Welcome to the Queen's Cup Steeplechase website.
We hope you're enjoying the CDROM presentation.

There are a number of tailgating options availed to individuals who want to entertain their friends and family at "The Party & Social Event of the Year!" The Seventh Annual Queen's Cup Steeplechase, held Saturday, April 27, 2002, will be the Spring time place to be. Come join us and Experience the Thrill of the 'Chase!

 

For the first time in Steeplechase history, The Charlotte Steeplechase Association, in addition to selling regular spring subscriptions, is also offering for sale the opportunity to purchase Personal Space Licences (PSLs) for most entertainment & tailgating options. The PSLs are being used to retire the construction debt while they guarantee you the opportunity to hold a permanent tailgating space for your family long into the new millennium. Click the links below for more information.

If you have any questions at all, please see the contact information at the bottom of this page.
