Essex Horse Trials & Peter Chesson Memorial Car Show

The Essex Horse Trials is proud to support the Greater Newark LifeCamp through a country weekend of equestrian competition, shopping, fine cars, and great food. This year’s event was held on June 3rd and June 4th at the iconic United States Equestrian Foundation at Gladstone and the beautiful Moorland Farm where the Far Hills Race Meeting runs every October. Many local horses and riders competed over the course of the weekend in an “equestrian triathlon” known as eventing. Eventing combines the elegance of dressage, the thrill of cross-country, and the precision of show jumping at various levels. The Horse Trials were delighted to welcome thousands of spectators and hundreds of competitors as well as many LifeCamp families to a weekend of exciting activities!
