I have some more good news to share.
The Mcminn Expo Center will be replacing the footing over the coming winter!
They are looking at options for watering the new footing and we are discussing adding panels for the facility to enlarge the arena space!
This is great news for our show community!
I will keep everyone posted as they make progress.
If you get a moment, drop the Mcminn County Mayors office a line to show your support of this.
We need this support to continue the series!

That's a wrap 2024!  It's been an amazing year of growth for so many riders.  Thank you for sharing your journey with us...

Get to know us ....

The Smoky Mountain Horse Show series (founded in 2012 by Matthew Lawson and Ashley Jenkins) is the first show of its kind that offers a “Big” horse show experience but at a cost that is affordable. We have put together a great horse show series that has many fun and competitive classes while teaching hard work and discipline to the students and trainers that participate.

​SMHSS is a dedicated group of horsemen and women committed to facilitating a positive, family friendly horse show environment for all ages and disciplines. We believe in promoting good sportsmanship, integrity, as well as animal husbandry and care practices. It is our goal to educate today's children, as they are tomorrows professionals and leaders in our sport. Horse shows encourage personal and community growth and development, while promoting local businesses, education and enrichment.
