Pack a chair, a picnic lunch and a sunhat, and prepare to spend a relaxing day in the beautiful countryside. Fair Hill International will host USEA Recognized Horse Trials for Beginner Novice, Novice, Training, Preliminary, and Intermediate categories on Saturday August 7 and Sunday August 8. New to equestrian sports? The Fair Hill International Horse Trials are the perfect introduction to eventing, which can best be described as an equestrian triathlon and includes three distinct phases of competition: dressage, cross-country, and show jumping. Keep your eyes peeled, as you may also see some members of the US Olympic team! The event is free and open to the public, with ample free parking. Dressage starts at 8 am. Show Jumping & Cross Country begin at 10 am. All events end at 4 pm. The Horse Trials will be held near the Cecil County Fair Grounds located on Rt. 273 between Rt. 213 & Gallaher Rd. (GPS: 4640 Telegraph Rd, Elkton, MD 21921). CDC Covid-19 protocols are in place for all spectators. All dogs must be on a lead. This is a rain or shine event.
