SUMMARY:Devon Horse Show and Country Fair, Devon PA
LOCATION:Devon Horse Show &amp; Country Fair
DESCRIPTION:Although the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair is now the oldest and larges
 t outdoor multi-breed horse show in the country, it started with much more 
 humble beginnings. In the 1890’s there was a new migration into the rolling
  rich farmlands and small towns of the Philadelphia western suburbs. The ra
 ilroad lines attracted development to the newly christened “Main Line” area
 . Although families arrived to the Main Line by train, once settled they us
 ed horses as their primary form of transportation. Horse-drawn vehicles wer
 e used to go to church, to town, and to the market. On May 22, 1896 a meeti
 ng was called by the gentlemen of the Main Line area inviting their friends
  and neighbors to “effect an organization for the purpose of holding a Hors
 e Show at Devon.” Less than two months later the first Devon Horse Show was
  held!\n
\n
The first show was a one-day event that consisted of approximat
 ely thirty classes. At most, each class had ten entries. The fenced-in show
  ring was constructed on grass and the judges and officials sat in a gazebo
  in the center of the ring.\n
\n
Before long, the show was expanding in res
 ponse to overwhelming demand. By 1914 show had become the largest outdoor h
 orse show in the entire country. A grandstand was erected for the comfort o
 f the spectators. Even more luxurious were the famed box seats covered by a
  canvas awning. The elite could now watch the show in complete comfort.
