Experience Unbridled History...
Kershaw County has a long association with horses. The third oldest continuously active polo field in the United States is in Camden. It can be found at the end of Polo Lane in the middle of town, near the sites of the large hotels that once served as winter residents for northerners seeking to escape the cold winters back home.
During the winter season, as many as 1500 thoroughbreds will call one of several training facilities home. Thoroughbred’s account for about 50% of the horse population in Kershaw County. In addition to thoroughbreds, the list of other horse breeds in the community at any time will include the following: Saddle bred, Pinto, Quarter Horse Mix, Appaloosa, Warmblood, Draft, Standardbred, American Paint Horse, Pony, Arabian, Miniature, Gaited, Tennessee Walking Horse, Halflinger, Morgan and Mule/Donkey.
