Exhibitors,
I want to personally invite you to attend and
show at the 67th year of the Germantown
Charity Horse Show. The show dates are June
2 through June 6. 2015. We are real proud of
the fact that we are now one of 20 horse shows
that have been awarded the United States
Equestrian Federation's Heritage Competition.
Hope all of you can attend the Exhibitor Party,
donuts and coffee every morning, wine and
cheese socials in the afternoon, ice cream
socials in the afternoon and the welcome
wagon every day with iced tea and water.
We are always trying to make the Germantown
Charity Horse Show one of the most exhibitor
friendly shows you will attend all year. We
have just completed two new concrete pads at
the wash racks. We will have a new exhibitor
office completed in the next two months that
will make everyone proud. Do not forget to
visit our Exhibitor Lounge.
I am looking forward to seeing our old
exhibitors and meeting the new ones. If I can
be of any help to you before, during or after the
show please give me a call.
Sincerely,
Jimmy Chancellor
GCHS President
