In a conference call meeting of the ApHC Board of Directors October 3, 2006, a motion was passed to establish an approval process and reduced fees for Appaloosa shows at state fairs and other “major” livestock shows i.e., National Western Stock Show, Houston Livestock Show, etc.

All major livestock shows and state fairs that meet eligibility requirements as determined by the ApHC based upon the size, scope and marketing potential of the show or fair will be allowed one double-judged, double-pointed show per year. The “show” is defined as an eligible livestock show or state fair at which a maximum of two judges work independently, either concurrently or on different days. Show management will collect regular point and show approval fees, but show management will not be required to collect or remit double point fees, and will not be required to pay double the approval fees. This rule will go into effect January 1, 2007. If you have questions, please contact the ApHC Show Department.
