    OSM Horse Shows is pleased to announce the 28th Annual Colorado Summer Classic Horse Shows. This prestigious equestrian event is staged in cooperation with The Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo Foundation.

    The show will begin daily at 8:00 am with show jumping competitions throughout the day. The highlight of the event will be a $25,000 Grand Prix at 7:00 pm on Saturday, June 19th and Saturday, June 26th. The Grand Prix offers the highest level jumping competition of the show. Each horse/rider will jump a sequence of approximately 12 jumps. About 800 riders/horses in total will compete at the shows - truly a spectacular sport to witness live. In Europe, show jumping is second only to soccer, as a televised sport. Grand Prix grandstand seating is free to the public and media. Each Grand Prix will also feature a VIP Party in the magnificent clubhouse, with proceeds benefiting the SaddleUP! Foundation, a nonprofit organization that provides horse therapy for the mentally, emotionally, and physically challenged, including but not limited to, Autism Spectrum Disorders, ADD/ADHD, Traumatic Paralysis, Muscular Dystrophy, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Fragile X Syndrome, Prader-Willi Syndrome and Multiple Sclerosis.
