This special weekend marks our 7th year of Carriage Driving competition at Morven Park. This year, we’re excited to expand the schedule to three full days of events, including the return of the Arena Driving Trial! It is our pleasure to join with the James River Driving Association and Toad Hollow Farm to present the Old Dominion ADT Challenge, and with the Carolina Classic in the Pines to offer the High Point Challenge Trophy. As you traverse the Park during the competition, you will notice that improvements to the Equestrian Center have continued, including revitalization of the indoor arena, enhancement of the race course in preparation for the return of Steeplechase racing, and the installation of numerous shade trees following a successful AnniversaTree campaign. Thank you to everyone from the equestrian community who has supported our efforts thus far! If you are looking for something fun and unique to do later this summer, be sure to join us for our Saturday evening Arena Polo series that begins July 6th. Enjoy the great view and sense of community on the hillside above the arena, host your own private party with a tailgate spot, or reserve a VIP railside box for your special guests.
