It combines world class dressage competition (index.php?option=com_content task=blogcategory id=24 Itemid=23) and the world's largest open breed show (index.php?option=com_content task=blogcategory id=5 Itemid=18) with the international Fall Festival (index.php?option=com_content task=blogcategory id=26 Itemid=29) shops and special activities (index.php?option=com_content task=blogcategory id=9 Itemid=10) for the entire family. The historic and charming Devon Horse Show Grounds (index.php?option=com_content task=blogcategory id=8 Itemid=6) , located on US Route 30 just west of I-476 in Devon, Pennsylvania provide the ideal venue for this exciting event. The grounds include covered grandstand seating at the main Dixon Oval, a second performance arena, warm-up areas, extensive stabling and the tree-shaded lanes of the Festival area. Dressage at Devon benefits Thorncroft Therapeutic Horseback Riding, Inc. (http://www.thorncroft.org) , one of the oldest and largest therapeutic riding facilities in the nation. Thorncroft helps the disabled to improve balance, circulation, muscle tone and concentration, while enhancing self-esteem. Since 1991 Dressage at Devon has raised in excess of $1,000,000 for Thorncroft.
