AQHA and USEF to discuss promoting English riding Wednesday, December 16.
The American Quarter Horse Journal, November 25, 2009 – AQHA Professional Horsemen Association members who compete in English events or train English riders are invited to attend an AQHA open forum to be held during the AQHA judges workshop in December.
The English forum will be Wednesday, December 16 at 8:30 a.m. The forum will inform members about AQHA’s alliance with the United States Equestrian Federation and discuss ways to cross-promote the American Quarter Horse in over-fences and flat classes outside of traditional AQHA show events.
“We look forward to drawing from the knowledge of AQHA professionals and other interested people involved with the English division to improve AQHA classes and increase participation,” said AQHA Executive Director of Judges Alex Ross. “The discussion will include all over-fences and flat classes, consideration of equipment and attire regarding show rules, eligibility rules and establishing a defined purpose for each class.” Read more> http://www.horsesinthesouth.com/article/article_detail.aspx?id=9012
