AQHA Trail FREQUENT RIDER CARD
As a way to encourage recreational riders and recognize those participants who attend more than one trail ride a year, AQHA has introduced the Frequent Rider Card-a Passport to be presented at each ride attended. With the Passport, AQHA members can earn awards by attending numerous AQHA trail rides in one season.
Awards will be given in five-ride increments. All Ride participants who attend an event in 2005 will be entered in a random drawing where three lucky participants will receive either a grand prize of a recreation vacation for two, a new saddle provided by AQHA Corporate Partner Tex Tan or a $100 gift certificate to Quarter Horse Outfitters. The rider who attends the most trail rides during the 2005 Ride season also will receive a Tex Tan saddle.(If there's a tie for the award, it will be broken randomly.) |
