The River Ridge Charity Horse Show, hosted April 26-29 at the Ohio Exposition Center in Columbis, Ohio, is thrilled to announce changes for 2017. A three-judge panel has been selected, and the judges will be: Nancy Becker, Matthew Roberts and Lisa Waller. 

River Ridge offers a comprehensive class schedule for Saddlebreds, Morgans, Hackneys, Friesians, Parade, an open division, and a full line of equitation classes. 

The prize list and additional information is available at www.riverridgehs.org and www.horseshowsonline.com. Online entries will be accepted through www.horseshowsonline.com starting March 19. This will be a time saving process that many shows are adding as a benefit. 

River Ridge has always been known as the exhibitor's show. River Ridge will be providing extensive hospitality, inluding a Friday night Exhibitor's party, generously sponsored by Helen Rich. Steve Demjen will once again have his popular Cornhole Tournament. In addition, www.seehorsevideo.com will be providing a free webcast of the show, and Kuhlwein Services will provide pre-bedding and stall mats upon request. 

As an incentive to trainers, a friend of the show is offering two cash drawings on Saturday night. Drawn at random, any trainer bringing and showing 10 or more horses will be eligible for a $300 cash drawing. In addition to this, any trainer bringing and showing one to nine horses will be eligivle for a $200 cash drawing. Finally, the trainer that has the longest mileage that shows at River Ridge will recieve a $100 gas card.

River Ridge will be sponsoring the Central Ohio Diabetes Women's Board, which sponsors Camp Hamwi. Camp Hamwi is an exceptional summer camp for juveniles who live with diabetes.
