All pro photos courtesy of bar H Photography.
The Iowa Quarter Horse Association, an AQHA affiliate, is 74 years strong in 2025! Another cause for celebration in 2025 for members was the IQHA Snowflake Circuit, held February 13-16 at Iowa Equestrian Center in Cedar Rapids, IA.
The circuit offered four AQHA judges and two NSBA judges: Thursday-Friday judges were Randy Alderson and Amy Marx, and Saturday-Sunday judges were Merle Arbo and Matt Claypool.
Deb Goldoni was honored as the amateur sportsmanship recipient at the Snowflake Circuit! (Thank you to Sandeee Kraft-Noah for sponsoring the $25 Casey’s gift card.)
