Showing: 
Chatham Hall riders have many opportunities to compete.

Chatham Hall riders are competitive in the Junior Hunter, Children’s Hunter, Children’s Jumper, and Equitation classes, winning classes at shows such as House Mountain, Duke Children’s Benefit, Reeve Irvine Benefit, Gulf Coast Winter Classics, HITS Ocala, HITS Culpeper, and Atlanta Spring Classic. Chatham Hall riders finished 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the 2005 SWVHJA Hunt Seat Medal Finals. Chatham Hall also offers a program in which current saddle seat riders can continue their instruction on currently competitive show horses for physical education credit. This program takes place less than a mile off campus at Longacre Stables. Instructed by Margaret Gardiner, the students compete successfully at all levels, from tournaments to the World Championships at Louisville.
