Join us in the Olympic Stadium (and other rings, too!) for the 2020 Fox Cherry Blossom Classics, at the Georgia International Horse Park in March! The Horse Park’s famous Cherry Blossom Festival will be held March 21 & 22. The cherry blossom itself is a native symbol of beauty in Japan. Their beautiful pink blossoms also herald the much anticipated arrival of springtime in Georgia! Delicious food, delightful music and arts & crafts will all be available on the plaza above the showgrounds during our March USEF show. Try to make time to check it out! March 14 & 15 will be the 1st show of the 6 weekend, 2020 H. J. Fox Signature Series. These shows are sanctioned by GHJA (local), Jockey Club TIP, and H. J. Fox. 5 full rings of competition will take place both Saturday and Sunday, ranging from Leadline to 1.20m Jumpers! Vendors & concessions will be on site – it will be SO MUCH FUN!!! The March 20-22 Southern Fox Cherry Blossom USEF Classic offers a broad range of hunter, jumper, & eq classes, including National Medals, & a $1500 USHJA National Hunter Derby! $4,999 in prize money is also available in the jumper ring alone! It begins on Friday, & concludes on Sunday, with Hunter Breeding classes on Friday afternoon. For those showing both weekends, a $25 stall discount for the USEF show will be applied. (This can also be a great time saver and cost saver as far as setup & shavings go!) Both shows are open for free online entries at www.horseshowsonline.com. Please check out the H. J.
