"This is about having a relaxing, fun, and entertaining eventing." said co-organizer Tigger Montague. "Whether you are a spectator, competior, or judge, everyone is here to enjoy the beauty of Dressage and most of all have fun!"

The
concept of the Celebrity Freestlye is to entertain, raise money for
a wonderful cause, and most of all have fun. Over 1000 spectators are
expected for a lovely Virginia summer evening. Spectators will fill
grandstands of the historical Keswick Hunt Club, and dot the lawns with
picnic blankets, surrounding the arena which is known as the oldest
showgrounds in Virginia to watch the most entertaining level of the
Olympic equestrian sport of Dressage; the Freestyle ride to music.
