ABRA APPROVED AS AN ASSOCIATION
MARKETING ALLIANCE WITH AQHA
As reported in the July/August issue of  The Canter Lope Post,
AQHA has included ABRA in their Association marketing
Alliance.  
How does this affect you as an ABRA exhibitor?  If your horse
is AQHA registered, and you exhibit in ABRA approved shows,
any points earned in halter and performance will be recorded
annually on your AQHA show records.
