 The location for the Equestrian competition came about when the  producers advertised on Craigslist for an equestrian. A woman by the  name of Fran Wilkinson responded who not only had a daughter who was  a champion rider, but also had connections to Indian Hill Farm and  secured the riding facility. In an interesting twist of fate, the  husband of the woman who owns the farm was previously married to the  producers first figure skating coach.
