Hunt Horse Complex Raleigh, NC Dear Members, Friends, Exhibitors and Supporters, It is with so much excitement and pleasure that the North Carolina Hunter Jumper Association Board of Directors and Annual Horse Show Committee welcomes you to the 38th NCHJA Annual Horse Show! The Annual Show is proud to celebrate our membership, recognizing not only the accomplishment of riders, trainers, owners and horses over the past year but also of the many struggles our industry and families have endured more recently. Throughout the planning of this show we did not know if we would be able to gather together at all and while we continued to hope for the best case scenario, we also cautiously made provisions for a limited show experience or none whatsoever. We hope this years show will be a chance for us all to celebrate being together (6 feet apart), enjoying the sport and the horses we love. Over the past 38 years this horse show has seen many changes but the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for social distancing are definitely one of our greatest challenges to date. We hope you will join us in addressing the need to keep our staff, competitors, family and friends safe and healthy and please follow the guidelines set forth. The Annual Show has always strived to go above and beyond with making our competitors feel welcome. Please know that while our social gatherings are just not possible this year, we hope you will still enjoy the hospitality we are able to extend. The horse show committee has put much thought into the best and safest way to conduct each event. Our schedule is much the same as years past and we hope you will enjoy all of the special events from the National Hunter Derby on Thursday evening to the USHJA Pony Derby on Sunday morning. We are most grateful for your support of the Annual Show and for the health and wellbeing of all our friends and families, Wishing you a warm welcome!
