“The Paint Horse Championships are APHA’s way of encouraging the grassroots exhibitor and rewarding our Paint Horse exhibitors and horses who might not participate at the world level or have not had success at the World Shows.”

Additions to the rulebook for this year include new classes, fewer requirements for show approval, and amended registration rules.

Back by popular demand, the Midwest Horse Fair will feature two nights of Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) sanctioned Rodeo at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison, WI on April 15 & 16, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. Keeping inline with the 2016 theme, “The Sky’s the Limit”, each show will be a thrilling spectacle of great family entertainment packed into the 8,000 seat Coliseum.

AQHA changed the qualifying rules for 2016 only, so you definitely will want to check those out. Long story short: Exhibitors were not required to qualify for the 2016 Level 1 Championships, they only need to be eligible in 2015 to enter.

In 2016, PtHA exhibitors are going to see various changes and additions to the schedule for the Pinto World Championship Show, June 13-25, at the Built Ford Tough Livestock Complex at the Expo Square in Tulsa, OK.
