Charity II Horse Show (Summer 4) July 1-5, 2026
2026-07-01 - 2026-07-05 | Tryon International Equestrian Center
The 2025 Charity Show II grant recipients from TR&HC are:

The Tryon Riding & Hunt Club puts on two A-rated horse shows each spring at the Tryon International Equestrian Center that attract 600 competitors from across the United States. These have come to be know locally as Charity I and Charity II.
The Charity I Show, first held in 1926, was designated in 2019 as one of its Heritage Horse Shows by the U.S. Equestrian Federation. This designation “ is reserved for competitions that have been established for a long period of time and have made substantial contribution toward the development and promotion of the sport, both within the broader community, by achieving, maintaining and promoting the equestrian ideals of the sportsmanship and competition.” We are delighted to share this designation with Devon, Blowing Rock Charity Horse Show, Deep Run, Upperville, Washington International, and Pennsylvania National, among others.
Charity II began in 2003. Both shows are open to riders of all ages—both amateur and professional—the divisions include working, handy and green hunters; adult and junior hunters; equitation; pony hunters; and high-performance hunters as well as jumper classes for children and adults.
Each year, the Riding & Hunt Club fulfills the Charity designations by making gifts to local equestrian and community organizations at the Saturday night Grand Prix of each weekend.
The partnership between the TR&HC and Tryon International has allowed the club to continue to grow its A-rated shows while offering the best in competition. The shows also offer the TR&HC the opportunity to welcome trainers and riders to Tryon’s horse-friendly atmosphere that competitors really seem to appreciate.

Congratulations to our 2025 beneficiaries!
