Something You Should Know About Me
Join us LIVE on April 30, 2011 for an exciting arena show featuring world class horse reining competition and a very special concert from Grammy-winning music superstar SHERYL CROW!
We hope you'll tune in and make a donation to help benefit some wonderful charities.
For the past 20 years, William Shatner has spearheaded the HCHS to raise money for a worthy children’s charity.
It was back in the late 1980s that Shatner first watched an exhibition by children who were so severely handicapped that some of them could not hold their head up, yet there they were going through intricate exercises on the back of a horse. The program was sponsored by Ahead With Horses, a therapeutic riding group for handicapped children. When the exhibition was over, Shatner sat, deeply affected by what he had seen. "You can't watch these kids without knowing you have to help, somehow." And so, in March of 1990 came the birth of the first Hollywood Charity Horse Show. Soon, other charities in need of help were added, small, grass root charities doing big time jobs.
Today, the Priceline.com Hollywood Charity Horse Show, Sponsored by Wells Fargo is an ongoing event that garners national press coverage. On one special spring Saturday evening each year, the HCHS brings together world-class reining horses and riders in breathtaking slides and spins as they compete for top honors in their respective classes. Then, as the sun sets, the much anticipated auction and music show put on by headline groups for an uplifting and worthy event to support an important cause. This year's musical guest is Sheryl Crow.
