Due to the coronavirus and the impact it is having on our VQHA shows for this year. The Board has decided the following:
Memberships:
- For those who paid for 2020 memberships, horse nominations and/or reserved numbers this year, VQHA will honor these memberships, nominations and reserved numbers for the 2021 calendar year.
- For those members who have multiple year memberships that have not expired, your memberships will be extended one year longer.
Year End Awards – 2019 and 2020
For 2019 awards, we have awards for classes not certificates for Champion and Reserve Champion unless you won multiples. (If you would like these mailed please contact Laura Boardwine. I will also have these at the September show in Lexington, VA.) The amateurs will be mailing the third and fourth place amateur awards shortly as well .
For 2020 awards, due to the impact of the 2020 show season, we will not be providing year end awards for this year.
This year has certainly been a challenge, one that we have not ever been challenged with before. Of utmost importance is that you all stay safe and healthy. We look forward to when the economy reopens and we are all able to gather and enjoy catching up.
Dear Exhibitors,
I just received word from the CEO of the Virginia Horse Center that the Board of Directors of the VHC is closing the facility down for the next 15 days. Therefore, the Spring Breakout Show will be cancelled.
Thank you everyone for your support thus far. It was shaping up to be a great show. Cameron and I have put our heart and soul into this show to make it great for our exhibitors. But when the GOING GETS TOUGH, THE TOUGH GET GOING ….
We are already working hard on the VIRGINIA NATIONAL STOCK HORSE SHOW, which will be held in Lexington, VA, June 4 thru 7. We are adding a lot of NSBA futurity classes to the schedule. Stayed tuned for more information on this show. It is an all-breed stock horse show to include AQHA, APHA, PHBA, ApHC, AND ABRA. We will be moving the futurity classes that were to be held at the Breakout to the Virginia National Stock Horse Show.
If you sent in money for stalls, you will be refunded. I will start working on that this week. Please text me or PM me if you have any questions or concerns. 703-201-2915.
Take care and be safe,
Suzanne
