This is a three-phase carriage driving competition, featuring dressage (Thursday/Friday), cross-country (Saturday), and cones (Sunday). The show includes both horses and ponies, driven as singles and pairs, at the training, preliminary, intermediate, and FEI levels. Competitors will include some of the top carriage drivers in the U.S. This year, we are hosting the USEF Advanced Pony Combined Driving National Championship and the ADS North American Intermediate Combined Driving Championship.
Spectators are welcome free of charge. Tailgating spots are available on Saturday. This event benefits the Aiken Land Conservancy, which is sponsoring an elegant brunch during the cones competition on Sunday.
