DIXIE CUP SPRING CLASSIC ADDS PINK RIBBON CLASS
The Dixie Cup Spring Classic has announced that by request they have added the UPHA Pink Ribbon Class.
It will be class # 58, the Ladies Five Gaited Class to be held on Friday Morning. Exhibitors are asked to Wear Pink on Friday. As a special incentive, a Special Presentation will be made to the exhibitor who brings in the most sponsorships for this class.  Every exhibitor at the show will be given a Pink Ribbon Lapel Pin to wear while showing at the Dixie Cup. We hope these pins will be worn through out the year to help raise the level of awareness about the need to find a cure for this disease.
Please show your support and download a pink ribbon class sponsorship form.
In other news, ASB Park Pleasure - Junior Horse has been added on Thursday Morning.

IMPORTANT CHANGES AT THE GA INTERNATIONAL HORSE PARK

The Dixie Cup Spring Classic and Southeastern Charity Horse Shows are proud to announce important changes at the GA International Horse Park, Conyers, GA, home of both of these USEF “A” Rated Horse Shows. 

As a result of requests from horse show exhibitors, all of the stalls in the original five barns have been updated with the installation of wall to wall STALL MATS. At this year’s shows, the new mats are being met with rave reviews.

The Park has also built a new FARRIER AND VETERINARIAN Services Building to add to the safety and comfort of the horses at the Park. This structure is currently being tested and should be ready for the Dixie Cup.

A very popular facility, The Park was one of the big facilities featured in a recent article in the USEF EQUESTRIAN Magazine.  In 2007, the Park hosted 246 events. Of those, 63 were equine events.  These events brought nearly three quarters of a million people to the Park and to the Conyers area.
