Buckeye Walking Horse Association


Dear Prospective Member
The Buckeye Walking Horse Association is the oldest  walking horse club in Ohio. We are a social club with
monthly meeting except for August (due to the Celebration) and December.  Our club currently hosts three
horse shows and a horse sale.

All our shows have a mixture of pleasure, Versatility, and padded horse classes. We also include a few
spotted and racking horse classes, country pleasure as well as easy gait. Our members support all facets of
the breed.

The club supports a High Point Award Program where horses are nominated for a category or categories by
paying a nomination fee. Points are awarded for placement at shows and tallied over the course of the show
season. Winners receive awards at our year end (January) high point banquet. You must be a club member
to participate in the awards program, but you don’t have to be a member to show at our shows.

Our show in October, The Ohio Celebration hosts the Ohio Regional Futurity. The nominations for the futurity
are separate from the high point award program and follow the rules and regulations established by the
TWHBEA.
Our contact for the futurity is
Merrie Ellen Polch.
The show circuit in this area is a combination of local community sponsored shows with up to five walking
horse classes (usually all pleasure) and all walking horse shows. Our newsletter tries to list contact people for
the shows but we cannot always enclose a show bill.  
If you need further information don’t hesitate to call or write.
