Field Hunter Championship Chairman Ms. Pippy McCormick has announced that this year's Field Hunter Championship of North America will be held in Middleburg's hunt country, where some of the best horses and riders in the country will hunt from Monday, September 30th through Friday, October 4th, behind the hounds of the Keswick Hunt, the Casanova Hunt, the Snickersville Hounds and the Piedmont Fox Hounds.

Championship Finals will be held on Sunday, October 6th at 12 noon just prior to the full day's races at Glenwood Park.

Trials with the judging of the "Best Turned Out" horse and rider, then moves to a short drag hunt that starts and ends right on the Glenwood Park race course. The field will then be narrowed to at least 10 finalists who will complete a "handy hunter" course where they may be required to drop a rail, open a gate and/or hand gallop and halt.

Spectators are encouraged to arrive early and walk out on to the race course so as not to miss the action.

The family of the late Mrs. Theodora Ayer Randolph will again honor her memory and her lifetime commitment to fox hunting by awarding a $2,500 cash prize to the home hunt of the winner of the 2013 Field Hunter Championship.

General Admission price is $30.00 per carload of four people.
