Almost Devon Time



For those of you who have been on the grounds recently, you can see the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair coming to life before your very eyes! It has been an amazing few weeks and I just wanted to update you on our strong progress as we prepare for the Show, kicking off Thursday May 21.
 
First, the grounds are beginning to look superb - from the Dixon Oval to the Gold Ring and all through the Country Fair. The all-new Devon Club will go up early next week -- we have been hard at work getting the place prepped and ready to go. As well, we're quite proud of our new offices so make sure to stop in and say hello to our team.
 
Our vendors are arriving at the Country Fair each day and we have put a beautiful new home in place for several of our equestrian vendors. Volunteer shifts are getting filled and the best is yet to come with our much-anticipated exhibits and 10 incredible coaching entries as well.
 
We anticipate a terrific Show and we plan to make a major announcement with respect to the future as we build a long-term plan to beautify and update our wonderful facilities for the next 119 years.
 
Our future looks quite bright and I will keep you abreast of all the Devon happenings.
 
The Tradition Continues, in Devon!
