Horse Show Hero Award at several of their shows."
During the 2021 season, ShowAssist will proudly present the Horse Show Hero Award at three of Blenheim EquiSports’ events. The ShowAssist Horse Show Hero Award honors the groom, braider, stall cleaner, body clipper or other support staff at the show who work tirelessly to ensure the horses they look after are given the best possible care. The Horse Show Hero will be awarded a cash prize and gifts. Equestrians are encouraged to nominate their Horse Show Hero during the competitions.

In particular, we are looking forward to presenting the ShowAssist Horse Show Hero award several times this year to those behind the scenes worker-bees who make it all happen."
