==History==
The land which the course now occupies, now named Springdale Race Course, was originally purchased and developed as a race course by Ernest Woodward, a New York local both Chairman of the Board and owner of the Jell-O Corporation and an avid foxhunter with the Genessee Valley Hunt. In the 1940s Woodward gave the 600 acres of the course to Ernest Kirkover, who was unable to afford the costs of upkeeping the race course. The property was then sold a few years later to Mrs. Ambrose Clark of Aiken, SC; subsequent to her death the race course was bought by Marion duPont Scott. Mrs. Scott participated in the Carolina Cup at the Springdale Race Course in 1932 and won first place.〔"The 78th Annual Carolina Cup Horse Races." Web. 12 Sept. 2010. .〕
When Mrs. Scott died in 1983, the plus of Springdale Race Course was deeded to the state of South Carolina under agreement that the land remain solely for equine use in perpetuity. She also bequeathed a million dollar endowment for maintenance. Today the course is now ably managed by Jeff Teter, himself a former champion rider. Today both Springdale Race Course and the National Steeplechase Museum share the Board of Directors.〔"Carolina Cup's Profile - Tribe.net." Join or Login - Tribe.net. Web. 12 Sept. 2010. .〕
