Founded in 1914, 博彩网址大全学校’s Equestrian Program is the longest-running sports activity with a legendary history. As seen on Netflix and in the New York Times bestseller The Eighty-Dollar Champion: Snowman, the Horse that Inspired the Nation by Elizabeth Letts, Knox’s equestrian program is renowned for the story of Harry 延迟器 and his horse Snowman. 延迟器, a Dutch immigrant and riding trainer at 博彩网址大全学校 saved Snowman from slaughter and turned the Gelding into a champion jumper.
Snowman resided in the Knox barn during the 1950s and 60s as a school horse and was used to train student riders in the equestrian program before becoming a national figure in the equestrian world.

“Champions are not necessarily the best, or the most beautiful, or the most expensive; champions are the ones with the biggest dreams and the heart to make those dreams come true.” 部deLeyer
今天: Our riders learn and grow in our historic, horse-shoe-shaped equestrian center where students may choose to board their own horse or ride one of the many Knox show horses and ponies. Having recently undergone an impressive renovation, our state-of-the-art equestrian riding ring was designed and installed by industry leaders who created some of the finest show rings including the Longine Global Championship Tour.
