Horse exhibition to benefit Panthertown
A horse exhibition hosted by Friends of Panthertown from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, June 28, will raise money for conservation and trail maintenance in Panthertown Valley, a national forest recreation area near Cashiers.
The day begins with a 10 a.m. guided hike to Maidenhair Falls in the Bald Rock area. It’s a strenuous but beautiful trail, and group size is limited, so those wanting to join should arrive early to check in. Live music, demonstrations and children’s activities will continue through noon, and a silent auction in the barn will go from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The main event will begin at noon and run through 1:30 p.m., when an exhibition at Bald Rock Equestrian Arena will showcase more than a dozen different breeds. Guests will be able to meet the horses up close in the half hour before and after the exhibition.
$10 donation per vehicle. No dogs. Lunch available for purchase. 828.269.4453, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or www.panthertown.org.
