North Salem, NY — Oct. 1, 2020 — Old Salem Farm Fall Series welcomed competitors back to the facility, many of whom had not competed since March. Without spectators, the show had a different feel but many shared how happy they were to enjoy the beautiful facility and get back to high-quality competition. In ideal New York fall weather, exhibitors were cooperative in complying with USEF and Old Salem Farm protocols and wore masks when not on horseback and visited the facilities' many hand sanitizing and hand washing stations.
"Old Salem Farm thanks it's sponsors for all their support. We are grateful to The Kincade Group who have presented our grand prix events for many years. With thanks to the vendors, owners, professionals, all the exhibitors and support staff for graciously following our protocols," said Scott Hakim, president of Old Salem Farm. "The Fall Series had a wonderful energy and its success is thanks to you all."
