Your support sustains our legacy

Be a part of preserving our equestrian heritage while building a strong and vibrant future.

Thank you to our sponsors

Dear Friends of the Carolina Horse Park,

As the Carolina Horse Park enters this special Season of Giving, we are reminded of the extraordinary community that makes this place so much more than a venue — it is a home for equestrian sport, open space preservation, and shared passion.

Over the past year, thanks to your support, the Park has continued to grow and improve in meaningful ways — from footing and facility upgrades to the enhancement of our trails and grounds that benefit both riders and spectators alike. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we rely on the assistance of our community to enhance and grow. Each improvement reflects our collective commitment to preserving the legacy and beauty of the Carolina Horse Park for generations to come. 

This season, we invite you to take your support one step further by becoming a Patron of the Park. Flyers detailing how to join the Patron program have recently been mailed, outlining the many ways your contribution directly supports facility improvements, event sustainability, and year-round maintenance of this remarkable venue. You may view the flyer here: Patrons of the Park, and we invite you to make your donation by clicking here: Donate Now. We thank you for your support of Carolina Horse Park Foundation.

Your generosity is vital. Donations from our Patrons provide the foundation for continuous enhancements — improved arenas, safer stabling, upgraded infrastructure, and the ability to host world-class competitions that draw equestrians and visitors from across the nation. Every contribution, large or small, ensures that the Park remains a place where excellence, tradition, and community thrive together.

We hope you’ll join us in this Season of Giving by becoming a Patron of the Park and helping us carry the Carolina Horse Park forward into an even brighter future.

With heartfelt gratitude and appreciation,

Charles Pinnell
