{The Hampton Classic 2013}
I am happy to report that The Hampton Classic Horse Show is now less than one week away (August 24 – 31, 2014). The event blends my two favorite things – horses and a day out East.
The Classic is not solely for equine enthusiasts. There is plenty of shopping, dining and browsing if the four-legged competitors do not pique your interest. Growing up, I would go out to the Classic when I had friends competing, but since graduating from college and moving back to Long Island, I have made planning a day at the show an end-of-summer tradition.
This year I am even more excited about the show, since my thyroid incision has healed and I can ditch the scarf and not worry about the sun. I have already begun scoping out which events I want to see (the jumper and Grand Prix rings are always a crowd pleaser), taking note of how many days I plan to make the hour-plus drive out to the show grounds in Bridgehampton, and of course, leaving time for a quick jaunt to the wonderful Southampton – a great place to shop if you ask me, and a short drive from the horse show.
Stay tuned as I finalize my plans for The Hampton Classic Horse Show 2014!
it sounds absolutely fantastic vanessa!
