WEVA and The Horse Announce Media Partnership
Lexington, Ky. - September 14, 2009- An
exciting education and outreach partnership has been formed between The Horse
and the World Equine Veterinary Association (WEVA). The two groups will work
together to educate veterinarians and other industry professionals about the
health, care, management, and welfare of equids around the world and bring
information from those groups to veterinarians, vet techs, horse owners, and
managers.
"WEVA is very excited to have added
The Horse magazine as a Media Partner and are excited to be working with
them," said WEVA President Gary Norwood, DVM, of Texas. "Some exciting new
services will be available to all member associations and their members (see a
list of Member Associations at www.wevaonline.org),
including a one-year subscription to a digital version of The Horse
magazine."
"The Horse is proud to become part
of the outreach efforts of this world-wide veterinary organization," said
Kimberly S. Brown, Publisher/Editor of The Horse brand of multimedia
information sources. "WEVA is working to bring the world's equine veterinarians
together to help all veterinarians better serve the equids who need a healing
touch and to educate owners so they can keep their animals healthy."
WEVA will partner with The Horse to
promote its programs and outreach through The Horse magazine and TheHorse.com.
Every WEVA Member Association will be eligible to have its individual
veterinarian members receive a one-year subscription to The Horse
digital edition so they can access the publication's up-to-date information in
the most timely manner no matter where they live.
The Horse will also provide
editorial space in each issue of the magazine for a WEVA message either of
upcoming educational events or articles about past presentations and events.
The publication and Web site also will work with individual veterinary
associations to bring their information and stories to the horse owners of the
world and their veterinary colleagues.
