Tempel Farms chosen as Chicago 2016 Olympic Equestrian Site!

Tempel Smith's grandson, Laurens Leffingwell Jr., said his family recently offered the 4,000-acre site for Olympic use. Tempel Farms previously has hosted the North American Young Rider Championships and the United States Dressage Federation Young Rider Clinic Series.
"My grandfather would have been very excited," Leffingwell said. "He was such an American, and this is something he would have been ecstatic about. We hope by offering our site to the 2016 Olympic committee it will help bring the Olympics to Chicago."
