80th Horse Show Celebration

Entertainment

In addition to our traditional Country Fair activities, we have added a few special events to mark the Horse Show’s 80th Edition.

Kimberton Hunt Parade of Hounds

The Kimberton Hunt Club was founded in 1870 making it one of the oldest hunts in the United States.  Kimberton uses Penn-MaryDel foxhounds who are noted for their voices and ability to work in poor scenting conditions.

In the Rosato Ring at 3:00 pm

Muddy Creek Vaulters

Equestrian vaulting is a combination of dance and gymnastics on the back of a moving horse.  Vaulters perform while the horse is being lounged at the walk, trot or canter. Vaulters perform as individuals, pairs and teams. The Muddy Creek Vaulters perform in the Rosato Oval on Sunday at 3:30 pm.
