Horses Benefit Kid Show Jumping Invitational
May 4 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Join us on Kentucky Derby Day Saturday, May 4, for an afternoon of equestrian events to benefit WEYMOUTH EQUESTRIANS, a program that provides young people the opportunity to learn how to ride and care for horses on Weymouth’s historic property.
First, see the Weymouth Equestrians Team Show Jumping Invitational that will take place from 3:00 – 5:00 pm. Each team will comprise two professionals and two amateurs competing on courses laid out on the grounds of Weymouth Center. This is a family friendly event that is spearheaded by Southern Pines’ own Olympic gold medalist and Technical Advisor/Chef d’Equipe for USEF Eventing, Robert Costello.
Then attend the ticketed Kentucky Derby Watch Party at 5:00. Wear your fanciest Derby Day outfits and win prizes for best hat and best dressed. Prizes will also be awarded for your win/place/show Derby picks. Enjoy whiskey, wine, beer, and Mint Julep toasts to the sounds of live music.
The Show Jumping Invitational is free and open to the public. Tickets to the Kentucky Derby Party start at $100.
