We are delighted to name our charitable beneficiary this year, Aiken Technical College Foundation, specifically in support of the college's equine technician certification program.
Be on the lookout for Aiken Tech students and members of the college's staff volunteering throughout the two weeks of shows. While we raise funds for their program, they are providing us with valuable help through volunteering in different areas of the show. Including morning coffee and muffins in the barns, the VIP/Sponsorship Tent, and Hospitality Tent, and more. We are grateful for their help during the Aiken Charity Horse Shows, and we are humbled to be able to provide guidance while partnering with their educators to develop the curriculum for a meaningful equestrian program to help grow a knowledgeable workforce to the expanding equestrian community in and around Aiken.
