The Pennsylvania Quarter Horse Association Mid Summer Madness hosted a week of AQHA approved festivities in beautiful Centre Hall, PA for the always popular PQHA Mid Summer Madness. The AQHA event consisted of a Level 1 Novice show and two split-combined shows. 

Hosting a horse show during these uncertain times is daunting in and of itself, but try launching a brand new horse show during a global pandemic. Still, it has been proven, time and time again, that if you build it, they will come. AQHA and APHA competitors did just that at the first annual Big Country Quarter Horse Association Pumpjack Circuit over the weekend, July 15-19 in Abilene, Texas. 

AQHA competitors were met with a big ole’ dose of Texas hospitality when they attended the Athens Summer Jubilee July 8-12 in Athens, Texas.

There was a Team Tournament at the event, and the results are as follows. Team 1 was the winning team with a total of 47 points. They each won a leather halter from Mane Stream Saddlery. Team members were Kim Best, Laura Salome, Ryan Ventura, and Maggie Garwood. Team 3 came in second place with 45 points.

Now that competitions are starting to resume in certain states, exhibitors in the Midwest were excited to get back to their old stomping grounds at Gordyville in Illinois for the Illinois Paint Horse Association’s Firecracker Classic. True to the show’s name, the event took place July 2-3 over Fourth of July weekend.
