Arizona
Horse Council ACTHA AOC – SAVE THE DATE!
Saturday, October 24, 2015
Limited to 50 Riders
The Arizona Horse Council is scheduling an ACTHA Arena
Obstacle Challenge (AOC) for Saturday, October 24, 2015 at the Pinal County
Fairgrounds located at 512 South Eleven Mile Corner Road, Casa Grande, Arizona. Sign in will begin at 7:30 a.m. Competition will start at 9:00 a.m.
The American Competitive Trail Horse Association, Inc.
(ACTHA) was founded by Texan Carrie Scrima to provide a venue for casual and fun
competition for trail horses and to provide jobs and recognition for able
bodied trail horses. ACTHA events are
held throughout the U.S. Horses
accumulate points that stay with them for life, thus adding to their
value. A portion of the proceeds from
every ACTHA ride is donated to a horse charity in need.
This is a competition that will challenge you and your horse
over a variety of obstacles. The course
will consist of 8 -10 obstacles in or near the arena. All breeds of horses, ponies and mules are
accepted. An in-hand division is also
being offered.
Your entries will support Arizona Horse Council programs,
including trail advocacy and youth education.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to a deserving equine charity
or organization. If you’d like more info
