ime to load your horses and gather at Heritage Park in Chilliwack for the 2014 Canadian National Andalusian & Lusitano Show and Fiesta! 2014 marks the Pacific Association of the Andalusian & Lusitano Horse’s (PAALH’s) 11th annual show to celebrate our beloved horses. PAALH is once again offering a substantial variety of both purebred and partbred classes for Anadalusians/Lusitanos as well as All Breed classes for anyone with any breed of horse to enjoy. These non-National All Breed classes include English Pleasure, Hunt Seat, Working Equitation, Western Pleasure, Reining, Driving, Doma Vaquera, both English and Western Dressage, and more. NEW for 2014 are classes for purebred and partbred Friesian Horses! These are non-National classes in various disciplines, so bring out your pure/part Friesians and come enjoy this unique venue created especially for Baroque horse lovers. PAALH offers a Youth Scholarship to one lucky youth member in the form of a $500 show credit for The Canadian National Show. Entries are judged on their current year school grades and an essay. There is also a stall decorating contest for those youth members with a flair for ‘interior design’. Of course, our show wouldn’t be complete without the
HCBC 2010 BUSINESS OF THE YEAR
“Fiesta of the Royal Horse” on Saturday, July 19, at 7 pm. The Fiesta features exhibitions and demonstrations that successfully highlight the talent and versatility of these wonderful horses. Every year, PAALH ‘live-auctions’ a horse at the Fiesta and, this year’s horse is VA Centurion, a PUREBRED Andalusian yearling colt generously donated by Anne Starr and Brian Rehwald of Valhalla Andalusians in Crescent Valley, BC. Here is an excellent opportunity to take home your future champion and dream horse! Through fundraising and sponsorship, the Fiesta has remained an “Admission by Donation” event and consistently attracts a full-house of spectators so arrive early for seating! The Canadian National Andalusian & Lusitano Show attracts competitors and spectators from all over Western Canada and the US Pacific Northwest. Our show offers something for every exhibitor – from Walk-Trot classes for first time competitors to Working Equitation and everything in between. And now, with the addition of All Breed and Friesian Horse classes, it’s the perfect place to showcase your horse!
