Devon is getting an extra day

The Devon Horse Show and Country Fair will be stretching out to 12 days this spring as it marks 128 years. It will run from May 22-June 2 and offer nearly $1 million in prize money.

Starting on a Wednesday instead of a Thursday during its first week will enable the show to end “in a timely manner” each evening, according to its CEO, Wayne Grafton.

The multi-breed show, which spent $1 million for improvements to the ground last year, benefits Bryn Mawr Hospital.
