March 6, 2026 | Terrier Races & Cook Out
Goodwin Centennial Trophy to be awarded annually
As a part of our Centennial Hunt Weekend Celebration, we are bringing back the community favorite tradition of Terrier Racing!
On March 6, starting at 4:30pm and followed by a Cook Out at the Tryon Hounds' Clubhouse, we will offer 3 classes of racing: Small Terrier (13" and under at the shoulder). Large Terrier (over 13" at the shoulder) and Couch Potato (self descriptive - for non-terrier house dogs! ) There will be over fence races in addition to flat races. A Grand Champion will be crowned with a 'race-off' between all the winners of the classes. Bring your dog or just come to enjoy the fun event!
Entry fees are $10 per dog to be paid at registration on the day of the event. Open to all interested members of the local community.
Races are sponsored by Goodwin Hounds, and all proceeds benefit Goodwin Hounds.
**Muzzles are required for the racing, and no dogs are allowed to be off leash unless they are racing.
March 4 - 7, 2026 | Hunt Weekend
Plans are coming together for our Centennial Hunt Weekend, scheduled for Wednesday, March 4 - Saturday, March 7.
We have reserved a block of rooms at the hotel at Tryon International Equestrian Center (TIEC), and reserved stalls at both TIEC and Harmon Field for guests and their horses. More information will be available as our Centennial Hunt Weekend gets closer.
Capping with Green Creek Hounds on March 4 at Coxe Road Fixture (9am) and/or possible with Goodwin Hounds on March 8 at TBD is offered to those that wish to expand their Hunt Weekend
There are also many non-horsey activities in the area for your non-horsey friends. Golf, shooting, antiqueing, and visiting the many fine local vineyards are all favorites of local foxhunters and their families.
Make your plans and reserve a spot early. Space for guest riders is limited - Click here to reserve your spot!
