AQHA Region Five exhibitors are preparing for the 2020 AQHA Region Five Championships, which is August 26 at the Gloucester County Dream Park in Logan Township, New Jersey. The AQHA Regional Championships provide American Quarter Horse enthusiasts a chance to test their horse-showing skills.

Are you ready to put your judging knowledge to the test? If so, the APHA World Championship Show is the perfect opportunity! APHA will host the 2020 horseIQ World Championship Judging Contest on September 23, taking place in conjunction with the APHA World Show in Fort Worth, Texas.

On August 1, during an extraordinary meeting of the DQHA membership, a new board was elected to lead DQHA toward this realignment. On August 18, newly elected DQHA President Thomas Dixon provided AQHA with a signed data-share agreement and notified AQHA that modifications have been made to the DQHA breeding program to change DQHA’s status from a studbook of origin to a daughter studbook of AQHA and that those modifications had been formally submitted to the local German competent authority. These monumental steps not only position DQHA for potential realignment as an AQHA affiliate, but also create clarity for the American Quarter Horse market across Europe.

“We are excited for Farnam to return to the AQHA corporate family as title sponsor of the prestigious AQHA World Championship Show,” said Craig Huffhines, AQHA executive vice president. “Farnam provides a variety of choices for AQHA members to choose from for their equine care needs.”
