Quarter Horse Registration
August 1, 2007
ATTENTION QUARTER HORSE HUNTER UNDER SADDLE COMPETITORS
As we approach the 1st Annual CHSA Finals we are very excited with the turnout exhibited in our various divisions. It appears that the Quarter Horse Hunter Under Saddle division may have enough qualifiers to have this division compete at this year’s Finals in September.
As you know, it is stated in the CHSA Rule Book that the Quarter Horse Hunter Under Saddle classes are open to horses registered with the American Quarter Horse Association and are to be shown under their full registered names with papers available for examination at anytime.
Would you please submit a copy of your horse’s AQHA registration papers for the CHSA files by August 9, 2007.
These papers may be faxed to:
George Jensen, Membership Chairman at 203-272-0142
George Jensen, Membership Chairman
195 Wildwood Drive
Cheshire, CT 06410
For your convenience, those of you who will be showing at Windcrest Farm or End of Hunt Farm this weekend, you may turn the copies of your papers in to me as I will be the steward at these shows.
We appreciate your cooperation.
