JULY 2, 2020 update

The 2020 millbrook horse trials is CANCELLED
​FOR JULY 30-AUGUST 2

To competitors and supporters of the Millbrook Horse Trials:   
 
The Board of Directors unanimously decided today that it cannot proceed with this year’s competition.  While several weeks ago we took hope from improving conditions in our area and a broadly positive spirit in the country, recent events have led us to the conclusion that the interests of the communities we support will not be best served by holding the event this year.  All of our efforts to this point have been directed toward hosting a safe and successful competition, but the recent increase in the spread of the coronavirus, related new regulatory restrictions, and the impact this has had on support within our communities has convinced us that we should not proceed.  

​This is a great disappointment to us individually and as organizers of the event, as we know it will be too many who have been looking forward to Millbrook, with its full slate of competitive divisions, especially this year.  We are determined, however, that the support and energy that was to have gone into this year’s event will be turned to making MHT 2021 even better, as we proceed with our plans to begin making substantial upgrades in the coming years. 
 
We are thankful especially to all who have so generously contributed to our effort this year.  While we have incurred expenses in preparation for this year’s event, we have decided to refund all paid competitor entries in full (minus credit card fees), to refund or make applicable to MHT 2021 all sponsorship payments, and to refund contributions.  Should you wish to do so, we will gratefully accept any amounts contributed as fully tax deductible donations for this year’s expenses. 
 
With our thanks for your support and in anticipation of 2021, 
The Millbrook Horse Trials Board of Directors
