The Silver Oak Jumper Tournament

The Silver Oak Jumper Tournament presented by The Davis McCullough Foundation

Dear Trainers, Exhibitors and Owners

We would like to begin by extending our sincere thanks to the Morrissey Management Group—our valued partners in producing the Silver Oak Jumper Tournament. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and the exceptional venue they provide each year are nothing short of extraordinary. It’s truly inspiring when an organization cares so deeply—and Morrissey Management does.

To our Sponsors—many of whom have been with us for over a decade—your unwavering support and involvement elevate the sport and sustain the charitable mission of the Silver Oak Jumper Tournament. Without you, the tournament would lose its impact, and the platform it provides for meaningful change would not exist.

To our title sponsor, Victoria McCullough, and the Davis McCullough Foundation—along with the Wolk family and Agero Corporation—we offer our deepest gratitude.

To the many incredible sponsors who support our athletes: Rood & Riddle Equine Hospitals, Stud Tree, the Greene Scalamandré Group at the Corcoran Group, Brook Ledge Horse Transportation, Mis Fit Res Q, Muny Sunk Stables, Dalman Jump Company, and Parkmore Supplements—thank you.

A special thank you to Cynthia Keating and GGT Footing—for delivering not only the finest footing in the sport but for being one of the most knowledgeable and passionate professionals in the industry. To Alexandra Cherubini and EquiFit, to the Roberts family and the World Equestrian Center, to Canine Support Teams, and to the Caridad Center—we are deeply appreciative of your continued support.

To our athletes—thank you for your sportsmanship, preparation, and excitement. You make this event what it is. A special tribute goes to the participants in the “Babington Benefit Classic”—past and future—for what your presence means to Kevin and his recovery. We are profoundly grateful.

Our work for the Babington Foundation is a year-round commitment, and the Silver Oak Jumper Tournament is inseparable from that mission. If we strive to celebrate equestrian excellence at its highest level, then we must work just as passionately to support those in our community facing the greatest challenges—especially those recovering from spinal cord injuries.

501c3 Non Profit

From the founding of the Silver Oak Jumper Tournament, we have endeavored to support ​important charitable organizations.  Historically the MSPCA, various therapeutic riding programs and children’s charities that benefit those who are seriously ill.  In October of 2016, after a long and appropriately tedious application process, we have now been named a registered 501 (c) (3).

This has serious tax advantages for our numerous and critical sponsors without whom we could not put on an event of this magnitude.  As “The Rider’s Horse Show” we want you to enjoy not just top sport, but the good feeling that comes from supporting an organization designed to do good things.

We are happy to announce today that we will be supporting Danny & Ron’s Rescue, and The Omega Horse Rescue and Rehabilitation Center.  This dove tails perfectly with the magnificent efforts of our perennial presenting sponsor, Victoria McCullough of the Davis McCullough foundation, who is singularly responsible for thousands of rescues and adoptions of horses otherwise destined for slaughter, and spearheading government efforts that have effectively banned horse slaughter in this country.

“The Silver Oak Jumper Tournament is one of the Nation’s top jumper shows, complete with attention to detail, quality at every turn and top sport.  It could easily be renamed the” Silver Heart Jumper Tournament, and I’m so proud to be involved.  These are my very favorite charities,” said Victoria McCullough Chairwoman, Chesapeake Oil, and Chair of the Davis McCullough philanthropic foundation.
