Attn: All horse trial competitors, parents and guests! Please remember that the electrical hook-ups at Twin Towers Park are for the Tent/Stabling lights and for our vendors to have power. They are not to plug in your rig to run refrigerators, a/c, heaters etc. Our power system isn't strong enough to handle everyone plugging in and we will blow the breakers and no one will have power. Please respect our vendors and tent lighting and leave the power cords alone. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
