The Aiken Horse Park Foundation is proud to partner with Green Is The New Blue in our efforts to create a more sustainable sport! Please join us for both weeks of October at Bruce’s Field in our green practices:
  • Plastic-less ingates

We all need to work together, because there is no Planet B!
Every event that takes place at Bruce’s Field promotes a charitable partner. This year during October at Bruce’s Field, we have two very deserving causes we are working to raise awareness for and hope our guests will participate.
