| The horses will be staying at Full Gallop Farm in Aiken, SC. This has become a staple of Team CEO's spring schedule! We have stayed at Full Gallop for the last two years, and it is a breathtaking and wonderful facility in the heart of Aiken. The farm offers a wonderful XC course from BN to Intermediate, including TWO FABULOUS WATER JUMPS which will be FULL all week! The farm also offers a full competition stadium course. The footing is a wonderful sand-grass mixture, and there are hundreds of acres to ride & gallop. The stabling is beautiful, and parking is a mere 30-feet or so from your stall. They permit us the use of small turnout paddocks, so the horses get to go out and play as well. Some of the XC course is shown in photos on this page. Aiken is the most happening winter eventing hub in the country this year!!! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
