• Increase participation at Morgan competitions;

• Provide a FREE program as an AMHA membership benefit;

• Provide a fun, exciting venue for awards presentation at AMHA's annual convention;

• Provide additional advertising opportunities for The Morgan Horse magazine; and

• Foster good will and sportsmanship!
