Welcome to HILLSDALE FAIRGROUND HORSESHOE CLUB Website. Our club originated many years ago when a group of local horseshoe pitchers came to the Hillsdale County Fairground Courts to play one night each week during the summer.  Sometimes called the 'Thursday Night Horseshoe Group'. We formally organized our club in 2003 to help  expand our membership and include formal league play.  In addition, our Club sponsors the Hillsdale County Fair Tournaments jointly with the Hillsdale County Fair Board in September.  View the current daily County Fair Tournament SCHEDULE. Our membership includes anyone participating in one or more league sessions during the summer.

TEDRICK AND RYAN INDUCTED INTO WSHPA HALL OF FAME

Bill Tedrick and Rex Ryan were inducted into the Wolverine State Horseshoe Association Hall of Fame during the State Horseshoe Championship Tournament held at Taylor, Michigan on September 1-3. Fred Smith, member of the Hall of Fame Committee, presented the Award at the awards ceremony. 

Tedrick and Ryan were cited for their long WSHPA membership and their work at the local level over the many years of NHPA and WSHPA members.  Ryan organized the local Hillsdale Fairground Group and served as Coordinator for the Horseshoe Tournaments at the annual Hillsdale County Fair for many years.  Tedrick assumed the coordinator duties in 2003 and the Hillsdale Fairground Horseshoe Club was organized that year.

The Hillsdale Fairground Horseshoe Club sponsors the County Fair Tournaments as part of the fair program that usually attracts over 100 tournament pitchers during the fair,  The Club also conducts a Summer Horseshoe League that pitches every Thursday evening from early April through August. Some 25 local horseshoe pitchers participated in the 2007 Summer League program.  The club will hold nine tournaments during the 2007 Hillsdale County Fair with evening tournaments on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evening and daily afternoon tournaments each day of the fair.
