ACTHA ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS ARE OPEN TO APPROVED COMPETITIVE TRAIL ORGANIZATION PARTNERS

PFHA is partnering with ACTHA to provide even more opportunities for Paso Finos & their riders. You can now earn awards through ACTHA by participating in PFHA events.

Also, ACTHA would like to extend an invitation to PFHA members for a free trial membership with ACTHA. You can contact Stephanie Rivers at [email protected] to get started!

Here's a bit of info about the program:

The American Competitive Trail Horse Association (ACTHA) is pleased to announce a new program to further recognize the great American trail horse. In line with the motto "A job for every horse," ACTHA’s new Competitive Trail Organization Partnership program is a way to keep even more horses employed and out of dire circumstances. Beginning June 1, as an ACTHA member, your horse can earn points wherever they compete! Regardless if ridden at an ACTHA event or with another organization, horses can accumulate points in the Achievement Awards Program that stay with them for life. Now you can combine the points earned at ACTHA rides with those earned from other organizations that host competitive trail riding or obstacles. This means your endurance ride, or trail class in an arena will count towards your next Achievement Award.

To recommend an organization to be included in this program please contact [email protected] for consideration.
