THE WALNUT HILL CARRIAGE DRIVING COMPETITION

If you are not familiar with carriage driving, this will give you a great background on Pleasure Carriage Driving. One of the most competitive and prestigious carriage driving shows in North America was the Walnut Hill event. Carriage pleasure driving is about mirroring carriage driving at the end of the 1800's into the early 1900's, when there was a social correctness on everything from the driver's attire, to the horse, harness and carriage. Even the time of day dictated what the driver wore to drive a carriage. There were carriages for women, carriages for men and carriages for a coachman and grooms. Carriages were as diverse in use and function, as automobiles are today. We think you will enjoy this glimpse into one of the most prestigious events in carriage driving ever held.

    😅 2:38 What a memory! That’s is me with my mare Brith & her 8 week old filly Asta at our first Walnut Hill! Seeing the late Mr. Gene Bauer & his whip Susan Engleking Keating driving his beautiful Norwegian Fjords, which is where all my Fjords came, brought tears to my eyes. The late Bill Remley, whom I had known as my history teacher in 7th grade, hosted this wonderful show for almost 40 years & we were blessed to have had it so close to home.

    Brings a tear to my eye that I never made it to this show. Glad that it lasted as long as it did though.
