Paint World GamesGet involved with Paint World Games
As 2008 is an Olympic year, it is especially fitting that it also marks the third international Youth competition, the Paint World Games. This competition, to be held Thursday, June 26 and sponsored by Purina Mills, will feature Youth representing their country in four divisions: trail, showmanship, horsemanship and reining.
Teams will be assigned horses at the show and have a limited, supervised amount of time to work with their horses before competition begins.
This program runs entirely off of donations from generous APHA members and sponsors. If you would like to get involved in a worthwhile program that fosters good international relations at the Youth level, please let us know. Providing horses for the competition, donating money and offering free farm tours for the visiting teams are all ways to become involved.
For more information,visit aphaworldshow.com, or contact the Director of Youth Activities at (817) 834-2742, extension 248
