It is each paid member's responsibility to obtain a copy of these rules:
Owner of horse must be a member of APHC in order for club points to count toward year end awards. In Amateur, Novice Amateur and Youth Classes, owner/exhibitor must be member of APHC and meet ownership requirements of APHA and year end awards will be based on one horse, one rider with the exception of Leadline and Walk/Trot (which points are kept with the exhibitor).
To qualify for year end awards, you must show over one half of the judges of the current year (except weanling classes and 2 yr. old) and work a total of 4.0 hours at any APHC show during the year. In lieu of work hours, a member may pay $100.00, payable at any time during the show year, but in no event later than the last show date of the season. Points for each exhibitor/horse will be compiled after each show and current standings/work hours kept in a binder located at the show secretary's desk. It is recommended each owner/exhibitor periodically check their standing/work hours to alleviate any possible confusion at year end.
To qualify for year end awards, you must attend one (1) APHC meeting during the show season (]anuary 1 thru last show date).
Points will be awarded by the number of entries in the class as shown on the judge's card.
Awards: Class awards and Division awards will be given with emphasis being placed on Class awards in accordance and dependent upon the financial condition of the club at that time. The number and type of awards will be determined by the awards committee
*Halter points will be affected if a stallion is gelded during the show season but performance points will not be affected.
**If a horse is sold during the show season, Open points will continue as long as there is an existing or new membership of owner.
***If a horse becomes sick or injured, evidenced by a vet certificate, or is sold and has not shown under over half of the judges, the points will stand as is.
****If classes are combined at the show, they will be separated for club points.
*****Additional awards may be given at the discretion of the awards committee.
