Buckle to class winners
Entry criteria: Open to all stock-horse type horses foaled in Virginia, irrespective of breed, as indicated by registration papers or other proof, to be reviewed by the committee.
Nominations: Sire or dam of entered horses may be nominated. This is optional.
Nomination fee: $10 fee (not paid by lifetime program members)
Benefits: Nominators receive publicity for their mare/stallion through the VQHA newsletter, Facebook posts, and press releases distributed to statewide media outlets and the VQHA website. This publicity will highlight individual breeders/owners and help position Virginia as a viable place to shop for horses.
Classes offered: Non-pro classes (open to amateur and youth competitors) will run concurrently with all-breed amateur western pleasure, amateur ranch rail, amateur hunter under saddle, adult halter mares, adult halter geldings
