Yadkin Valley Hounds held our 35th Annual Opening Hunt October 29, 2011. We participate in live foxhunting in Davie, Iredell, and Yadkin counties in North Carolina. We have both first and second fields — the former follows the Huntsman closely taking all jumps, the latter following at a somewhat slower pace and going around fences.
We meet twice a week, Wednesday and Saturday mornings, during the hunting season, mid-September through mid-March. Specific times and locations are announced on the Fixture Card.
YVH members enjoy a full social calendar throughout the year, from casual picnics to elegant evenings to weekend house parties. Please click on any of the links at left to learn more about YVH. We also welcome your inquiry.
