HorseGrooms and Desert International Horse Park join forces, an exciting step for the overall betterment and appreciation of grooms. HorseGrooms’ mission to support, educate and celebrate grooms, while preserving the art of horsemanship, perfectly complements DIHP’s dedication to providing an exciting and welcoming environment for its equine caregivers.
A Brighter Focus On The Groom Experience
DIHP, located in Thermal, California, is one of North America’s largest equestrian facilities. From October through March, it transforms into the place to be on the U.S. West Coast for FEI show jumping, USEF-premier-rated horse shows and CDI dressage events.
With its mission to surpass its already world-class competition standard, DIHP is casting a brighter focus on the groom experience. By partnering with HorseGrooms, DIHP is helping to foster community, health and education among grooms.
Support and Celebrate Hardworking Grooms
Steve Hankin, president and CEO of DIHP, shares HorseGrooms’ excitement. “We are excited to support what HorseGrooms is doing to improve the experience for grooms both at and beyond our park. In collaboration with HorseGrooms, we look forward to continuing to support and celebrate the hardworking grooms who call the desert home in the winter.”
A Community Where Grooms Can Support and Uplift Each Other
“We are thrilled to partner with DIHP to enhance the groom experience at their events. It’s exciting to see DIHP acknowledging and valuing grooms as essential stakeholders in the industry,” says HorseGrooms’ founder, Dinette Neuteboom. “HorseGrooms was always envisioned as more than just an online resource. We aim to build a genuine community where grooms can support and uplift each other. We’re grateful that Desert International Horse Park is not only endorsing our mission but also actively supporting it.”

HorseGrooms is a platform of resources, education, and support for grooms by grooms. This is an online community, hub of resources, and spotlight of industry highlights born out of love for the horse and love for the sport. But our mission goes beyond simply providing resources and creating content.
Our goal is to create a space to keep horsemanship alive; for grooms to support and educate each other; and to help advance the craft of grooming. HorseGrooms is dedicated to ambitious grooms everywhere.
