Be a part of preserving our equestrian heritage while building a strong and vibrant future. By making a tax-deductible donation to the Carolina Horse Park, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, you directly support land preservation, equine safety, education, and the economic growth of our community.
But it doesn’t end there, our plans involve expanding the acreage, collaborating with neighboring nature conversatories, exploring a conservation easement, increasing our eco-tourism
By supporting the CHP Foundation, you are not simply sponsoring a competitive sports facility; you are directly backing the preservation of the rare ecosystem, supporting active environmental education, and helping us meet your corporate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) requirements.

Traditional sports or event marketing relies on fleeting digital CPM impressions and distant banners hung inside massive stadiums, often with anonymous fans and difficult to measure brand conversion value. The Carolina Horse Park offers something entirely unique: Multi-Day Experiential Immersion that we help you develop with the support of our brand ambassadors. Every corporate sponsorship is bespoke and tailored to ensure ROI is measured, delivered and nurtured. Collaborating with your brand or marketing teams, we allow our sponsors to utilize the expansive space that our venue offers and focus on high-level networking and conversion centric discussions.

Partnering with the Carolina Horse Park Foundation places your brand at the center of a uniquely layered, highly engaged regional and national demographic. We don’t just offer standard advertising impressions—we provide direct access to an audience that stays on-site for days, not hours.
The Power of High Dwell-Time: Unlike a standard three-hour football or baseball game, our competitors, trainers, spectators, and corporate guests live on-site for 3 to 5 days per event. Your brand isn’t just seen in passing—it is integrated into the daily lifestyle experience, maximizing your capture rate and creating high-value windows for networking, brand conversion, and personal client discussions.
The Premier Competitor Field: Our venue attracts elite and professional athletes alongside dedicated and passionate regional competitors. This specialized sporting demographic represents a hard-to-reach concentration of wealth and influence; the average household income of national equestrian competitors often exceeds $500,000. These participants are high-value consumers, business owners, agricultural landowners, and corporate decision-makers.
The Regional Consumer Footprint: Beyond our competitive fields, our 42 weeks of annual events draw 25,000 unique visitors from the affluent Sandhills region, including Southern Pines, Pinehurst, and our growing local communities in Hoke and Moore counties. This includes a highly loyal military audience from neighboring Fort Liberty, offering a powerful platform for regional community alignment.
Equestrian Sport at Every Level: While we anchor the start of the international Olympic-level calendar, our mission is deeply rooted in community access and nurturing entry level riders. Our events bring together thousands of families, local spectators, grassroots youth riders, and dedicated volunteers, giving your brand a rare opportunity to engage with a broad, diverse, and socioeconomically vibrant outdoor lifestyle market.
True 1-on-1 Brand Activations: Our 315-acre footprint provides an interactive landscape that traditional convention centers or sports arenas cannot match. From automotive and off-road test drives and high-end heavy equipment demonstrations on our open fields to exclusive product sampling within our VIP pavilions, your brand can build deep, organic relationships in a relaxed leisure environment all year round.
