Callie Schott Back in Winning Form During Traverse City CSIO3*
Callie Schott (USA) returned to international competition in winning fashion with Garant on Saturday in the $117,000 CSIO3* Grand Prix during Nations Cup week at Traverse City Horse Shows’ Great Lakes Equestrian Festival (GLEF), presented by B&D Builders.
The 11th season of GLEF features six weeks of FEI competition running through August 10, showcasing an FEI Nations Cup CSIO3*, the FEI North American Youth Championships, and the return of Major League Show Jumping CSI5* competition to Traverse City. Highlights also include the $100,000 USHJA World Championship Hunter Rider Central Spectacular and weekly qualifiers for the all-new $150,000 Traverse City Equitation Championships debuting in September.
Schott was sidelined for nearly seven months after an injury and subsequent shoulder surgery kept her from riding. Nations Cup week in Traverse City—the site of her and Garant’s first five-star grand prix victory in 2022—marked her return to international competition.
“This is great for our whole team because we’ve come off quite a break,” said Schott. “Garant loves it here—I think he feels at home—and this is our first FEI grand prix since December. It was great for the morale of the whole team to have this win.”
