The Greater Baytown Quarter Horse Association is based in Baytown, TX, approximately 25 miles due east of Houston. We are finally able to announce our show dates for the 2008 season. We will be hosting two show dates this year, June 21st and July 19th. The shows will be Double Judged and part of a 2-Show Series. The Showbill is now available and the Awards for the June 21st show are posted for your viewing pleasure. In addition we are giving away $650.00 for Series Hi-Point across all four age groups.

We at GBQHA believe that you should have fun at our shows, so we do not require that any of the participants do any "work" while showing. We have a great bunch of volunteers that graciously donate their time and labor to help make the show run smoothly. This way you can concentrate on being the best that you can be.

You can save time by printing and filling out the Entry Forms prior to arrival. If possible, we prefer that you print the form in color as this helps us categorize your entry at the show. Entry forms are in Adobe .pdf format. If you have any questions, please contact one of the Board Members.

As usual, all AQHA rules apply at our shows. In addition, we have an internal set of rules pertaining to GBQHA shows. You can access both the GBQHA and AQHA Rules here.  There has been a change in the rules regarding series award eligibility, please read. Once the Showbill has been finalized you can view and print it.

We now have a News page to keep y'all updated on the latest news and the results of the past shows. Also, we are attempting to compile a list of email addresses of people that would like to receive the notifications by email. This would greatly reduce our costs of operating the shows. In addition, it can help us to send out notification in the event that we have to re-schedule, postpone or cancel a coming show. If you would like to receive notifications by email, send an email to gbqha@gbqha.com with your full name and a request to be added to the list. We promise these emails will be kept confidential and will not be used for any purpose other than GBQHA business. One other note, if you are not currently on our email or mailing list and would like to be added, email us your FULL name and mailing address and we will add you. This is for your own protection to prevent spammers from joining our group.

One note on the egroup: many Internet Service Providers (ISP's) are routinely filtering emails from yahoogroups. You must specifically request that these emails are allowed to be delivered to you or you will not receive them. You will need to check with your ISP and find out if they filter them and how to allow the emails through.

We are always in need of sponsors to help us with the operating costs of the show. If anyone would like to sponsor the classes or if you know of a sponsor that would like to help, please contact one of our Board Members.
