Essex Horse Trials Country Weekend
                             June 24 and 25, 2017
 In June 2016, over four hundred guests and equine enthusiasts gathered to celebrate
 the revival of Mars Essex Horse Trials, last held in 1998. The return of this renowned
 tradition is part of a strategic plan developed by community leaders and local
 equestrian organizations, aimed at revitalizing and growing premiere equestrian
 competitions in Somerset County and the surrounding region.

 Mars Essex Horse Trials is the first equestrian event, apart from Far Hills Race
 Meeting Association (FHRMA), to be held on Moorland Farm, a 230 acre estate at the
 cross-roads of Somerset, Hunterdon and Morris counties. In its 97th year, FHRMA
 draws over 40,000 spectators and has raised millions of dollars for health care in the
 region.

 The beautiful setting, perfect competitive conditions and family entertainment will
 make Essex a “must attend” event for spectators and professional and amateur
 competitors. Plans include a lifestyle boutique market, farm-to-table cuisine, a
 children’s activity tent sponsored by Willow School, “Horse Power”—a classic car
 show, tailgating on the hilltop and membership to the “Hoopstick Club” - a ring-side,
 all-inclusive two-day pass to the event. (www.essexhorsetrials.org).

 Best of all, Mars Essex Horse Trials will benefit the Greater Newark Life Camp whose
 mission is to provide an enriching day-camp experience for over 300 inner-city youth
 each summer.

 We hope you will join us on June 24 and 25, 2017 for what promises to be a great
 weekend in the country!

About Our Beneficiary

     The Life Camp movement began in 1887, when the original editor of Life Magazine founded the Life Fresh Air Fund to aid
     underprivileged children by sending them to the country for fresh air and sunshine. The Life Farm in Pottersville was first
     opened 93 years ago in 1923, and we continue to provide children from Newark with an enriching summer program in the
     country, something which they would otherwise not be able to experience.

     Today, LifeCamp provides a summer day camp experience for 300 Newark area youths per day for six weeks during the
     months of July and August. Campers are between the ages of 6 and 13, and come from the greater Newark public school
     system, as well as from Newark Charter School Programs (KIPP, Philip’s, North Star, Link, Newark Legacy and New
     Horizon).

     The LifeCamp campus is located on 90 acres of open fields, rolling hills, woodlands and the Lamington River. The
     campus is an effective teaching environment that makes learning enjoyable by providing experiential and contextual
     learning linked to the camp’s curriculum. The curriculum provides all campers with the opportunities to gain self-
     confidence and a sense of accomplishment as we continue to add and improve challenging and enriching opportunities.

     The overall LifeCamp program balances the arts, athletics and academic enrichment as well as personal growth and
     development, and is designed to help Newark’s youth become more confident in their abilities, improve their self-esteem,
     and foster greater autonomy and leadership qualities.
