APHA’s Paint Horse Championship program is back for 2019 and already approved for a few events this year—the first of which is the Northeast Paint Horse Championship Show taking place at the Mid-Atlantic Paint Classic Show held May 11-12 in Culpeper, Virginia. 

“APHA is dedicated to listening to our exhibitors and working to provide the best possible competition environment,” Senior Director of APHA Events Holly Slaughter said. “By shifting our cutting world championship events to the summer, we hope to make this prestigious event easier to attend for more exhibitors. The date change also allows us to provide top-quality footing while keeping exhibitor costs down, thanks to a partnership with the National Cutting Horse Association’s Summer Cutting Spectacular, which immediately follows our events.”

During the clinics, donations will be accepted from the audience for the AQHA Professional Horsemen’s Crisis Fund. The crisis fund helps professionals in times of need, arising from sudden and demonstrable hardship or disaster of a severe and unexpected nature or from serious physical illness. AQHA Professional Horsemen truly appreciate your generosity by donating to the crisis fund and look forward to seeing you at the Ride the Pattern clinics at this year’s show!
