Dear Roan Horse Owner,

We are excited to launch our new Incentive Fund program for the American Roan Horse Association! The ARHA was incorporated in the fall of 2007 and held their first show in Newcastle , Indiana in September of 2008. Our new direction as we grow our registrations and memberships will be focused on dispersing award money across the country in 2010 so that all members can take advantage of the incentives we are offering. We will be participating at many major shows around the country and divide up the award money based on 2009 entry numbers of those identified shows. We want to include classes for cutting, reining, and roping along with a variety of pleasure classes next year and will make the awards to the highest placing ARHA registered horse in the class. The rider must have a current membership and the horse must be registered and paid into the ARHA's Incentive Fund to be eligible for the award money. Remember� you can't win if you don't sign up!

Shows that already have a commitment from us are the Southern Belle, Tom Powers, Virginia BIP, Oregon Classic, Indiana State Circuit Show and Futurity, Oregon Classic, MQHA Futurity ( Michigan ) and several others to be named shortly.

There will be a 30 day cut off for registration, membership, and Incentive Fund payment prior to each event. Award money distribution will be done shortly after each show when horses and exhibitors have been verified Remember you can't win if you don't sign up!

We still have some openings for show selections and welcome your input if you provide contact information to us for their officers or show committees.
