What's new for 2025?

What's new for 2025? 

• We've added more money and have buckles for first place! In 2024, we had 334 entries and had over $85,000 awarded in payouts and prizes. Fun Fact - did you know we are one of the very few associations who still offer top notch prizes for 1st and 2nd place?
• We have a complete bridle set for the winners of the Open Bridle, Non Pro Bridle, and Non Pro Boxing Spectacular classes this year! Yep! You read that right, complete set! The reins, the bit, and the amazing championship headstall could all be yours. 
• We have 4 - $100 gift cards to Vickers Western Wear for our Non Pro Boxing and Box Drive Champions! Imagine going to your next horse show in style, because not only did you win your class at our show, but you also received a $100 GC! 
• A Shellie's Western Creation purse has been donated, by Shellie Griffin, for our Non Pro Fence work High Score. Let us tell you, this purse if FABULOUS! Take a look at it when your checking in at our show office.
• Boxing classes are still merged!  Our show is in the middle of summer... outside... in 100+ degree weather.  We feel we need to be looking out for our competitors and their unicorns. Again this year, we will have all the Non Pro Boxing classes show concurrently (LAE not included). What does this mean? It means that while at other shows you normally would show your horse more than once, you will not be able to at ours this year. 
• Short Stirrup class is back! Who didn't enjoy watching the kids show their horses last year?  This spectator favorite class has some super special awards for all kids 10 & younger* who enter. (*cannot be entered in any other MVRCHA competitive class, yes... we had to add this part)
• We will have a catered taco bar dinner Saturday night with a live blue grass band, featuring Heather Tiel-Nelson, in the RV parking area. This will be hosted by MVRCHA. Donations are accepted. 
• More fun Saturday night! What goes great with dinner? How about a large water slide and axe throwing!? This adult size water slide will be set up in the RV area and, returning again, Twin Blades Axe Throwing. This was made possible by 2 Lazy T's Ranch & Equine Rehab and Rockin' Horse Photography.
