2021 has started strong
We also announced big news about our 2021 National Show – which will be held September 27-October 2 , 2021 at the Tennessee Miller Coliseum . For those that have not attended an event at the Miller Coliseum – it offers an air-conditioned arena with excellent footing and a large covered warm up arena . There are 500 10x10 stalls with easily accessible water and electrical outlets as well as 117 camper spots with both water and electricity . We are very excited about this move for our organization and our National Show .
After the annual meeting we held our Virtual awards banquet with 64 high point categories ; a Youth Achievement Award ; Overall Rail Horse of the Year ; Overall Versatility Horse of the Year and the Overall Horse of the Year .
In 2021 , NWHA is proud to announce we will host a Virtual Dressage Show
Series . Details are listed on the Dressage tab at nwha . com – submission deadlines for the next 2 shows in the spring series are April 3 and May 8 .
2021 has started strong – with significant membership and event growth – and it ’ s only the beginning . Our sustained , strong financial performance backed by steady growth throughout the previous year continues to advance NWHA forward .
We have a few extra additions planned for 2021 , with a new National Show website up and under development , a new NWHA News Editor , Laura Cooper ( welcome Laura ), a custom NWHA merchandise by Novel Thread , the creation of a Dressage Committee and HOY fees removed .
I look forward to what 2021 has in store for our organization !
