The Plaid Horse has joined The Devon Horse Show as a media partner with magazine distribution for its 2022 edition. The show, recognized as a US Equestrian Heritage Competition, runs May 26, 2022 through June 5, 2022 in Devon, PA.
Held since 1896, The Devon Horse Show is the oldest and largest outdoor multi-breed horse show in the United States. In addition to its prestigious competition, The Devon Horse Show also offers special events such as the Carriage Pleasure Drive, Tribute to Heroes—Memorial Day, and Arena Eventing.
The Devon Country Fair was established in 1919 and raises money for Bryn Mawr Hospital through activities such as an Art Gallery, Ladies Day, Family Days, and more.
The Plaid Horse will return for its 19th year of partnership with The Devon Horse Show, providing media coverage and magazine distribution.
“We are delighted to have our anniversary issue coincide with our 19th year of distribution at The Devon Horse Show,” says The Plaid Horse Publisher Piper Klemm, Ph.D. “There is so much tradition, history, and community at The Devon Horse Show, and we are delighted to be partnered with them once again. I was born in Philadelphia and went to the nearby Agnes Irwin School in Rosemont, PA. Since childhood, I have been attending The Devon Horse Show, and it remains something I look forward to each year.”
