“Over the past week, we have started making serious upgrades to the footing in all competition and warm-up arenas,” added Charlotte Robson, Manager of the Colorado Division of LEG Shows & Events. “We are gearing up for a spectacular season and working hard to make significant facility enhancements. We look forward to continuing top equestrian sport at The Colorado Horse Park.”
