By Bill Moss, Published: September 4, 2018

Sept. 17 will be Community Day at the FEI World Equestrian Games with free parking and free admission for folks in nearby communities, the Organizing Committee of the games announced.

The free day is a thank you to regional North Carolina and South Carolina communities that have supported Tryon International Equestrian Center's efforts to host the WEG this September 11-23.
While no WEG competitions are being held that day, plenty of free, family fun is scheduled throughout the day. Live demonstrations and exhibitions from internationally-renowned performers like Australian Horseman Guy McLean, a two-time "World Champion of the Road to the Horse," and Double Dan Horsemanship. Both talented horsemen have wowed audiences with their masterful horse tricks around the world, including appearances on 'Australia's Got Talent.'"
The Coca-Cola Stage will feature live music throughout the day coupled with a meet-and-greet with WEG Mascots and mini-horses-extraordinaire, Star & Huck, at their Coca-Cola Mini Barn.
