Horses earn points towards achievement awards so long as the horse is ridden by an ACTHA member in approved divisions (masters, open, pleasure, junior or comparable divisions).

Points stay with the horse throughout its lifetime, regardless of the owner’s membership status or change in ownership of the horse.

ACTHA recognizes and embraces the efforts of every competitive trail organization and that they play a vital role in the success of our mission. In keeping with our mission, as well as every equine organization’s shared responsibility to our equine friends, beginning June 1, 2015, ACTHA will recognize other organizations competitive trail challenges and arena challenges (or comparable events) to count towards ACTHA Achievement Awards. Points must be earned while the horse and rider are registered and active members of ACTHA.
