Youth Activities. PtHAO is a family organization so
there's a "spot" for the kids as well as the adults. The youth have riding
clinics, hold fund raisers, attend equine events together, have social activities, and
compete in team tournaments at the World Show. Youth can
compete for national awards in the PtHA awards program. There's also an opportunity for the very young
exhibitor in Leadline (8 and under) and Walk-Trot (11 and under).
Amateur Activities. We do not have a
separate amateur group, but there is a full slate of Amateur classes at all of our
shows. If entries warrant, many of the Amateur classes will be split into Junior (19-39),
Senior (40-54) and Elite (55 & over). Don't think that you're too old to show as many of us are in
the "over" category of the elite group. There are also
Novice Amateur classes for the new exhibitor with limited show experience.
Like the Youth, Amateurs
have the opportunity to compete in team tournaments at the World Show.
Shows. The schedule for the 2008 show season is: May
3/4,
Ashland; May 31/June 1, Ashland; June 10-21, World Show, Tulsa;
July 5/6, Springfield; July 25-27, Jubilee Show, Berrien Springs, MI September
6/7, Hilliard. There will be one show bill spread over the two days with
five judges for each show--the Jubilee show will have four sets of points, three judges plus an
average.. There will be Novice Amateur classes in
showmanship, English and Western pleasure as well as a Novice Amateur walk-trot
class. There will be no entry fee charged for YA Leadline Equitation, YA Walk-Trot Pleasure
and YA Walk-Trot Equitation.
Royalty Competition. Each year young ladies
and young men have the opportunity to compete for the titles of Sweetheart (ages 9-13), Princess (ages
14-17), Prince (ages 9-17) and Queen (ages 18-25). They represent us at club events as well as other
equine activities. Please
contact Julie Bowers for information.
Year End Awards. As a member of PtHAO, you
can nominate your animal for Ohio year-end awards. Grand and Reserve Champion awards
plus awards to sixth place are presented in Open, Amateur, Youth, Pony, and
Miniature. In addition, there are numerous rotating trophies
presented for high point in various categories. PtHA also presents year end awards
in each of the divisions as well as national and zone top ten awards to Youth and
Amateurs.
