Packed with tailgaters and horse lovers, the Equine Savings Elloree Trials has
been a tradition in Elloree for over 50 years. Over the years, loyal supporters
from all over the southeast have had the opportunity to see flat racing at its
best, with many of the competitors going on to win major events, including the Kentucky
Derby and the Preakness Stakes.
Franklin
"Goree" Smith, President of the Palmetto Jockey Club, announced the
sponsorship: "Equine Savings has stepped up to support the entire South
Carolina Equine Community at the local level, and we sure need more companies
like them in our industry."
"We've
been able to create something that involves people with the horse community by
informing them about horseracing while offering them a day of fun. It means a
lot to us to let others enjoy the racing aspect of our profession," Smith
added.
The
Equine Savings Elloree Trials benefits six different charities and
organizations in the area: the Lions Club, the Elloree Athletic Club, the
Evergreen Garden Club, the Knights
of Pythias, the Mentor Book Club and the Elloree Garden Club.
