Naples Equestrian Challenge's Annual Horse Show Week is traditionally held in the Spring-before Easter and before all our wonderful seasonal volunteers go back "up north".

The horse show is open to all current participating riders of NEC.  Riders invite their family and friends to see some of the skills that they have mastered over the past year.  We wrap up our busy week with an afternoon of celebration!

Friends of NEC are also invited to to come to NEC and experience first hand the joy that our therapeutic riding brings so many special individuals, and Triple Crown level Friends of NEC are invited to present trophies at the end of each class.

Volunteers are essential to the success of our Annual Horse Show Week!  Volunteers work with our Riding Instructors to bathe, braid, and prepare the horses and the ring the day before the show.  Then it's 'all hands on deck' as our volunteers make everything we do throughout the week possible!

Each show day is our rider's special day, but we do take the opportunity to do a little fundraising by offering a fantastic Raffle.
