HALF PRICE STALLS FOR YOUTH:

It's time to gear up and get ready for our first show of the year.

OPtHA is offering a special incentive for youth riders - Youth will only pay 1/2 price for their stall.

(Note: Tack stalls not included in this offer.)

This year, we are also offering classes for non-pinto’s, so no matter what color, style, breed, or gender - WE HAVE A CLASS FOR YOU!! For the all breed classes, your horses do not have to be registered with any association and you only have one judge for the all breed classes. These classes are eligible for year end high point awards, so come on out and join us showing! You must become a member of Oklahoma Pinto in order to be eligible for the awards. A current coggins is required to show.

A reminder for those that have not paid their membership. Your year end points start on payment. So don’t miss out.

Invite your friends that don’t have spotted horses, they can join in the fun……..  

~~ YOUTH SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM ~~

Oklahoma Pinto Horse Association (OPtHA) is looking for sponsors to assist their youth organization by making it more affordable so their families can keep them showing.  The OPtHA is a non-profit organization and our Certificate of Incorporation for Non-Profit Number is 904480001.  The funds would be used for the scholarship fund and to assist all youth 18 and under to have free stalls at the club shows.  OPtHA is an organization that is committed to supporting youth activities and it is important that we help all the youth who want to participate in a more affordable manner.  This environment teaches the youth to work hard to succeed while they learn sportsmanship, integrity and individual accomplishments. 

This proposal is a three year program, beginning in 2009 to try and raise a total of $25,000.  This would allow 2 scholarships a year for $1,000 each for 3 years for a total of $6,000.  The balance will pay for youth stalls over a 3 year period.  The plan is broken down as: First Year use 150 stalls, Second Year use 250 stalls, Third Year use 375 stalls, for a total of 775 stalls.

Any balance remaining each year will be put into a Certificate Of Deposit until the next year.
