Youth& US National Award Programs
ATARHA provides awards for our Trail and Ranch classes at National shows with the assistance of generous sponsors .
Youth and US National Awards
A full Top Ten in the JTR and JOTR Trail and Ranch Classes at Youth Nationals receive $20 gift certificates from Nymeyers which can be used at the Youth or US National Championship show or on line. Any amount not spent is carried forward.
At The US National show Amateur Trail and Ranch exhibitors are awarded Champion, Reserve Champion, and full Top Ten buckles and Open Classes get Champion and Reserve Champion awards. English Trail classes may get awards other than Western buckles.
Youth classes are $200 per class. Amateur awards for US Nationals are $100 each. A full class is $1000 and includes first choice of classes as well as the Champion and Reserve buckles. Half a class is $500 and includes choice of available classes and a Champion or Reserve buckle. If the sponsor wants the money spread through various classes they will still get the corresponding Championship/Reserve Championship buckles. Open awards are for Champion and Reserve Champion and are $125/ award or $225 for both awards in a class.
Awards may be paid for using a QR code for Venmo (bank or credit card), Pay pal (with a 3% convenience fee) or by check. Regardless of method notation must be made that the funds are for Youth or US national awards. For information for youth contact Susan Lallo or Karlan Downing.
