For six decades, the Connecticut Morgan Horse Show has been thrilling the Morgan Horse community. In addition to planning our 60th Edition Horse Show, we have been hard at work planning a yearlong 60th-anniversary celebration full of new and exciting events!

Virtual Dog Show: We all know horse people love their dogs - and we want to see your dog at it’s best! You do not need to be a member to participate. We’ll be offering some fun prizes and bragging rights to the winner in each division. We have adult and youth divisions - for live dogs and stuffed animals (youth only). There is also a trick or agility class. Information and entry form: https://bit.ly/VirtualDogShow. All entries are due by June 22nd.

You do not need to be a member of our club to participate in any of these virtual events and we encourage you to become involved and enjoy your horse.

Connecticut Morgan Horse Association members who have access to their horses should sign up for Morgan Time. The fee is $5 and you track the time spent with your horse from May through October. Morgan Time participants with the most hours receive a year-end award and there are cumulative awards when you reach milestones.

We will be announcing other programs throughout the year. Connecticut Morgan Horse Association has served our members for over 60 years and are pleased to bring these new events to our members and other equestrians. Visit ctmorgans.org or our Facebook and Instagram pages for more information.
