Dressage for a Cause is an annual fundraising horse show event taking place every November during epilepsy awareness month to benefit CURE Epilepsy. Our goal is to raise $100,000 to fund a Taking Flight Award/research grant in an effort to find a cure for those living with epilepsy.
For over a decade, every November, Majestic Farm has put on an annual horse show called the Turkey Trot. In 2018, though, as part of epilepsy awareness month, Majestic Farm announced a call to purple!
In a show of support for Channing, competitors wore purple show clothes, painted their faces with purple, and some even spray painted their horses purple!
What’s more, the show raised $750, which Channing donated to CURE Epilepsy.

The next year, 2019, the Turkey Trot evolved even further. Majestic Farm generously changed the Turkey Trot to Dressage for a Cause. The fundraising goal that year was $2,500, but Channing’s fans stepped up big and raised just shy of $6,000 for C.U.R.E. (Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy).
This year, the goal is to raise $7,500, because until there’s a cure, drug-resistant epilepsy will hold the remote control that dictate our lives.
