"Traditionally the Key Classic holds its 4-day show in May over Mother’s Day weekend at the Evergreen Equestrian Park in Monroe, Washington. Since the time this show was established in 1976, its popularity has grown and attracts horses from throughout the Pacific Northwest and Canada. The Key Classic has benefitted Equest Special Riders, Inc. of Tacoma, Washington since 1983. Equest Special Riders, Inc. is a non-profit organization of trained volunteers who provide therapeutic-recreational horseback riding and instruction for persons left physically or mentally dysfunctional through irregularities of birth, high fevers, disease or trauma from an accident. In 2012, the American Saddlebreds joined the Show and the schedule was expanded to include Saddlebred classes and many additional classes open to all breeds." (Promo Copy)
