2009 New Albany Classic Grand Prix

I had a great time at the 2009 New Albany Classic Grand Prix Invitational. The way some of the riders had those horses jumping you would think they had air jordan's on! It was cool.

The show supports the Columbus Coalition Against Family Violence http://www.ccafv.org/about/index.php

I cannot wait until next years show.

Me, Sen. John Glenn, Jack Kessler, and Tony at the 2009 New Albany Classic Grand Prix.

Jordan Sparks and Mitchell Musso were there, so was Sen. John Glenn, Victorias Secret founder Les Wexner, whose wife Abigail founded the event.

I share a moment with Abigail Wexner, founder of the New Albany Classic Grand Prix

Mayor Bloomberg's daughter was one of the riders. It was a lot of fun and if you can make it to one, you should be there!

Me and rider, Wilhelm Genn.

The event benefits the Coalition Against Domestic Violence.

  Buster - Many thanks to you for your support of the NAC and of the Columbus Coalition Against Family Violence. By simply posting your comments, you send a strong message that family violence is wrong and will not be tolerated. You have moved us one step closer to breaking the cycle of family violence.
  
  With gratitude,

  Karen,
  
  It was truly my pleasure. I had such a great time, but not to take away from your mission. If you have some time, maybe we can do a discussion on my blog here and get some input from other professional athletes regarding the problem with family violence.
  
  I know a lot of athletes are involved in some deep stuff, with all of the pressures on them.
  
  Let me or Tony know.

  Buster - Great idea! I will email Tony to get the ball rolling. When you have a chance, check out Itsabuse.org. With the help of Archie Griffin and Jim Tressel, we have been able to reach many students (including athletes).
  
  I will be in touch very soon.
  
  My best,
  
  Karen
