Midwest Charity Horse Show Adds Classes To Schedule



Midwest Charity, scheduled for June 10-14, 2014, at the Illinois State Fairgrounds, with daily show times of 11 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. has added three classes to the regular schedule because of their popularity last year.

Classes include class 55, Five Gaited, Amateur Masters, Rider 50 & Over; class 30, ASB Five Gaited Show Pleasure, Masters, Rider 50 & Over; and class 156 ASB Five Gaited Show Pleasure, Masters, Rider 50 & Over Championship. The Masters Five Gaited Show Pleasure and Championship were two of the biggest and most exciting classes of the show.

Fast approaching is Midwest’s entry deadline of May 1, just 12 days away. As always post entries are accepted. The 2014 prize list is available on our website at www.midwestcharity.com.

Midwest’s distinguished panel of judges includes: Paul Boone, Concord, NC; Gene van der Walt, Shelbyville, KY; and Lisa Waller, Heiskell, TN.

As tradition dictates, the Midwest Charity Horse Show will delight and entertain exhibitors with their legendary hospitality with nightly parties, Tuesday-Friday nights, after the last class in barn 25Q, the famous “Party Barn.”
