New AMHR Show

[Maple Hollow Farm]

I just want to let everyone know that the Iowa Pinto Association is in the process of setting up a combined Pinto and AMHR show! Contracts have been sent out to our three judges and when we get them back I will announce them. The show is July 31-Aug 1 at the Iowa Equestrian Center. Anyone who has been there can tell you that it is one of the nicest facilities to show at. It is totally enclosed and climate controlled! The fees are going to be very reasonable!

We are putting this show on our calendar. Hard to turn down an opportunity to show to three judges at a great facility with in 35 miles from home.

Will you have classes for miniatures in Draft Harness. We love this facility to show in and might come if there are classes for us. (Single, double, four-up) Also the new class for light harness pairs or more. Thanks!

Awesome, Cant wait to see everyone there!

This is the first year they have done this so they dont want to have too many classes and have them go too late in the day. We will be taking suggestions at the show for the next year. We are just having a bare minimum of classes this year to see how it goes. If it goes well and is well attended we will add a few more classes if we can next year.

We are doing AMHR classes only because of time constraints. Until we know how fast the classes move along and how many horses we can expect each year we dont want to add too many extra classes when it is already two separate shows on the same weekend.

Sorry but we will hopefully be able to add certain classes next year to accomodate everyone!

Melinda,

Keep it in mind. There could be around 12 Modern Pleasures in a class, Moderns, there are a few less in the pinto world. Classics and Foundations - probably half of what a normal show would be due to the Pinto side of the show.

Classes would move fairly quickly in halter I believe on the ASPC side.

Please let us know details as it progresses and also I want to hear how the show went overall - maybe I could get MN Pinto Assn. to start this up!
