Appaloosa Youth
2019 World Champion- ship Appaloosa Youth Show In The Books
The World Championship Appaloosa Youth class- es began on Monday, July 1st commencing a busy week ahead for 18 & under competitors. Youth exhibitors not only competed with their horses for World Championship titles, but also in the Team Tournament, AYA Speech Con- test, Boot Scramble, Scavenger Hunt, and Wheelbarrow Race, and the Dennards Western Wear Egg Toss. The first ever AYA movie night was held on Friday, where youth and their families gathered to watch Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron and enjoy refreshments, sponsored by Erin Greathouse & 3G Performance Horses. It was a fun week for all!
The Champion of Champions competition was a highlight of the show, taking place prior to the Team Tournament Parade and Awards Ceremony on Satur-
day, July 6th. Equitation exhibitors from across disciplines competed for the coveted trophy, buckle, neck sash, roses, and (new this year) a $1,000 scholarship, all proudly spon- sored by Deerfield Farm, LLC. This unique competition encourages individuality and creativity as riders perform a self-choreographed pattern to music of their choice. To find out more about the 2019 World Champion-

Shetland Ponies Win National Titles at 73rd Annual ASPC National Congress
The American Shetland Pony Club (ASPC) hosted their 73rd annual national champion- ship, the ASPC National Con- gress, from July 29-August 3, drawing hundreds of the coun- try’s top American Shetland po- nies to the National Equestrian Center in Lake St. Louis, MO. Congress is the ASPC’s longest running show, showcasing the best of the American Shetland pony breed in the Classic, Foun- dation, Modern, and Modern Pleasure sections as they vied for national championship titles in everything from leadline to road- ster stake classes.
ASPC members look for- ward not only to the competition at Congress, but also to the ca- maraderie and fundraising op- portunities, including the annual “Pony Toss” game and a raffle in which the drawn ticket won a Shetland pony generously donat- ed by an ASPC member. At the conclusion of Con- gress, youth and amateur com- petitors gathered in center ring for the high-point awards cer- emony. Grand champions and reserve grand champions in each division for the Classic, Foun- dation, Modern, and Modern Pleasure Shetland ponies were awarded trophies and a halter bag or cooler.
