Zone high-point trophies are awarded annually at APHA zone shows around the country, and APHA is excited to celebrate our 2014 trophy recipients. The exclusive trophy features a Paint Horse sculpture designed by Marrita McMillian set on a decorative wooden base; each is personalized for the winner after the show and shipped directly to the horse owner in the Open and Solid Paint-Bred divisions and to the exhibitor in Amateur and Youth divisions.
Up to four trophies are awarded to each zone show based on the show’s high-point rules, one in each of the following divisions: Open, Amateur, Youth & Solid Paint-Bred. In order to be eligible for the Open or Solid Paint-Bred divisions, the owner must be a current member of APHA and reside in the zone. For the Youth and Amateur divisions, the exhibitor must be a current member of APHA and reside in the zone.

This program is another great reason to participate in your zone show. Check out the list of upcoming APHA-approved events online at aphaonline.org and keep an eye on apha.com for future announcements about 2015 Paint Horse Championships, which take place in conjunction with participating zone shows.
