Details: April 23, 2020; By SARA CAVANAGH

HARRISBURG, Pa.--Keep your Chin Up, America!

Harrisburg While on the job in our “new” home offices, we are hard at work planning the 75th Pennsylvania National Horse Show, scheduled for Oct. 8 - 17th.

Because of the many revisions to ALL of our lives and jobs from the recent pandemic, here are a few answers to some questions you may have about PNHS.

WHEN WILL THE PRIZE LIST BE ISSUED?

We are on schedule to publish the Prize List by July 1st – its normal publication date.

It will be posted on our website at that time, and we will have a small, limited amount of hard-copies available.

WILL THE QUALIFYING PROCEDURES CHANGE?

As a US Equestrian Federation (USEF) licensed competition, PNHS will follow the rules and schedule set forth by the USEF.

At this time, all USEF licensed competitions are suspended through May 3, 2020.

WILL WE NEED ANY SPECIAL HEALTH REQUIREMENTS FOR OUR HORSES?

At this time, there will be no additional or modified requirements. Unless otherwise noted, we will follow a similar protocol as we had in 2019.

WILL VENDORS STILL BE ATTENDING?

ABSOLUTELY! We encourage any and all Vendors to take part in our historic Show!

To support our Vendors during this complex time, we have extended the dates for deposits to July 1, but we encourage contracts to be submitted as soon as possible.

First time vendors may submit an Application, available at www.PAnational.org, under the SHOPPING tab.
