Gigi Stetler Comes Out on Top in USEF Case against Equestrian Show Holdings, LLC Gigi Stetler, owner of RV Sales of Broward, recently prevailed in her protest against Equestrian Show Holdings LLC, over trespassing charges alleged to have occurred at the 2010 FTI Winter Equestrian Festival. Stetler and RV Sales of Broward have been a longtime sponsor at the Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington, FL, and have had a standing sponsorship contract since 1992. In 2010, however, the Winter Equestrian Festival chose not to renew Stetler’s sponsorship contract after securing her confidential client list under the ruse they were getting in line to prepare files for the 2010 show year. http://gigistetler.wordpress.com/2010/05/21/gigi-stetler-comes-out-on-top-in-usef-case-against-equestrian-show-holdings-llc/ Spindletop Hall and RV Sales of Broward Join Forces to Offer Luxury Accommodations during the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games Spindletop Hall and RV Sales of Broward are pleased to announce that they will be joining forces to offer a limited number of exclusive, luxury RV accommodations during the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games (WEG).

Prior to getting into the RV business I was working in hotel and property management and wasrenovating a run-down apartment building. I made a deal with a guy who was living in the boiler room to let him live in anapartment in exchange for painting. One day he went a little crazy and started throwing beer bottles from the roof. I called911, but he burst in and stabbed me 21 times and tried to strangle me with an air conditioner cord while I was on the linewith the police. I fought back and finally played dead, doing whatever I had to do to stay alive until the police got there. Themoral to the story—to all of my stories—is that you just can’t give up.” (excerpt from Ladies Who Launch June 17th 2008)http://www.ladieswholaunch.com/magazine/1168/1167 Gigi Stetler's Favorite Things By Amy S.

"But I saw there was definitely a business there." That was in1986. Today, Stetler, 47, owns the 27-employee RV Sales of Broward in Fort Lauderdale and rings $18.3 million in salesannually. The avid equestrienne lives in an RV most weekends, when she competes in horse shows. "I travel in a FleetwoodRevolution," she says. "But sometimes I sell it when I'm on the road. So I have to find other accommodations, fast." http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/08_70/s0810068823052.htm?chan=magazine+channel_departments Do You Know About Gigi Stetler?
