Twilight Jumpers at Great Meadow will be an evening event held on a series of Friday nights under the lights at Great Meadow (The Plains, VA). 2011 Dates for the series are May 20th, July 22nd, August 12th and September 16th.
Modeled after Great Meadow's highly successful Twilight Polo event, Twilight Jumpers will offer two invitational classes each night. Proceeds will benefit the High Performance Equestrian Foundation and The Great Meadow Foundation, both deserving 501(c)(3) non-profit foundations.
Gates will open at 6:30pm. The first class ($500 Child/Adult Amateur Class at 1.05m) begins at 7 pm. The second class ($5000 at 1.30m) will start at 8:30 pm. The class size is limited to 20 competitors. The evening will feature top competition, intense tailgating, and dancing in the pavilion after the competition.
Whether you want to compete, reserve a rail side box for 6, tailgate, or just picnic on the grass for $20/carload, it's a great way to support these two worthy non-profit organizations and bring the Jumpers back to Great Meadow! Be sure to join our Facebook Event!

HPEF helped to run the Horseless Horse Show at HITS Culpeper this past July, where kids of all ages competed over a power and speed jumper course and handy hunter course... on their own two feet! Proceeds from the classes went to HPEF. Many thanks to Judy's Tack Shop for their wonderful kiddie jumps and to HITS!
HPEF put on a competitive, hilarious fundraiser at HITS where exhibitors voted each week of the show for who they wanted to see, well, KISS THE PIG! The slates were categorized differently each week: Week 1 Grand Prix Riders, Week 2 Trainers, Week 3 Hunter Riders and Week 4 Familiar Faces. Who kissed the pig in front of the Sunday Grand Prix crowd?
More Kiss the Pig Photos!
Thank you to all who participated and donated; a special thank you, also, to HITS management for allowing us to hold the fundraiser.
Thank you to everyone who participated in and audited our Jumping Clinic with Joe Fargis on December 12, 2009. The day was a great success, as there was an excellent turn-out of spectators, the participants rode well, and, of course, Mr. Fargis gave a fantastic clinic. One of the favorite Fargis quotes of the day was: "If you take your time, you'll get there faster."
HPEF would like to extend a special thank you to Foxcroft School for allowing HPEF to hold the clinic in their impressive indoor arena and for their many riding students who did a great job in representing the school. Above all, HPEF thanks Joe Fargis for generously donating his time for the benefit of the foundation.

Thank you to all who attended the HPEF kick-off party at the HITS USGPL finals at Commonwealth Park on Friday, September 25, 2009. The party was a smashing success, with great food and drink and essentially the whole horse show enjoying the evening in the pavilion. Congratulations to Chuck Waters who won the raffle for the Basket of Cheer filled with great wine and goodies. HPEF is very grateful to all who generously supported the Foundation through donations and the purchase of raffle tickets.
HPEF would also like to extend a special thank you both to Horse Shows in the Sun for the venue and for the HITS Cafe cuisine and to all of the food and drink donors that made the banquet table a delicious feast. We appreciate the drink donations given by Virginia Eagle Distributing Company, Brookledge Inc. Horse Transportation, and Meadowville Farm. We highly recommend the following restaurants in Culpeper that provided fantastic dishes; please be sure to try them out:
China Inn, Dragon Chef, Glory Days Grill, Ledo Pizza & Pasta, Luigi's Italian Restaurant, Pancho Villa's Mexican Restaurant, Sophie's, Tea, Lace & Roses and Thai Culpeper
Thank you, also, to Balloons Unlimited who provided the spectacular array of balloons.
