St. Andrews Special Events Symposium Originally founded in 1989 as a celebration of the 250th anniversary of the coming of the first group of Highland Scots to North Carolina, the “Scottish Heritage Symposium” provides an unparalleled opportunity for persons interested in Scottish and Scottish-American history and culture to learn from top scholars in their fields. This year’s symposium will be held March 20 – 22. The Symposium provides a forum for study and interaction for anyone interested in Scottish history, culture, and tradition. For any questions, please call Bill Caudill at 910-277-5236 or email [email protected] - reservations are suggested. Equestrian St. Andrews University features one of the premier collegiate equestrian centers in the country. Consequently, we are fortunate to host many of the marquee college events. Golf Scotland County On February 14th and February 21st, the center will host IHSA Hunter Seat Shows – including the Regional Finals on the 21st. Hunter seat involves both riding and jumping. On March 21st, the IDA Dressage Show will be held at St. Andrews. Made popular by the Olympics, dressage is a program where the horse and rider are expected to perform from memory a series of predetermined movements and steps. Whereas Hunter Seat would be considered athletic, Dressage is more artistic. February Events The spring schedule at the Equestrian Center is culminated with the ANRC National Championships from April 14th – 19th. This event brings all of the disciplines together (think of it as the decathlon of equestrian events). For more information on all of the events including times, contact the Equestrian Center at 910-276-7771 or [email protected] Page 1. 2. 3. 4.

In Scotland County that means the Lumber River, the bike trails, a stroll through the woods (or St. Andrews’ campus) and, most of all, the golf courses. St. Andrews Special Events Our Scottish forbears weren’t all work and no play. Along with their pipes and tartans, they brought their fascination with a little white ball and a bag full of clubs. But there’s a reason why golf’s American heritage is laden with images of the Sandhills region. The early spring in Scotland County provides much the same inspiring scenery as our rather more well-known neighbor to the north – namely, verdant pine trees with an understory of azalea and dogwood. Against this backdrop, golf course designers have laid out challenging links to test your skills while you enjoy a game with your foursome on a Saturday.
