An equine-centric digital festival unlike any other, last year, Horse Week brought together more than 30 equine associations and companies for one singular cause: the celebration of the horse.

"The entire staff and combat wounded veterans from the Semper Fi & America's Fund's Jinx McCain Horsemanship Program give our heartiest 'thank you' for the incredible Equine Network film of our annual Double Rafter Cattle Drive," said John Mayer, senior director, SFFAP & Foreman, JMHP Semper Fi & America's Fund. "Your production and camera team were simply amazing, producing a film that captured the challenges of our veterans and the restorative power a good horse, dedicated teammates and a rigorous mission has on their wellness."
