South Carolina Prepares to Host George H. Morris

Pendleton, SC – November 11, 2014 – Clemson University is preparing to host George H. Morris next week, who will be conducting a clinic at their T. Ed Garrison Livestock Arena. Organized by Sherry Pace, the clinic will be held November 21-23, 2014. The legendary horseman and coach will be instilling the foundations of good horsemanship to eager riders and auditors from South Carolina and surrounding areas.

After retiring as Chef d’Equipe of the United States Show Jumping Team, Morris has set his sights on developing the future of the sport by conducting clinics around the world. Focusing on helping riders develop correct form and function, Morris has often been referred to as the founding father of hunt seat equitation. Second to none, his teachings, technique and style are revered around the world. Over the course of his career, Morris has been highly successful as a rider, coach, clinician, author and judge.

“I am extremely excited to have George come to South Carolina,” said Pace. “This is my eighth year working with him. The knowledge that he brings to our local trainers is immeasurable. Everyone can learn something from him at every level. We’re fortunate to have him in our area and I just can’t say enough about how please I am and how excited everyone is to have him here.”

While spots to participate as a rider in the clinic filled up immediately, auditor positions are still available to gain knowledge from the esteemed Morris through observation. A waiting list is also available for riders should spots open up. Auditor spots are offered for $65 per day and a donation will be made to the Clemson Equestrian team.

The daily clinic schedule will begin with the first group of intermediate riders at 9:00 a.m., followed by advanced-intermediate riders at 11 a.m. The final group of advanced riders will commence at 2:00 p.m.
