The Atlanta Fall Classic is set to kick off November 6 through the 17, and the Classic Company is pleased to announce that the prize list is on line at classiccompany.com!
Held at the Georgia International Horse Park, home to the 1996 Olympics, riders have the opportunity to compete in the Olympic arena and ride for some of the top prize money offered this fall. With more than 300,000 in prize money offered, world-class stabling and arenas, top show management staff and a division for everyone in your barn, there is no better place to be in November. From the jumper ring to the short stirrup arena, each competition ring is highly decorated and staffed with top-notch, friendly professional show staff. “We are looking forward to seeing familiar faces and welcoming new ones!” said Bob Bell, President of Classic Company.
New this year!
Classic Company is proud to announce that Bohicket Marina and Yacht Club is sponsoring the $1,500 Celebration of Small Hunters at this year’s Atlanta Fall Classic set to debut during Week 1. Open to horses larger than 14.2 hands and not exceeding 15.2 ½ hands, the division is looking to be a new favorite at the horse show. “What this is, it’s a new USEF C rated division,” said Bob Bell, President of Classic Company. “This is a great opportunity for our competitors to showcase their small hunters on an equal playing field and we’re delighted to be able to offer it,” he added.
Bohicket Marina and Yacht Club is located just a few short miles from Mullet Hall Equestrian Center, home to the Charleston Summer Classics each July. Riders, their families, and friends enjoy chartering, renting and docking their own boats at Bohicket Marina each year. For those traveling south this winter, the Marina is open! A full service marina with a competitively priced fuel dock, Bohicket Marina and Yacht Club provides discounts to Boat US members. Bohicket Marina offers a 200 slip marina and can accommodate boats up to 150′. As a matter of fact, Tiger Woods’ private boat Privacy was recently docked there.
