The Nashoba Carriage Association was founded in 1997 in Germantown, Tennessee. Early club activities included 'introduction to driving' clinics, and the first Nashoba Carriage Classic pleasure show was held in 1999 at Schilling Farms in Collierville, Tennessee.

In 2004, the Nashoba Carriage Classic moved to the Germantown Charity Horse Show grounds, and the Arena Driving Trial was added to the show. The ADT is an exciting display of skill of both horse and driver as teams maneuver through hazards for the best time and the cleanest round.

Nashoba's members enjoy frequent clinics, pleasure drives and dinner meetings, where camaraderie and fellowship are hallmarks. In the spring of 2009, we held our first Fun Show, which included games as well as show classes to help participants learn the rules for combined driving events. Each spring, one of our members hosts a ‘Learning to Drive’ clinic which is open to all skill levels.

Our 2009 clinics featured trainers Wiebe Dragsta, Sterling Graburn, and Tom O'Carroll. Many of our members participate in combined driving events across the nation, while others simply enjoy the pleasure drives or local shows. The Germantown Charity Horse Show, held each year in June, is a major event for the club.

Having a horse is not a requirement for the Nashoba Carriage Association. A simple love for horses, driving and fun is sufficient, and there are many ways to be involved and support the club activities even without a horse.
