CAN I "HARDSHIP" INTO REGION 3 TO COMPETE FOR REGIONAL EXPERIENCE AWARDS THIS YEAR? Yes this year, please contact AQHA today to apply for a Regional Experience hardship. New for 2009, anyone can apply to AQHA for a hardship to travel to a Regional Experience closer to their home.

As in previous years, you and your horse can only compete in one region and all Regional Experience eligibility rules still apply. SPECIAL PRIZE FOR PRE-ENTRIES ONLY!

One lucky exhibitor from our entries received by the June 10 deadline will win a Royal Blue Duralite Tack Trunk from Dan's Premium Stable Equipment - loaded with nearly everything you need to go to a horse show (horse not included).
