The Charleston Summer Classic just wrapped up its first week at Mullet Hall Equestrian Center and will start its final week tomorrow as the Great Magnolia Show Jumping Tour heads into the final week!

"I met many people here who have never shown with us at the Charleston Summer Classic," commented Bob Bell, President of the Classic Company. "They all said it was the best horse show they have ever gone to and already booked their condos for two weeks next summer," he said.

"That makes us so happy to know that after 24 years, the Classic Company's flagship horse show continues its tradition of offering the best customer service and show jumping competitions in the most desirable location here in Johns Island.Riders and their families make it a tradition to join us each summer and be a part of the showcation offered by the Charleston Summer Classic."
