RHSF Announces One Hundred Grand Program

October 27, 2009 Off By Roberta Johnston

The Reining Horse Sports Foundation (RHSF) mission is to develop and enhance the sport of Reining worldwide through its five core programs: NRHA Hall of Fame, Crisis Fund, Research, Development & Education, Youth Programs and International Development. With the 2010 AlltechR FEI World Equestrian Games approaching next September, RHSF has a unique opportunity for you to champion its involvement in the Games and aid its efforts to bring Reining to an unprecedented audience. Contribute to the RHSF One Hundred Grand Program, join the road to the Games and enjoy special benefits and recognition.

Your donation will help make possible a comprehensive equine research program that will strengthen our industry, propel us toward the Olympic dream, help provide more than $50,000 annually in NRHyA scholarships and grow the RHSF endowment to $2 million. Finally, the success of the Crisis Fund depends on the generosity of donors.

RHSF is ready to lead the way to the 2010 Games with you as an One Hundred Grand Donor. Donate prior to the 2009 NRHA Futurity & AdequanR North American Affiliate Championship Show and receive many fringe benefits such as reserved parking at the 2009 NRHA Futurity & AdequanR North American Affiliate Championship Show, special recognition during one of the NRHA Futurity finals performances and in the NRHA Reiner, and entry into the prestigious One Hundred Grand Lounge. And most importantly, you will receive the satisfaction of knowing you are supporting the sport of Reining worldwide! Contact Krissy Colbath at 405-946-7400 or rhsf@nrha com to get involved today!

The National Reining Horse Association, with its international headquarters in Oklahoma City, recognizes and promotes the sport of Reining. This western form of riding is one of the fastest-growing disciplines in the world and showcases its best athletes during the NRHA Futurity & AdequanR North American Affiliate Championship Show. It’s the most elite reining event in the world and includes three NRHA/Markel Insurance Horse Sales, the FEI World Reining Masters, the 4R Performance Horses Celebrity Slide benefiting Make-A-Wish of OklahomaR, an Intercollegiate Judging Contest, a western trade show and much more. During its 10-day run, the show contributes more than $44 million to the overall Oklahoma City economy. Get more information on this event and NRHA at www.nrha.com .
