The Upperville C**t and Horse Show will celebrate Arbor Day on Friday, April 26. Visitors are welcome, free of charge to see and hear about the magnificent trees that have graced this historic property for 200-plus years--black gum and the iconic oak of the Piedmont.
Learn how a much-needed source of water was discovered through a new method and it now gushes 200 gallons per minute. Please mark your calendars for 11 a.m. that day. Attendees are encouraged to bring a picnic and take a self-guided tour under the tree canopy and explore the stream and wildlife habitat. Dogs are allowed but must be leashed and vaccinated.
As the oldest horse show in the U.S Upperville will celebrate its 171st year from Monday, June 3 through Sunday, June 9. The Arbor Day celebration will take place on the same show grounds the horse show has used for the past 171 years.
The site was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 2022. It’s one of the most historically intact horse show grounds in the nation. Some of the oak tree canopy actually shaded some Civil War action.
Founded in 1853 as a one-day show to encourage better breeding and care of horses, the Upperville has grown to a week-long tradition with thousands of equestrian and equine pairs competing in a variety of competitive disciplines. Many of the top equestrians from around the world will be competing, concluding with the $226,000 Upperville Jumper Classic finals. Details: www.Upperville.com

I think it’s time to go back to school. Ummm. Recently a family member and a friend asked me why I blocked them. I was confused. I checked just in case and there were no blocked people on my list. Then I see this. Hmmm, I am not the only one. So now I am fixing my blocked posts. I wondered where everybody had been! This is good to know. It's ridiculous to have over 300 friends and only 25 are allowed to see posts.
I ignored this post earlier because I didn’t think it worked. It WORKS!! I have a whole new news feed. I’m seeing posts from people I haven’t seen in years.
Here’s how to bypass the system FB now has in place that limits posts on your news feed. Their new algorithm chooses the same few people - about 25 - who will read your posts...
okay here goes....HELLO. To regain friends in your news feed and get rid of ads - Hold your finger anywhere in this post and click ′copy’. Go to your page where it says ‘What's on your mind?’ Tap your finger anywhere in the blank field. Click paste. This upgrades the system.
Hello new and old friends!🥰

It's sad we have to keep doing this to kill the Ads and see our friends hello haven’t seen you or your posts in a long time 😳
