Partner with Border Run

Connect your business with the people who ride, show, shop, travel, build, buy and support our Midwest horse community.

​

You don’t have to be a horse business to belong here.

Border Run connects businesses with a grassroots community of exhibitors, families, horse show organizations and equine enthusiasts throughout Wisconsin and Illinois.

​

Our partnerships help us strengthen the open-show community while giving our partners meaningful opportunities to be seen throughout the year.

Not a Horse Business? Perfect!

Our exhibitors aren't only horse owners. They're homeowners, parents, professionals, travelers and consumers.

​

From automotive and financial services to restaurants, retail, home improvement and professional services, there are plenty of ways for businesses outside the equine industry to connect with the Border Run community.

Have Something Else in Mind?

Partnerships don't have to begin with a check. Product donations, exhibitor giveaways, award contributions and creative collaborations are welcome, too.

​

Have an idea? We'd love to hear it.
