Thank you for visting this page!  NTASHA relies on the generous support of sponsors to put on the annual Fall Classic Horse Show, and this year we are taking on the UPHA and futurity classes from the Texas State Fair Horse Show, and trying to take the show to a whole new level.  As a not-for-profit organization, we don't have a service to sell that makes a profit, other than to supplement our base account with fundraisers so that we have a cushion and a starting point to pay for the show and any other Saddlebred promotional events that come up throughout the year.  As much as we try to keep the costs to exhibitors low, the temporary barn alone costs us $80 per stall, with no refund for unused stalls!  This is before renting the facility and paying the officials or buying the awards. So...thank you for helping us to keep the show going, whether you sponsor a small amount, or volunteer to do an hour or two of work, we really appreciate it!  We especially would LOVE help in soliciting sponsorhsips, and we think that there are plenty of good reasons a local company might want to pledge their support.

Thank you for considering being a sponsor of the NTASHA-UPHA Fall Classic Horse Show in Las Colinas.  This annual event brings in exhibitors with their friends and families as well as equine professionals from across Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma.  Several hundred people from the upper- and upper-middle income demographic will be spending October 6th through the 10th at our horse show and surrounding hotels and restaurants.  Our show was designed to foster the growth of the American Saddlebred Horse industry, but also caters to the owners of Tennessee Walking Horses and other laterally-gaited breeds.  We offer many classes for young riders, but also hold the Texas State Futurities for both breeds, performance classes, and a host of other activities.  This year we will be partnering with 6 different charities, with each one having a session of the show to carry the flags, man a booth, and give a presentation about their organization.  We anticipate bringing in more of the local community for these events.

Our sponsors will be recognized in the following ways:

•Class sponsors:
oQualifiers $25---------------------Sponsor’s name will be announced at the end of the class.
oChampionship $50---------------Sponsor’s name will be announced at the end of the class.
