PIN OAK CHARITY HORSE SHOW
CELEBRATES ITS 65TH SEASON

at The Great Southwest Equestrian Center in Katy

March 17 – March 28, 2010

Venerable Competition One of the Oldest and Most Prestigious Shows in the Country

Founded in 1945 by Houston philanthropist James S. Abercrombie and his wife Lillie, The Pin Oak Charity Horse Show got its start as a fundraiser for the first hospital in Houston dedicated to children, and the proceeds of the 1947 show provided a considerable portion of the initial backing that established Texas Children's Hospital in the Texas Medical Center. To date, the show has raised close to $4 million for Texas Children's Hospital and Ronald McDonald House of Houston.


With a recent commitment of $300,000, Pin Oak is now helping build Texas Children's first hospital outside the Medical Center and one of the largest suburban pediatric hospitals in the country, Texas Children's Hospital West Campus. The gift will support the Hematology/Oncology services at the new hospital. 

No tickets are required Tuesdays through Fridays. Tickets are required for both Saturday March 20 and Saturday, March 27, 2010 at 6:00 p.m.
