ACTHA Monthly | June 2015 | 47
Pennsylvania Arabian Horse Association PAHA
Pennsylvania Arabian Horse Association and ACTHA Ride Host Stephanie Dobiss come together to offer additional rewards to Pennsylvania residents, who ride Arabians or Half Arabians and compete in ACTHA events. Stephanie, who also happens to be PAHA’s secretary, has four of her own upcoming ACTHA rides scheduled throughout the summer and fall in Pa Furnace. With ACTHA’s mission of ending equine unemployment and their “Ride for a Cause” motto based on the charitable giving’s to rescues and therapeutic facilities from rider entry fees, Stephanie is hoping to inspire more Arabian/Half Arabian owners in her state to get involved in competitive trail riding with ACTHA. Awards for the highest Pennsylvania A/HA point earner will be given at each ACTHA event held in PA as well as a state yearend award to the highest point earner courtesy of the PAHA.
Stephanie held the first ACTHA rides in PA in 2014, and now with additional PA ride hosts getting involved there are more opportunities to find events in PA and on the east coast. For PA residents interested in learning more about this affiliate chapter of the AHA please visit www.paha.org.
