Show guide

RegionXNation allows you to enter your model's information and the site generates printable tags for your horses. This is a quick way to make leg tags, and can be more readable for judges rather than handwritten tags. Check with each show prior to using printed tags though, as some require handwritten tags or no tags at all. 

Paper documentation for models is expensive to re-print constantly. Place documents (COAs, Breed/Perf. Documentation, NAN Cards, Ribbons, etc.) in plastic sleeves in a binder to protect them from damage. 

This is a pdf document available from NAMHSA. This document lists breeds and their classifications, such as horse breeds that should show under the European Draft division vs. horse breeds that should show under the American Draft division. This is also a great list of horse breeds for general reference as well. 

Fill out your NAN cards ASAP! I fill my cards out the second I pull my model from the ring. This will save so many headaches when you get home and have a stack of NAN cards with no names on them, and you are left to work backwards to fill them out. 

Keep a binder with each model's information and documents. This is so helpful when you start showing frequently. 

Show hosts are often very easy to find and happy to help answer questions that may arise on the day of the show. Always check your show packet if possible, but a show host (or even a judge if they are not busy) might be able to answer any questions.
