Kicking off the Stars N Stripes and Big A extravaganza in Conyers, GA., the first portion of the event was a resounding success, according to An Equine Production Show Management Team.

The Stars N Stripes took place June 26th-28th and closed unofficially with 7,500+ AQHA entries across all judges. Despite the recent COVID-19 shutdowns, that’s a marked increase over 2019 numbers, which saw 6,482 entries.
