Letter from the PFHA PresidentWelcome to Memphis and the Paso Fino Horse Association’s 39th Annual Grand National Championship Show and Expo. We are excited to have you join us, as we bring the finest of our breed together to demonstrate their talents and compete at the National level. There is no doubt that you will see many of the world’s best Pleasure, Performance, and Fino show horses here.

In addition to the traditional show, recreational riders are bringing their horses to participate in trail events, navigate obstacle courses, play soccer, and join a Cowboy Mounted Shooting competition. Our youth will demonstrate equestrian skills as they prepare to represent the United States in the 2012 youth Mundial, a world class event. Spectators will witness the remarkable beauty, versatility, and exciting gait of these amazing Pasos as this week’s numerous activities unfold.

Norman Timbs and his wife, Debbie, have generously given their time and effort to make the best of Memphis available for our show. With their help, Carmen Micheletti, Chairperson of the National Show Committee, and her committee attended to every detail imaginable. While Carmen personally moved show equipment from Perry, GA, she negotiated with top food and merchandise vendors and selected outstanding entertainers for your enjoyment. We are indebted to them and the Committee for endless hours spent for our mutual benefit.

We hope you enjoy the camaraderie of connecting with friends, both old and new. When away from the showground, take in the sights, sounds, and delicious amenities of this world class town.

Memphis, famous as the home of the blues, welcomes you for your added enjoyment.

Sincerely,

PFHA President

HistoryIn 1972, a progressive group of men whose aim was toactively promote the American Paso Fino Horse met togetherto form the Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association, Inc.This Association, which came to be known as PFOBA, was amembership-governed, non-profit organization. The name ofthe Association has since been changed to the Paso Fino Horse Association, Inc.

The Affairs of the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA) aremanaged by officers elected by the entire membership anddirectors from each of the regional membership groups. Atpresent, there are 24 regional membership groups including 21 groups in the United States, one in Colombia, one in Canada,and one in Europe.

During the first year of activity, the PFHA sponsored lessthan a dozen Paso Fino shows. In comparison, during 2011,there were 110 regional shows throughout the United Statesand Canada consisting of All-Paso (AP), All-Paso and UnitedStates Equestrian Federation (AP/USEF), Local, All-Breed, andAll-Breed USEF shows. Entries have steadily increased eachyear. As of August 2011, PFHA membership was 5,121, with

registered horses in excess of 56,000.

The PFHA conducts training and judging clinics, stewardseminars, publishes a membership magazine-Paso Fino HorseWorld, and provides educational materials as well as a list of owners and breeders to prospective buyers. The PFHA also promotes programs such as Pasos for Pleasure, Geldings for Gold, Ticket to Ride, Amateur Owner, Youth programs, and more. In addition, it provides schedules for upcoming trail, pleasure, endurance, and competitive rides.

Initially headquartered in Bowling Green, FL since July 1984,the PFHA moved its headquarters in January 1995 to historic Plant City, FL. In the spring of 2010, the Association moved once again to the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky.

Secretary

Lee VuLgariS After a lifetime of business ownership and serving as President of his industry’s association, Lee retired and has had time to pursue a childhood dream of riding horses. Prior to selling his manufacturing and construction businesses, his riding experiences were limited to infrequent visits to a local dude ranch.

With lessons on Morgans and Quarter Horses and a history of back surgery, Lee often found these rides painfully unpleasant. Close to giving up this dream, he heard about Paso Finos’ smooth gait. He bought his first Paso at an auction, and his love affair with the breed began. Lee started as a recreational rider but became a multi-purpose rider when he migrated to the show ring on this new, talented colt.

Twelve years later, Lee and his wife, Margaret, have both trail and show horses and a breeding program with his Grand National Champion stallion, Zacarias Dos. Lee is well known in Massachusetts for riding his “tap-dancing” gelding, when promoting the breed in various town parades.

Now, as President of the PFHA, Lee combines his years of experience in business, national association management, and town fiscal management with his enthusiasm for the Paso Fino. His goal is to ensure that the PFHA thrives and that its activities for competitors, recreational riders, and audiences are “not-to-be-missed” events.

DonaLD Schanche has been involved with horses for over forty years. He has owned, ridden, shown, and judged numerous breeds, including Road Horses, Quarter Horses, Arabians, Morgans, and of course, Paso Finos. He has served in the United States Army Special Forces and left the service in 1967.

In 1980, he co-founded his own business, MIR, Inc., which celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 2005 and continues to grow with 11 locations throughout the United States. He currently serves as Chairman of the Board. Don is a native of St. Louis and is currently a resident of Marco Island, Florida. He now splits his time between these two locations.

Peggy Tanner is a native of Oklahoma and lives in a town just south of Tulsa, in Bixby. She has been involved with Paso Finos since 1997, when she met Hugh and Millie Roberts at a horse show in Tulsa and truly fell in love with a gelding and the breed.

Peggy is an Amateur Owner with 18 Paso Finos. At the Bixby facility, she breeds Paso Finos and runs a boarding stable. Paradise Farm offers frequent clinics at the Bixby facility to promote the Paso Fino and training techniques for Amateur Owners and trail riders. She has served as President of the High Plains region for four years and has held numerous other positions within the region. She has chaired multiple region level shows as well. She has also served as President of the Southwestern region. At the national level she has served on the Amateur

Owner, Personnel, and Computer Committees. Peggy is currently serving as Treasurer for her second term.

For the past 30 plus years Peggy has been involved in her family-owned business, McElroy Manufacturing. Peggy, along with her sister and brother, are owners of the company and their spouses are all involved in the business as well. McElroy is an original equipment manufacturer of specialty equipment. The company offers machinery that welds polyethylene pipe as well as finned tube machinery for the air cooled heat exchanger industry. Peggy is responsible for the Fin Tube Division and selection and start up of international offices, which requires extensive travel throughout the world. The company remains privately held and has been in business for over 57 years.

Janice Meyer has been involved with breeding, training and showing Paso Fino horses since 1980. She and her husband, Rick, own and operate Royal Oak Ranch in the St. Louis area, which specializes in Paso Fino Youth and Amateur Owner horses and riders. She was a licensed PFHA Steward for years and has also managed many regional shows. Janice has volunteered her time for the PFHA National Championship Shows as Chair of the Corporate & Farm Sponsors in 2006, 2007, and 2009. She also served on the Marketing Committee for several years.

As a professional Show Secretary with over 25 years experience, Janice has traveled all over the country. “Getting to know all our wonderful members is the best part of being a show secretary! I love helping them have fun with their Paso Finos.”

Janice currently spends her “spare time” competing in Cowboy Mounted Shooting and is the reigning 2010 National SL2 Champion with a repeat victory of the 2009 National SL2 Championship. Janice is the proud mother of three wonderful children and grandmother of two exceptional boys – with another grandchild on the way due September 25th!

norMan TiMbS is an avid Paso Fino fan, dedicated to breeding, raising, showing, and promoting this fabulous breed. Norman has been riding gaited horses since age 13, but wasn’t introduced to the Paso Fino until adulthood. In 1999, he began studying the breed and visiting farms and breeders. His enthusiasm for this horse quickly grew into a passion to breed and promote the Paso Fino. Most rewarding has been Norman’s success in the show ring with his own offspring.

He and his wife, Debbie, live in Memphis, Tennessee, and jointly care for their 20-acre farm, 30+ horses, and several boarders. En-trepreneurial ventures of Norman’s include

Dixie Van Conversions, where he did van designs for Jimmy Buffet and The O’Jays and Action Architectural, which he has owned for over 20 years. Norman is an ardent antique car collector and enjoys touring in his 1933 Plymouth Roadster on fine days.

Norman is currently president of the TVPFHA and served as Show Chairman for their regional show in April. In past years, he has served on the national Marketing Committee and also the Rules Committee. Norman looks forward to an exciting and fun-filled National Show in Memphis and wishes all exhibitors the best of luck in the show arena.

robin raTLiff has a history in the Paso Fino breed that dates back over 40 years, and she has made her mark in the equine world as a professional Paso Fino trainer and an active member of PFHA. She is a life member and was a member of the preceding organizations, PFOBA and APF. In 2005 and again in 2007, Robin was elected President of PFHA. Previous to that, she was President and Board Delegate for the North Florida (formerly Everglades) PFHA Region. She has also served on numerous national committees including the Executive, Judges and Stewards, Professional Trainers/Horsemen, Youth, Rules, and Planning Committees. Robin is a Senior Certified Judge and has held a judge’s card since 1973.

She is the youngest person to have received her judge’s card at the age of 17 and may currently be the longest continuously standing judge in the breed. She is also a USEF recorded judge.

In the show ring, Robin has earned over 150 Grand National, Reserve Grand National, and National Championships, and she is one of only a handful of members who has shown in every PFHA Grand National Championship Show, totaling 38, as of 2010. In 1989, Robin was voted by her peers to receive the second Paso Fino Trainer of the Year Award. Possibly, though, her most prestigious award to date was being named one of seven USA-E Equestrians of Honor in 2002 receiving the C.J. “June” Cronan Trophy.

As a past Delegate and President of Florida PFHA, he is proud of their reputation

for pioneering innovative ideas to promote Paso Fino horses nationally and internationally. Together with his fellow members of the Florida Region Board, he played an influential role in bringing the first Confepaso World Cup Show to the United States in 1999. He likes creating opportunities for all members who like to show their horses at an international level. He devotes as much of his non-professional time as possible to his family and the Paso Fino horse.

Since becoming an employee of the PFHA just over a year ago, Shanon has ridden her first Paso Fino, connected with many of the PFHA members, and written a series of articles for the PFHW magazine.

MariLyn norTon After helping her local horse club as a volunteer in the show office, Marilyn started Show Secretary Services in 1984. An avid horse lover from her youth, an Arabian horse owner for 25 years, and a secretary by trade, she incorporated this love into a business which keeps her literally in the midst of the horse world most of the year. Beginning with her local club shows in Central Illinois, Marilyn and her assistants now travel the country providing a friendly and efficient show office for exhibitors. Her current shows include: Arabian Horse Association Region 12, Arabian Horse Association Region 15, Arabian Horse Association Youth Nationals, the Paso Fino Grand National Championship Show, and the PMHA Morab National Championship and Futurity. Making the show office a friendly environment for exhibitors is her main goal! Marilyn was recipient of the 2007 USEF Top 10 Show Secretary of the Year Award.

Ring MastersrafaeL aMayaRafael De La Cruz Amaya was born in Habana, Cuba, but left Cuba at ten years old. Arriving in Miami in May 1969, he and his family were sent to Union City, New Jersey. Rafael attended Jersey City State College and received a degree in Commercial Design. After living there for twenty two years, he and his family moved back to Miami, where he now lives.

Rafael’s passion for horses started during his childhood in Cuba. He was introduced to the Paso Fino breed in 1991 and grew a passion for them. He was able to buy his first Paso Fino horse in 1992. Rafael’s love and admiration for the Paso Fino breed has kept him involved for many years. His younger brother, Jose Louis Amaya, was the first to become a Ring Master, but was unable to continue in the position when he took a new job. Taking over his spot in January 1997, Rafael was honored to work his first Spectrum as Ring Master in 1998 and the Mundial in 1999. This year will be his first year working at Nationals.

He is the manager of three horse shows, serves as ringmaster for several other horse shows, and is a USEF steward.

A Past President of the Michigan Juvenile Detention Association and retired Director of a 120-bed Juvenile Detention Center, Ron was raised on a dairy farm and has been involved with all breeds of horses from cutting to showing at National Championships. He enjoys watching and working with all types of horses and especially enjoys meeting the people working with their horses.

1. firST STage (f1): Horses will enter the ring and perform the required elements of the class as described in the PFHA Rules. This will include the opportunity to go over the sounding board as directed by the judges.

Judges may communicate with one another only through the ring master.

When the requirements of the class have been completed, the horses will line up. If there are fewer than seven (7) entries, the judges will go directly to the Second Stage. Any entry requesting to be excused prior to the line-up will be disqualified and not eligible for the championship.

Horses will be disqualified in accordance with PFHA Rules. In order to be disqualified, an entry must be noted on two of the three judges’ cards as disqualified. The announcer will notify exhibitors of disqualified horses. These entries will leave the ring and are not eligible for the championship.

If there are more than seven (7) horses in the class, each judge will select a maximum of eight (8) for further work offs. Entries appearing on at least two (2) of the judges’ cards will move on to the Second Stage. If fewer than seven (7) horses are listed on two (2) or more cards, then each judge will be asked to supply additional numbers until a minimum of seven (7) finalists have been selected to move on to the Second Stage.

All finalists will be asked to step forward in the line-up; the remaining horses will be retired from the ring. The horses retired at this time will be eligible for the championship. The finalists will move on to the Second Stage.

NOTE: Judges must refrain from talking between F1-F2.

2. SeconD STage (f2):If the judges have selected their finalists and no further work is required, the judges may place the class. If one of the judges is not ready to make the final placing, the judging will continue and the finalists will return to the rail. Through the ringmaster, the judges may call whatever procedures are appropriate based on the class specifications.

Any judge may request a work-off by providing the ring master with the back numbers and placing to be worked off. A work-off requires agreement by two of the three judges, or the position must be filled without it. A judge may excuse himself from a work-off by submitting his card to the ring master and returning to the judge’s lounge.

NOTE: Judges must refrain from talking until class is placed.

This year’s Grand National Show & Expo marks the first Obstacle Trail Challenge organized by the PFHA especially for recreational rider members and their registered Paso Finos. The event, open to youth and adults including professionals, offers competitive fun for all skill levels ranging from the novice to the more experienced horse and rider team. Each obstacle will have a judge who will award up to 20 points for each horse/rider team; 10 points for the horse and 10 points for the rider. Judges will be looking for a calm, willing, well-controlled, obedient, and brave horse. Riders should be balanced and not interfere with the horse. Awards will be presented to the top six highest combined obstacle scores and 7th place Honorable Mention will be recognized.

An OTC competitor has a set time limit to complete each single judged obstacle. If the obstacle was not completed, the horse & rider will receive a ‘0’ for that obstacle. A rider may voluntarily dismount from their horse at any time, but MUST remain mounted when moving forward. If a rider voluntarily dismounts within an obstacle boundary, unless specifically instructed to do so by a judge, that horse and rider team will receive a “0” score for that obstacle. A rider who falls off their horse is disqualified. A horse that falls will be disqualified. Any harsh use of bits, spurs, or reins will be penalized by the judges as they see fit. A trail horse needs the use of his head and neck for balance and eyesight, therefore, a soft use of the reins is encouraged.

A rider MUST NOT interfere with another contestant’s performance of an obstacle. A contestant that knowingly strays from the trail or

takes a short cut will be disqualified. When approaching another competitor with the intention of passing, a rider SHOULD slow to a walk and ask permission to pass on the left. Pass at a walk, resuming the preferred gait when at a safe distance.

Goals will consist of tall safety cones or plastic “barrel racing” drums which are placed approximately 20’ apart and a minimum of 20’ in from the ends of the arena. A cutting horse size arena, approximately 225’ x 100,’ is a good size for 6 players (2 teams) on the field. A referee/time keeper (either mounted or on foot) will oversee each match.

Play begins at mid-field with the opposing teams’ linesmen facing each other. Upon a signal from the referee, the players will attempt to gain control of the ball and play begins. When a team scores a goal, their linesmen must return to midfield and not challenge the ball until the defending team has advanced the ball to mid-field. If the ball goes behind the plane of the goal on a missed scoring opportunity, the offensive linesmen must retreat back to mid-field and either the defending goalie or the team’s linesmen are allowed to bring the ball back out to mid-field, UNOPPOSED, before players may begin challenging for control of the ball. The game clock continues to run.

The goalie may not pass mid-field. Horses may walk, corto, largo, lope, trot, or gallop while moving to other parts of the playing field, but must not go faster than a largo or trot while “dribbling” the ball, challenging for control of the ball, or in close contact with the ball. Any horse that kicks at another horse will be given a warning for a first offense, and upon a second offense will be sent to the



penalty area (behind their own goal) for a 60 second time out. Riders may not kick or touch the ball with any part of their body, unless such contact is non-intentional. Intentional violations of this rule will be penalized with a 30 second “time out” in the appropriate penalty area.

This year, we are introducing Cowboy Mounted Shooting (CMS) to the Paso Fino breed. Along with CMS clinics and question and answer sessions, we will have a competition for a National Championship title for Paso Fino horses. Each competitor must be a PFHA and a CMSA member riding a registered Paso Fino horse. Cowboy Mounted Shooting is a timed eques trian sporting event in which mounted competitors compete using two single action revolvers loaded with blank am munition to shoot 10 reactionary targets (balloons) while negotiating a specified course of fire.

All competitors shall be knowledgeable and proficient in the safe use of firearms. A Range Master will officiate the competition. Competitors are required to wear traditional, classic, recognizable Western Cowboy/Cowgirl style clothing and are encouraged to portray styles from the late 19th century. Only fixed-sight single-action revolvers of .45 Colt caliber, designed prior to 1898, or reproductions thereof, are allowed.

CMSA matches are scored according to elapsed time plus the total of any applicable penalties. The total sum of all of the stages determines placing. A five second penalty will be incurred for one of the following reasons: missed target, knocked over barrel, dropped gun, failure to holster, gun twirling, and knocking over a gate cone. A ten second penalty is incurred for failure to follow course of fire and loss of hat prior to engaging the course of fire. A 60 second penalty is incurred for a non-qualified run, including a competitor who becomes dismounted. Total final time for any ride shall equal no more than 60 sec onds. Any target that has been engaged and is broken by nature or unknown source shall be considered a hit if broken prior to crossing the timeline. If a competitor hits two targets with one shot they may use the remaining round to pick up any legal target they may have missed.



Adorned with the title “Smoothest Riding Horse in the World,” Paso Fino horses, which are already popular in Central and South America, are increasingly gaining the attention of American horse lovers and becoming the future for show and pleasure riders all over. Full of energy, drive, stamina, and gentle on the ground, the Paso Fino may very well be Ameri-ca’s best kept secret. Bred for good physical balance, the Paso Fino is quick, sure-footed, and very athletic. The Paso Fino movement is completely unique to the breed and although it may be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before—don’t write this breed off until you have ridden one.

Appearance and Conformation

The Paso Fino has a refined head with a straight profile in good proportion and alert, intelligent eyes that do not show excessive white. The neck is strong and supportive with a high carriage that smoothly slopes into the back. Legs are strong and well-defined with shorter cannons and longer forearms. The Paso Fino should be well-proportioned, conveying strength and power without extreme muscling. Hooves are durable and rarely shod. They can be registered in any equine color, with or without white markings. These horses are often defined by

their long, flowing mane and tail, and Paso Fino breeders take great care to keep them in naturally perfect condition.

The Spanish Tradition

The Paso Fino is the oldest true native breed of horse in the Western Hemisphere. The first appearance of these horses in America is credited to Christopher Columbus on his second voyage from Spain. They were believed to be a mixture of the Spanish Barb, Andalusian, and the smooth-gaited Span-ish Jennet. As more and more Spanish settlers arrived in the New World, descendents of these horses spread into Native American culture where they became prized for their fine gait. The Native Americans may have mixed this Spanish stock with their own breeds, including the Appaloosa, and even to this day some wild horses and mustangs have traces of Spanish heritage.

For nearly five hundred years, Paso Fino horses have been selectively bred in the Western hemisphere, most notably in Puerto Rico and Colombia. It wasn’t until the 1940’s when U.S. servicemen were stationed in Puerto Rico that this stun-

The Paso Fino Horse


PFHW-2011NatlShowProgB.indd 1 9/6/2011 4:24:14 PM

ning breed was discovered and imported into to the U.S. As the breed grew in popularity, Paso Finos from Colombia were also imported into the U.S.; the best of these Puerto Rican and Colombian bloodlines have mixed to create the American Paso Fino that we are so fond of today.

Smooth and Versatile

One of the most unique attributes of the Paso Fino breed is its natural gait. Horses can be trained to perform different gaits for show and competition, but the fact that these sought-after gaits are performed naturally and perfectly by the Paso Fino sets it apart. Many people who have a hard time mounting or riding a horse due to age, and those who have had back injuries, knee injuries, or have been told, “You won’t be able to ride again,” find themselves able to ride a Paso Fino when no other horse will do. It’s even been said that the ride is as good as going to the chiropractor!

The Paso Fino horse performs a smooth four-beat lateral gait at three varying speeds: Classic Fino, Paso Corto, and Paso Largo. In all speeds, the rider should appear virtually mo-tionless in the saddle. The Classic Fino gait is a movement involving a very rapid succession of footfalls that covers very little ground. This gait is used primarily for show purposes and is the most difficult to perform. In competition, any break from the gait into walking, trotting, or cantering is grounds for dis-qualification. The Paso Corto gait is a slightly more extended version executed at a higher speed and more comparable to

a trot; this is the gait used for activities such as trail riding, because it can naturally be maintained for long periods of time. The fastest gait is the Paso Largo. In this gait, the Paso Fino maintains the four-beat lateral step, but there is a much more distinct extension in the legs. The Paso Largo is most similar to a canter or slow gallop and can reach speeds up to thirty miles per hour.

The Paso Fino is also capable of executing other gaits natural to horses, including the flat walk and lope or canter. Willing and spirited under saddle, yet quiet and gentle at hand, the disposition of these horses lends to their versatility. They are used for endurance and trail competitions, Cowboy Mounted Shooting competitions, parades, drill teams, driving, team-penning, and so much more.

Elegant Attire

In the Paso Fino show ring, costume is used to entertain and pay respect to the Spanish heritage of the breed. The Of-ficial Paso Fino Show Costume requires a long-sleeved bolero jacket and riding pants that cover the boot. Riders must also wear a Spanish felt hat with a round flat crown and flat brim. A cummerbund is optional. In some classes, riders will wear an English/Plantation Style Show Costume that, similar to the Official Costume, also requires the long riding pants, jacket, and hat; however, the jacket can be exchanged for a vest, and the hat is typically cream or black and made of straw. Another type of show costume seen in the ring is the Western

Type Show Costume which consists of a Western hat, long-sleeved shirt, trousers, and Western boots along with chaps or chinks. In order to maintain the traditional sentimentality of the costume, glitter and sequins are not allowed. The Paso Fino performs to show off its crisp, clean gait, and the rider’s attire should reflect that.

A Breed Apart

Years of breeding and crossbreeding have given us the elegant, spirited, and agile American Paso Fino that we love so dearly today. Though the American Paso Fino is the melting pot of Puerto Rican and Colombian Paso Fino bloodlines, the heritage can still be traced in most instances, and some purists will advocate for one or the other.

Exceedingly proud of their home breed, Puerto Ricans refer to their Paso Finos as “Pure Puerto Rican Paso Finos” and also hold the claim that they were the first country to begin breed-ing and competing these horses.

Colombian Paso Fino horses come from the same heritage; however, unlike the American and Puerto Rican Paso Fino horses, the Colombian Paso Fino sometimes exhibits a diagonal gait instead of the lateral gait. The first registered importation of this breed was credited to a rancher that visited Colombia and brought several Paso Finos back to the US to work his cattle. The Paso Fino Horse Association does not register diagonal horses; however, classes are now being held for these horses at PFHA shows. The American Trote & Trocha Association maintains the registry for these diagonally-gaited Paso horses.

Another closely related breed to the Paso Fino is the Peruvian Paso horse. The Peruvian Paso is a different breed, though research does show a very close relation in descendents, even tracing both breeds back to a Spanish stock horse breed. A few important traits differ between the two breeds, including the wider build and longer stride of the Peruvian Paso. Both breeds exhibit a similar four-beat footfall, though they are executed differently. Unlike the Paso Fino, the Peruvian Paso performs the medium speed, ground covering “paso llano” gait which involves more upward lift of the legs and the “ter-mino” outward roll of the front legs.

PFHA Record

As the Paso Fino horse rocketed to popularity during the 50’s and 60’s, a need for an association to manage this breed be-came prevalent. In 1972, a group formed the first association, the Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association, which was a non-profit organization dedicated to organizing and recogniz-ing the Paso Fino breed. The association (known today as the Paso Fino Horse Association) started with only a dozen shows and a handful of registered horses, but has now grown to 24 regions that encompass over 5,000 members and 56,000 registered horses. The PFHA has a mission to “represent the Paso Fino horse to the American public,” and it does so by holding training clinics, sponsoring shows and demonstra-tions, hosting trail rides, and publishing materials to educate people about the breed, including the Paso Fino Horse World magazine. The PFHA provides programs and competitions for members that allow a wide variety of involvement and activi-ties surrounding the Paso Fino breed.

CALIFORNIA PFHA

Founded: 1982Area: California, Nevada, Hawaii, Central Americawww.cpfha.com

The California Paso Fino Horse Association (CPFHA) is a regional association covering the state of California. The state is divided into three regions, the Southern, Central, and Northern sections of the state. The structure of the Association is somewhat different than most regions in that management is by Committee. The management committee has a Chairman and a Co-Chairman that share the responsi-bilities of operation. Also in that committee are several members that are responsible for the other key management and operation functions. This structure was implemented in January 2007 and is proving to be a more viable form of directing the Association. The committee management team has been implementing aggressive programs to increase membership, hold more events for those that show or trail ride, and clinics for those that want to improve their skills and training methods. The Gold Cup is an example of the type of quality shows being held. The first Gold Cup in Las Vegas drew horses from many areas of the country and was a great success. In 2008 the Gold Cup was held in Industry City, California, and again in 2009 and 2010. With major sponsors and a wonderful setting these were great shows.

Along with the show development program, the various committees have developed programs where the Association participates in parades, demonstrations, and several major Horse Expos. In 2008, CPFHA participated in the Tournament of Roses Parade and Equifest for the 1st time in 16 years. This wonderful breed that we all love so much is without a doubt attracting the attention of riders and youth from all equine areas. Several ranches have implemented youth programs that bring new young riders

to the shows, and many of these riders are becoming amateur owners. Ranches from California have been participating in regional shows as well, and it should be noted that Championship horses from California are winning in these events including the Mundial. The breeding and training programs of California ranches are producing some of the finest horses in the country. This quality improvement in California horses will be seen more and more in the coming events. The CPFHA is proud of what has been accomplished in the recent years and it will continue to promote the breed and develop our youth programs.

The Central Canada Paso Fino Horse Association (CCPFHA) was formed in 2001 and is presently the only Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA) region in Canada. We are a small yet enthusiastic group, and we are pleased to see interest in this breed continuing to grow in the North. Annually, we host various activities including trail rides, clinics, breed demonstrations, shows, road trips and a banquet. We enjoy introducing the smoothest riding horse in the world to the people here in Canada. We always welcome new members and new ideas.

COLOmBIA PFHA

Founded: 1998Area: Colombia

We of the Colombia PFHA would like to say congratulations to the PFHA for 39 years of existence and presence, as we anticipate celebrating our golden 53rd anniversary soon. The Colombia Region, since our founding, has increased in membership, local shows, clinics, and other events that will ultimately benefit the Paso Fino breed.

I can proudly say that we are very close to the first PFHA official show in Colombia. We have a very nice office in the Holstein Friesian Association building next to the coliseum. It is only ten-minutes from Bogotá, where we plan to hold our shows and clinics.

Our members spend time together showing Paso videos and talking about our horses. We hope that very soon we will have all the PFHA regions from the United States visiting us here in Colombia. It will be our pleasure to welcome you to our country and show you many of our ranches, the beautiful country side, cities, and historical sites.

DEEP SOUTH PFHA

Founded: 1987Area: Louisiana (Zip Codes 70000-70899), Mississippi



www.deepsouthpasofino.comOn November 16, 1986, a group of 35 intrepid folks gathered together to organize the Deep South Paso Fino Horse Association. The historic meeting was held in Kiln, Mississippi. The conspirators included Paso lovers from Mississippi, Louisiana and southern Alabama. National President Fred Green gave an orientation speech instructing the group on social activities, organizing shows, and promotion of the breed. In January 1987, this much needed region was approved by the National office.

Armed with regional status, our members rolled up their sleeves and set to work promoting the virtues of the perfect horse. Over the years, we have given numerous demonstrations and participated in exhibitions at prestigious affairs such as the Regional Polo games, Parade of Breeds, Scottish Highland Games, Neshoba County Fair, Greater Gulf States Fair, Dixie National Livestock Show Parade and Mississippi Horse Council Equine Extravaganza. Our horses also participated in the Special Olympics in Biloxi, MS, competitive and endurance rides, fun trail rides, open gaited classes in local shows and parades for Mardi Gras, St. Patrick’s Day, and Christmas.

Our first official Paso Fino Horse Show was held in June 1987 in Covington, Louisiana. It was a successful event entitled “Laissez le Bon Temps Rouler,” or “Let the Good Times Roll” - and roll they did. We went from one show a year to three AHSA/PFHA shows a year with a fun show thrown in for good measure. Over the past 13 years, our membership has more than doubled, and our region has boasted several National Champions. We also have several T.O.P. winners, and our bloodlines include some of the breed’s greatest horses.

Deep South began holding a spring show in Tupelo, Mississippi and a fall show in Gulfport, Mississippi, in 1997. The Tupelo show was our largest show ever until 1999 when we started having our fall Magnolia Classic show in the new, state of the art Forrest County Multipurpose Facility in Hattiesburg, MS. In 2002, we renamed the Tupelo show the Spring Magnolia Classic and moved it to the brand new Tunica Arena and Expo Center in Tunica, MS. Both of these are shows are held in two of the most modern, up-to-date facilities in the country. They have been very successful, have a tremendous following and have

continued to grow every year ...and everyone has a good time!

The people responsible for the beginning and for the continued growth of our club are too many to name. All have sacrificed their time and efforts, striving to promote and enjoy our unique horses. And we continue, hopefully for a long, long time! Ya’ll come see us sometime!

EUROPE PFHA

Founded: 2000Area: Europewww.pfae.org

Founded in 2000 by Paso Fino owners, breeders, and aficionados, the Paso Fino Association Europe (PFAE) soon became the major Paso Fino breed association there. Although there are several other associations promoting a variety of gaited horses (e.g. Peruvian Pasos, Missouri Foxtrotters, American Saddlebred, Icelandics etc.) the PFAE currently is the most active and influential association for the Paso Fino horse in Europe with more than 200 members. The majority of the PFAE members come from Germany, followed by Switzerland. There are also members in Spain, Italy, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Austria and Sweden.

In 2005, the PFAE was accepted as an independent registry for Paso Finos by the Paso Fino Horse Association, Inc. (PFHA). Currently there are more than 900 horses in Europe registered with the PFAE.

Since the Paso Fino population is still rather small in Europe, it is necessary to import horses from other countries. Due to European quarantine regulations it is prohibited to import horses directly from South and Latin America to a EU country, thus, most of the imports come from the USA. Thanks to the successful PFAE breeders, the population is steadily growing with about 40 foals being born each year.

Despite being a small association, the PFAE

organizes and hosts at least two Paso Fino shows each year. In 2010 we celebrated the 10th anniversary of the PFAE with a fantastic European Championship show with more than 60 horses being entered in various show and fun classes.

All shows are based on the rules and regulations developed by the PFAE show committee in close adherence to the current PFHA show and breeding rules. Besides all classes that are available at PFHA shows, the PFAE rules also include some unique European classes such as dressage, three gait (Paso Corto, walk and canter), four gait (Paso Corto, walk, trot and canter), Endurance class (Paso Corto for 10 minutes, selection of the best eight horses that have to perform at Paso Corto for another 10 minutes), Natural Gaiters Class (horses have to perform Paso Corto as well as Paso Corto on loose reins).

Besides shows, PFAE breeders and members also promote the breed by participating in various exhibitions and open house events throughout the year. At least twice a year the PFAE offers horse clinics with professional Paso Fino trainers and breeders in Germany, Switzerland and the UK, thus enabling our members to improve their riding skills.

The PFAE show and breeding secretaries stay in constant contact with US trainers and breeders as well as the PFHA to be up to date regarding the most recent developments of the breed.

Information is available to all members online in German and English, featuring the latest news and events, offering advice and help, providing lists of horses for sale, announcing stallion services and offspring, and providing a directory of training facilities and breeding farms. In addition, members receive a monthly e-newsletter and the BRIO magazine. Once a year, the annual membership meeting takes place featuring interesting fringe programs such as farm visits, feeding clinics, video clips from the PFHA National Championships or Colombian shows.

The members of the PFAE have chosen a magnificent breed, the Paso Fino. Since it is our goal that the breed gets the attention and the place in the equine world that it truly deserves, we feel it necessary that the Paso Fino gets represented and promoted across Europe by an officially acknowledged association, dedicated to



the Paso Fino – The PFAE.Delegate: Sandra Hofstetter(981) 122-8500 or (911) [email protected]

FLORIDA PFHA

Founded: 1968Area: Florida (Zip Codes 32900-33399), Caribbean Islands, Puerto Rico, South America (except Colombia) www.floridapfha.org

The regional group currently known as the Florida Paso Fino Horse Association, Inc. (FPFHA) has had a long and colorful history, longer than even our national governing body, the Paso Fino Horse Association, Inc. (PFHA). Originally incorporated in May 1968, it was first known as the South Florida Paso Fino Association, Inc. and home to the earliest Paso Fino exhibitions and competitions in the continental U.S. It was originally a part of two national associations named American Paso Fino (APF) and the International Paso Fino Society (IPFS). These national governing groups originally sanctioned its shows, and the shows required that the horses be registered with the APF. The Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association (PFOBA) was formed in 1972 to further develop and showcase the breed. This was the original name of the now PFHA.

As the PFOBA flourished and grew, participation and shows with the APF diminished. The only active region of the APF and IPFS in the late 70’s was “Florida,” as we were then known. Florida was always known for the quality of its Paso Finos and many of its members actively competed in shows sanctioned by the PFOBA.

The last National show sanctioned by APF and IPFS was given by the Florida Paso Fino Association in 1979. The members of Florida decided that joining the PFOBA was the ticket and became a regional group within our current National Association. In 1980, Florida’s corporate name was officially changed to Florida Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association, Inc., and we became the fourth PFOBA recognized regional group in the state of Florida. We immediately became the largest regional group within PFOBA, with

our active membership holding more shows than any other regional group.

Florida’s name changed officially again in 1995, to reflect the name change also undertaken by our National organization. The region is now officially known as Florida Paso Fino Horse Association, Inc. or Florida.

The FPFHA has been home to many famous and visionary leaders and owes its current success to the selfless work and dedication of those Directors and members. In 1986, under the leadership of Dee Torcise of Tijodee Farm, the tradition of the annual Spectrum show began. The idea was to demonstrate that a Paso Fino competition could showcase our horses in Grand Style and Class with a capital “C.” Until the arrival of the Spectrum, regional Paso Fino shows were little “undecorated” affairs, just horses and watchers without even music to liven up the show. It was at that first Spectrum that we had our first taste of the then undefeated Fino phenomenon, Capuchino, “dancing” with flamenco dancers and a guitarist on a Fino strip, while being constantly showered with rose petals. The same was done with the incomparable black Bella Forma legend Marichalo Royal, who danced “Flamenco” with the pretty girls, while on two lines. We had fancy decorations, parties, music, and fun. Most importantly, the Spectrum show drew exhibitors from as far away as Texas, and showcased the most brilliant performers of those days.

The quality tradition established in that first Spectrum show has been maintained through different Boards of Directors, under different leadership and through different and sometimes trying times. Today, the Spectrum International Paso Fino Show is renowned internationally for the quality of its competition, drawing only the best from all the Paso Fino countries and always in great numbers. We think the Spectrum show today has become a mini-National, where the best animals are debuted and quality in exhibition and showmanship abounds.

Our experience with the Spectrum show led to the FPFHA being chosen as the sponsor of the 1999 CONFEPASO Mundial exhibition. With great success and style, we showcased the Paso Fino internation-ally and had the first ever cable television coverage of a Paso Fino show.Today, FPFHA members enjoy a diverse,

multi-ethnic, and multi-cultural congregation of true Paso Fino lovers. Our trainers enjoy camaraderie and at the same time provide outstanding competition. Our legions of amateur owners compete aggressively in every show division. Our youth classes riders compete regularly in large numbers at our shows and many successfully represented our country in the past CONFEPASO Youth Mundial competition in Puerto Rico. We are proud to sponsor the “youth only” competition every year in October.

Our membership includes many of this country’s top breeding farms, and we are home to many of the top breeding stallions. Our members love to show their horses, and we try to provide as many opportunities for that as possible. We get together to party and enjoy our horses regularly. Most of our regional meetings offer food, horses, salsa, and Fino -- all in a true spirit of friendship and Paso Fino brotherhood.

GEORGIA PFHA

Founded: 1976Area: Georgia (north on the direct line from Brunswick to Perry, then due west to Columbus)www.gpfha.org

In 1976, the Georgia Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association was created by a small group of owners in the Atlanta area. Since that time, we have evolved into the Georgia Paso Fino Horse Association which has become a statewide (and beyond!) organization consisting of outstanding horses and people!

We are able to enjoy our horses together in a variety of functions. You know it is spring when you see our annual Open House and show listed on the calendar of events. We are proud to report that our “Four Beat Jubilee” show was the winner of the 2009 USEF Breed Competition. GPFHA received the most votes for the 2009 show out of all other PFHA regional shows. Congratu-lations to the show committee and all the volunteers as well as a huge “Thank You”



to all who attended the show and voted it the best show of 2009.

The Open House is complete with a clinician, fun show, games, exhibitions and demo rides. GPFHA is also involved in trail rides and parades throughout the year, so there is something for everyone. As a group, we share our own experiences and information with each other as well as new and prospective owners in hopes of increasing the pleasure of owning and riding these fine horses. GPFHA prides itself on being a diverse group, all of whom have one thing in common: the love of the Paso Fino. More people than ever before are interested in the Paso Fino and want to be involved with our organization. GPFHA will be there to encourage and inform any and all who are interested in this wonderful breed. Even though we know that the Association is a business, we will never loose sight of the fact that “it” is all about the Paso Fino, family and friends!

GPFHA is alive and doing well! In the years to come, we hope to make more new friends as well as see those familiar faces. We will never forget our humble beginnings as it keeps us striving for the growth, preservation and future of the Paso Fino!

GREAT LAKES PFHA

Founded: 1972Area: Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsinwww.greatlakespasofino.org

The seeds of our organization were sown as early as 1969 when Dr. Carolyn Ziegler secured two Paso Fino classes in the Ohio Western All Breed Fall Roundup – the very first time Paso Finos were exhibited north of Atlanta. The horses were very well received, and the stall area was crowded with curious and interested onlookers. They were a tremendous change of pace from the all western aspect of the show.

At this time we were American Paso Fino Horse Association (APF) members and

PFOBA (or PFHA) was unheard of. We had managed to secure ten horses to exhibit during those four days. George LaHood and Cese Figueroa came from Valdosta, GA bringing Mar de Plata, Bolero, and Singer. Kenny Zeigler entered Oasis Z and Sombra LaCE; Dr. Ziegler exhibited La Patrona; Mr. and Mrs. Herb Whitacre brought El Cid and Chapalla; John Moore (Northfield, OH), Mr. Evans, Mr. Lorenz, and Mr. Dick (Bailey, PA) all brought horses to that first exhibit. In 1970 we again returned to the Fall Roundup to exhibit.

Shortly after that first exhibition in 1969, Mr. Lorenz called a meeting in Youngstown, Ohio, and we formed a regional group. The new officers were Dr. Carolyn Ziegler, President, and Mr. Robert Reis, Secretary/Treasurer. Within the next year or two, classes were obtained in May all breed shows in Alliance, Hudson, and Ravenna, Ohio and Bay City, Michigan. In 1971, we were invited to exhibit our horses at the very prestigious Rolling Rock Steeple Chase at Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Our horses were stabled in the famous Mellon Barns, a spectacular layout where even the dog kennels were built to look like another house so they wouldn’t spoil the landscape. We were supposed to be furnished with our own grooms and stable boys, but shortly after we arrived, they disappeared. Evidently they had decided the group with the Paso Finos were not socially up to par as we had to groom our own horses. A million dollars worth of trophies were displayed in the barn area, and all the society of Pittsburgh saw our horses perform during that week.

Things moved rapidly from that point on, and during January 1972, the Great Lakes Paso Fino Federation was incorporated as a non-profit organization in Ohio by Mr. Leonard Reith, Mr. Herb Whitacre, and Dr. Carolyn Ziegler. The term “Federation” became part of our name through a chain of events at the original meeting. We first chose Great Lakes Paso Fino Association, but the President of APF objected to the word “Association,” as he felt it would be confused with the American Paso Fino Horse Association (APF). We then decided to use the term of the oldest Puerto Rican organization which was “federation.” We are therefore the oldest incorporated region in PFHA since the Atlantic Paso Fino Association is no longer in existence. Sunshine was formed a short time later. In May of that same year we held our first all

Paso Fino show and had 21 horses. The show was approved by the American Paso Fino Horse Association. Very few of you have heard of the latter organization. It was a short-lived organization formed by some members of APF to actively promote the showing of our horses. In the summer of 1972, most of the people involved in it formed the Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association (PFOBA) in Knoxville, Tennessee, which later became the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA).

Two couples from Great Lakes, Leonard and Geraldine Reith, and Drs. John and Carolyn Ziegler were among those involved in the founding of PFOBA. During 1972, a total of ten couples, including the Reith’s and Ziegler’s, put up $1000 each for a total of $10,000 to get the organization off the ground. Of the original ten couples, those still alive are the LaHoods, Nolts, and Geraldine Reith.

The early history of Great Lakes would not be complete without mentioning Mr. Kenneth Zeigler, of Salem, Ohio. Kenny Zeigler raised Appaloosa horses. He saw an article in Western Horseman about Paso Finos, by Rosalie MacWilliam. He contacted her for more information. While in Puerto Rico, Rosalie selected four Paso Finos for Mr. Zeigler: Oasis, a seal brown stallion, son of Batalla; San Lorenza, a black mare with her foal, and two other mares and one in foal. These two foals, La Patrona Z and Zorra Z, were purchased then by Dr. Carolyn Ziegler. San Lorenza was later purchased by Leonard Reith’s and produced eleven foals before her death in 1982. Mr. Zeigler later imported other Paso Finos by boat, and in the late 60’s and early 70’s, he had 25 to 30 Paso Finos. That was a large herd in those days. Mr. Zeigler was extremely active in Paso Fino affairs and was one of the members of Great Lakes at its founding. Mr. Zeigler’s stallion, Oasis, was shown very little, but his influence in the Great Lakes area was exceptional. In the year 1969, he was selected as “Sire of the Year” by APF, siring 27 foals that year. He was a well-mannered and well-gaited animal.

In 2002, in order to conform with a request by PFHA, we changed our name to the Great Lakes Paso Fino Horse Association. As a region, Great Lakes has been very active in the national organization. Our former presidents Dr. Carolyn Ziegler and Kay Chiapetta later became Presidents of PFHA. Long-time member Carolyn Karnes



Barren assisted in the first computerization of PFHA’s records as well as holding the office of Secretary and Vice President of PFHA. We are also very active in non-show events, including trail rides, parades, and other get-togethers. If you live in our region or near it, we welcome you to join in on the fun.

GREAT WESTERN PFHA

Founded: 1975Area: Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utahwww.greatwesternpasofino.com

The Great Western Paso Fino Horse Association, previously known as Great Western Paso Fino Owners and Breeders, Inc., was formed in January 1975 with one thought in mind: To make “Paso Fino” household words west of the Mississippi River and on to California. At that time, there were few horses and even fewer owners and breeders in this area. Great Western set out to change this by contacting every Paso Fino owner, breeder and aficionado in this vast area.

The membership was growing and moving west - New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, Texas, Utah, Idaho, California, and more new members in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska. With the success of the Paso Fino horse west of the Mississippi, we have seen the spin-off of several new regional organizations, such as Southwestern, High Plains, California, and Northwestern. Great Western PFOBA also got a new name, Great Western Paso Fino Horse Association (GWPFHA). We have members in Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Arizona. GWPFHA has emerged as a strong and active regional group. To accommodate our vast geographic area, we have organized a Great Western chapter in each of our states with regional activities as well as local activities for our members.

We hope to keep GWPFHA active by continuing on our original path, and we quote from the second newsletter written

after the 1975 National Convention: “The Paso Fino really won. Our horses are the ones that will benefit and prosper and that’s the name of the game. We must keep the horse - this very exceptional, very special breed of horse-first in our minds at all times. Let us remember what we are pledged to do - to improve, to promote, to take great care of these fantastic horses - our friends, our teachers, our most pleasant companions. Great Western will take its place as a formidable group - being above pettiness and join together for these magnificent horses. Let us be horsemen first and people second.”

GULF PFHA

Founded: 1976Area: Alabama, Georgia (south of the direct line from Brunswick to Perry, and then due west to Columbus)www.gulfpfha.org

Gulf welcomes new members from Alabama, Georgia, and surrounding areas. We have something for everyone whether you are interested in showing, trail riding, or fellowship with other Paso Fino owners. We hold our major show in April in Andalusia, Alabama. This show is growing every year, and we expect it to keep getting bigger and better. The Covington Center is a very nice facility with new stalls and a climate controlled arena. We also have a one day show in Perry, GA in October that is in conjunction with the Georgia National Fair. This is the show where the most people are introduced to our wonderful breed. The fairgoers are full of questions and many of them have never seen a Paso Fino before. If you come to this show, be ready to answer plenty of questions and have a great time.

This is a great opportunity to show off our breed and also to earn your points early for the next year’s Nationals.

As you can see, Gulf is a busy region that has something for everyone. If you are interested in joining Gulf we would love to have you!

HIGH PLAINS PFHA

Founded: 1998Area: Kansaswww.highplainspfha.org

The High Plains Paso Fino Horse Association was organized in the summer of 1998 with 66 members and 210 horses. They were approved by the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA) Board of Directors at the October 1998 Board of Directors meeting. That was a momentous occasion because this was one of the few regions to be approved in the near past. The purpose of the formation of this new region was to have a smaller geographical territory with a higher concentration of members so we could be more involved together in the name of our Paso Fino horses. What has actually happened is that our membership has grown over the years; the miracle age of technology has helped us stay in touch as we continue to grow in membership and our member area grows. Since the first official meeting as an organization on November 21, 1998, our membership has increased to nearly 200 members.

What attributed to this is outstanding members who want to see our region succeed. They volunteer, and then volunteer again. The second attribution is striving for consensus and something for everyone. We have concentrated on our membership and work to assure they receive benefits. We want congeniality and everyone to have a voice.

We are aware that the strength of any organization is based upon its communication and service to its membership. For that reason we have a bi-monthly newsletter and a website accessible to members of High Plains. The website features a forum section where our membership can communicate with each other and make their opinions known. We encourage farm clinics offering $300/clinic, up to $1000/year, to help defray the cost of educating our members and the public about our wonderful horses. In addition, we sponsor trail rides in strategic sites within the region and help defray some of the costs of providing fun and community to our members. Our newly formed youth



organization sponsors events at our regional horse shows, provides activities to encourage our youth’s participation, and supports our youth attending Youth Mundial.

Some of our activities include the Lawrence, KS Christmas Parade, Beef Empire Days Parade in Garden City, the July 4th Parade in Marshfield, MO (the oldest parade west of the Mississippi), two shows- one in Tulsa, OK and the other in Springfield, MO-and trail rides in Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. We also participate annually in Equi-Fest in Wichita, KS.

Our region is blessed with some of the founders of Paso Fino horses in the United States and founders of the breed registry and organization. Our region is also blessed with some of the foundation stock, as well as National Show high achievers. We are proud of our farms, our members, and our horses. We wish everyone great success and good riding.

KENTUCKY PFHA

Founded: 1986Area: Kentuckywww.kentuckypasofino.us

The Kentucky Paso Fino Horse Association is made up of an exuberant group of individuals who primarily reside in the Kentuckiana region. Our members participate with their horses on a day to day basis, enjoying the rewards of ownership, companionship, pleasure riding, and showing. The passionate group prides itself in helping others get started with their experience and knowledge or improving overall confidence and enjoyment by supporting them all. It also doesn’t hurt to be close to the National PFHA office located at the Horse Park in Lexington. We can also connect with other associations like USEF or KEEP whenever appropriate.

The Kentucky PFHA encourages you to join the region and discover the rewards enjoyed by current or new members. We know that members enjoy participating with other “Paso People” in different types of activities and events such as our annual show in

July, the Pegasus Parade in Louisville the Thursday before the Kentucky Derby, basic horsemanship clinics, demonstrations at local businesses and events, organized trail rides, Local gaited horse shows (eg. shows supported by Bardstown Gaited Horse Association), and informal gatherings with breeders and trainers to address horse riding challenges.

mASON DIXON PFHA

Founded: 1987Area: Washington D.C., Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia (Zip Codes 2490-28599 and 26000-26899)www.masondixonpfha.org

Incorporated in 1987, the Mason Dixon Paso Fino Horse Association (MDPFHA) encompasses the States of New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Washington, D.C., Maryland, and West Virginia. Our vision is to be “a nationally recognized organization of informed and active members dedicated to supporting the equine community and celebrating the Paso Fino.” To that end, we strive not only to maintain our current membership, but to continue our growth through a variety of efforts. These efforts, which focus on promoting the wonderful char-acteristics and abilities of the Paso Fino include participating in the Maryland and Pennsylvania Horse World Expositions, “all breed” shows, gymkhana, FEI World Exhibition, Keystone International Livestock Exposition (KILE) and Breed-specific demonstrations, such as the National Horse Show in Washington, D.C. Dedicated volunteers staff our MDPFHA booth that showcases the versatility of the breed through photographs, videos, and brochures. Our professional trainers are there to answer questions about training, tack, and the qualities of the breed. We demonstrate Fino, Performance, and

Pleasure class horses along with Versatility and Western disciplines.

We also showcase the Paso Fino by riding in parades; offering clinics throughout the year; providing open houses; enjoying a variety of trail rides scheduled in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, or with multi-breed horse clubs; competitive trail events; and, exploring other activities such as cattle work and driving clinics. Trail Blazers is our recreational rider awards program through which trail riders log their hours with the intent of winning annual awards. In additional to participating in these recreational programs, MDPFHA also sponsors several pointed shows throughout the year beginning with KILE in October at the Harrisburg Farm Show Complex, PA. KILE, which once again earned the distinction of being the largest livestock show on the East Coast, offers MDPFHA a great opportunity to showcase the Paso Fino. Our second show of the season is the May Day show at the Diamond 7 Ranch in Dillsburg, PA. This show continues to be a very popular and enjoyable show, with a strong emphasis on camaraderie and having fun with our equine companions. Our region’s largest show, the Mason Dixon Spectacular Paso Fino Show, is held at the Virginia Horse Center in Lexington, VA in June. This successful show offers cash awards for many classes. The Breeders’ Futurity, held in conjunction with the Show, is an additional program that enables exhibitors and stallion owners to earn additional monies with their horses. To provide experienced Paso Fino owners and non-owners alike the opportunity to compete on any horse in any division with the willing support of the horse’s owner, Opportunity and Amateur-to-Ride classes offer a great chance to try a new breed or a new Division.

MDPFHA recognizes its future lies partly in its youth and has developed a dynamic youth program that consists of clinics as well as class auditing at the regional shows with discussion for each youth so they can improve their ride the following day. Where and whenever possible, members of MDPFHA do not hesitate to promote the Paso Fino. We have an Ambassador of the Breed program where owners invite prospective buyers to come and test drive the Paso Fino horse. One ride usually brings out the “Paso Smile” from the rider and seals the deal. The MDPFHA sincerely desires to represent all of the region’s Paso Fino people and provide a sound support



system that will increase breed related activity for our members. Our primary communication tool is our newsletter, the Power Glide, which is published every two months on our website. If you are visiting our region please let us know if we can assist you.

mID-AmERICA PFHA

Founded: 1979Area: Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Canadian province of Manitobawww.mapfha.com

The Mid America Paso Fino Horse Association (MAPFHA) was established in 1979 by a small collection of Paso Fino enthusiasts who met for a trail ride and a meeting. From that original group, Orville and Pat Cummings and Walter Benhardus are still active in breeding and training Paso Finos. Since then our region has grown, as knowledge of the smooth gait became more widely known.

Our five state region encompasses Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota, as well as some members from outside the region. Membership is close to 200 single and family members who own around 500 registered Paso Finos. We feel that our member involvement in various horse activities will increase public awareness and increase our numbers. Members of our region enjoy a variety of activities such as fun shows, Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA) shows, organized trail rides, Minnesota Horse Exposition, breed demonstrations, parades, and of course pleasure riding.

Those who prefer to compete in an arena setting participate in our regional show, the Heartland Classic, as well as other regional shows and the PFHA Grand Nationals. The trail riding and pleasure riders can participate in our numerous weekend trail rides or our two week camp and ride excursion somewhere outside of the region, which is held each fall. We offer

high point awards for regional participants in the Heartland Classic and are approved as a sponsor for point accumulation for the PFHA Pleasure Riding point system.

Each spring we host a Chili Bake and Charity Auction to benefit the region. Members have an opportunity to donate items as well as purchase items via a wining bid. A fun time is had by all as they enjoy good food, games, and socializing with fellow members. We publish our regional news in the Messenger, published six times per year, with articles on training, care, tips, member biographies, advertising, committee reports, announcements, and PFHA Board information.

The states of New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and Quebec, Canada, are included in our region. We also attract members from several adjoining states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Ontario, Canada. Our association has grown to over 200 members and several hundred horses, including many National Champions.

The Northeast is an active region. We offer clinics in spring and fall featuring both local and guest trainers. Clinic topics are varied and meet the needs of neophytes as well as seasoned participants. Our show calendar boasts three venues. Our May show is held in conjunction with the New York State Horse Breeders Association all breed show in Syracuse. Our July show, “Schoharie Valley Paso Serenade” is held in Cobleskill, NY. The “Fandango at Middleboro” is the season finale in August.

Our region also organizes and participates in several group trail rides each year. These rides can be along the surf of the Atlantic

Ocean or in the Mountains throughout our region. We are very proud of our free trail riding program. Hours are tallied and awards are presented to deserving trail riders at the end of the season.

Each year about 50,000 people participate in Equine Affair held in West Springfield, MA. This event is a unique tool to promote our Paso Finos. Last year, a few lucky Pasos from our Association were invited to dance to the music of a symphony orchestra in “Fantasia”, as part of the highlight of the event, The Symphony of Horses.

Communication is important in a region which includes seven states and two countries. We offer a monthly newsletter to members and interested non-members. This newsletter is distributed via email. Visit our evolving website, www.pasonortheast.com. It offers a glimpse into our farm directory, boarding facilities, trainers, and also news from the region.

The Northeast has unique diversity to offer. Where else could you ride your Paso Fino on a cranberry bog near Plymouth Rock, or in the Connecticut woods near a Mohegan casino, or in the Berkshire mountains, or in the scenic mountains of upstate New York or Vermont, or near lobster-filled waters of Maine, or…

NORTH FLORIDA PFHA

Founded: 1976Area: Florida (Zip Codes 32000-32699 & 34600-34699)www.northflpaso.com

The commitment to the Paso Fino breed runs deep in the North Florida regional group. The region stretches from Pensacola to Jacksonville down near Ocala including Brooksville and across to the Atlantic Ocean. North Florida PFHA began as Everglades PFHA and moved from south Florida in 1989 when several of the original South Florida founders moved north. While the region enjoys its south Florida history, the name was changed to North Florida PFHA in 2007 to better



reflect the geographic area served. These days, we are more likely to be found on the trail than in the show ring.

The general club character is horse-informed, horse-social, horse-active, and laid back. Our annual Membership meeting typically starts late while members catch up on life and horses. New members can find information and a community while older members enjoy the camaraderie of long standing friendships. We attend to the business of running an association and are committed to the growth of PFHA, but we don’t let it get in the way of our real purpose – the horse. Busy people volunteer as officers and delegates when they can and everyone takes a turn helping out. If you like informed, equine-oriented friends, interesting breed trivia, a variety of Paso Fino activities and a smattering of horsey gossip, no hassle discussions, and majority-rule decisions, drop in on North Florida Paso Fino Horse Association. Our goal is to spread the word in north and central Florida that the Paso Fino is the smoothest riding horse in the world. Ya’ll come now! Visit our website to see lots of photos and to find out more about our activities. President: Leatha Flowers(850) [email protected]

NORTHWEST PFHA

Founded: 1977Area: Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Colombia, Saskatchewanwww.nwpfha.com

The Northwest Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association was started in August 1977 by Judy and Tom Carr of Puyallup, Washington. They got together with about 17 people and elected officers for a Board of Directors. The regional boundaries included Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Western Montana, British Columbia, and Alberta, Canada.

Today some 32 years later, the Northwest Paso Fino Horse Association (NWPFHA) has approximately 100 full time members,

and the region’s boundaries include Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, and the Canadian Provinces of Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan.

The main purpose of the NWPFHA is to promote the Paso Fino breed by creating regional activities for our members and their horses. There are trail rides, clinics, endurance rides, back country packing, parades, drill teams, expositions, and shows, including all breed and gaited shows. This diverse range of activities gives all members the opportunity to participate throughout the whole year.

The NWPFHA participates in a number of expos throughout the region, including Ride the West in Spokane, WA; Northwest Horse Fair and Expo in Albany, Oregon; the Idaho Horse Expo in Nampa, ID; and the Horse Affair and Trade show in Boise, ID. In 2008, 2010, and planned again for 2011, members participated in the Calgary Stampede. Our breed booth at the 2010 Calgary Stampede was the most popular of all the breeds represented. We also represented the Paso Fino in the 100th anniversary of the Pendleton Roundup Parade in 2010. Our members were wearing traditional costumes that were donated to our Northwest Association and are available to our members for shows and parades.

More and more members are participating in the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA) Ticket to Ride program, and sanctioned trail rides are increasing. There are campouts at the lakes, in the mountains, in the desert, or at the Pacific Ocean Coast of the Northwest Region. Clinics with professional trainers are increasing, and there is often a waiting list to participate in the clinics.

The Oregon State Fair Horse Show, held in late August each year, is the NWPFHA’s pointed Paso Fino show. There are a wide range of Paso Fino classes for PFHA members to show off their fine horses to a large audience. By promoting the Paso Fino horse with events like these, we have an ever-increasing membership through the sale of this exciting breed. We work hard in the Northwest Region to promote our wonderful Paso Fino horses, provide educational opportunities for our members and their horses, as well as the general public, and to have fun at all times. We always welcome new members to our

region.

OZARK EmPIRE PFHA

Founded: 1971Area: Missouriwww.ozarkempirepfha.org

The Ozark Empire Paso Fino Horse Association (OEPFHA) was founded in 1971. The region consists of members from Arkansas, Canada, Colorado, Colombia, Illinois, Idaho, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. Members range from large breeding farms to individual horse owners who all share the common goal of personally enjoying and promoting the Paso Fino horse to the American public.

OEPFHA members are very active with their Paso Fino horses. Our members compete successfully at the national level winning Grand National, National, and National Reserve Championships. OEPFHA represents the Paso Fino breed at the “Illinois Horse Fair” in March, sponsors the all Paso Fino “Midwest Classic” show in May, and represents in the all-breed Illinois State Fair “Society Horse Show” in August at the Fair Grounds in Springfield, IL.

Many of our members use their Paso Finos for trail riding on a regular basis with some participating in the Big Piney, Eminence, and Wilderness Trail Rides. OEPFHA sponsors a fall trail ride and membership meeting for our members. Whether on the trail or in the show ring, OEPFHA members enjoy their Paso Fino horses!

The OEPFHA is the Mid-America home of some of the best Paso Fino horses in the world. Besides winning at the Grand National Championship Show, many of the excellent stallions and mares in our region have been honored in the Paso Fino Horse Association’s Top Ten Sires and Top Ten Dams lists. We have quality horses available at reasonable prices for breeding, pleasure, and show. Quality professional training is available in the region for both horses and riders.We invite



you to visit our website and learn more about our region, our members, and their horses.

PIEDmONT PFHA

Founded: 1976Area: North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia (Zip Codes 24700-24899 and 259xx)www.piedmontpasofino.org

The Piedmont PFHA region held its first group meeting on December 21, 1976, and its first Paso Fino show four months later in Monroe, North Carolina. This show was a one day event with 35 horses. On May15, 1977, Piedmont held a trail ride for NATRC horsemen in South Carolina. In 1979, Piedmont joined hands with AHSA (now USEF) in a 10 class horse show in Oak Ridge, North Carolina. These humble beginnings were the start of a powerful active region, bringing members from the now non-active Atlantic Paso Fino Owners and Breeders Association, which covered the eastern part of the US.

The Piedmont PFHA is the third largest and considered one of the most successful regions of the Paso Fino Horse Association. The Piedmont Breeder’s Futurity proudly showcases the offspring of over 60 stallions, awarding to some of the most valuable breeding stock in our breed over $160,000 since its inception in 1992. Each year, the Piedmont Classic in Asheville, NC, continues to reign as one of the largest regional USEF/PFHA shows held in the USA, and justly called the mini-Nationals due to the high level of competition in all divisions. At this prestigious show, over $82,000 in prizes was awarded in 2004, including $30,000 awarded to Piedmont Breeder’s Futurity nominated horses and their sires

Piedmont’s shows have grown to be second to none. We host the Carolina Classic (Clemson, SC) and the Piedmont Classic - Asheville Alive (Asheville, NC), as well as a show at the NC State Fair. These shows continue to be highly successful

representing the finest quality of Paso Fino horses being exhibited, and being among the largest number of entry turnouts in the country. The NC State Fair Horse Show held in Raleigh in October has sponsored Paso Fino classes since 1976 and draws a large crowd of non-Paso Fino spectators. Piedmont has hosted the Grand National Paso Fino Championship Show four times in its excellent equine facilities in Raleigh and Asheville, North Carolina.

Piedmont supports several fun shows and clinics each year, emphasizing education and entertainment in a relaxed atmosphere. Trail rides are also an important activity in the Piedmont PFHA region. Trail rides are scheduled most months in different areas of the region, providing well-attended, fun filled days of horses, friends, and food. Piedmont is proud to have members that have logged over 750 hours each for the PFHA’s Pasos for Pleasure program. Piedmont also has its own “Piedmont Pathfinders” regional trail riding points program. Our region is also the home of numerous National Champions, Top Ten Sires and Dams, Gelding of the Year honorees, and some of the top show horses, most respected trainers, dedicated amateur riders, and breeding farms in the United States.

Piedmont PFHA owes its success to all of its dedicated Paso Fino enthusiasts. Trail riders, horse owners, breeders, youth, trainers, and exhibitors are each equally important to the future of the breed and the region. Members reside mainly in North Carolina and South Carolina, but also in Virginia, Tennessee, West Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Alabama, Texas, Washington, and the Virgin Islands. Join us, and help us to help you find even more ways to enjoy your Paso Fino.

SOUTHERN PFHA

Founded: 1976Area: Florida (Zip Codes 32700-32899, 33500-34599 & over 34700)www.srpfha.com

Southern Regional Paso Fino Horse Association (SRPFHA) is located in Central Florida with over 600 members. We are one of the oldest Florida based regions and the second largest region in the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA). Our objectives, purposes, and goals are to sustain, enhance, improve, cultivate, and protect the breeding, bloodlines, character, and heritage of the Paso Fino breed; to educate, instruct, inform, enlighten, and interest people in proper methods of Paso Fino horse riding techniques; and to maintain the breed standards as well as promote the breed, while having fun and celebrating the Paso Fino horse.

Currently we sponsor five shows a year, including our Extravaganza Show which is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. This show has become one of the largest Paso Fino shows with over 1,600 entries and has a reputation for bringing in many visitors from across the United States, Canada, Colombia, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela and Europe. In addition to our shows, SRPFHA is very active promoting the Paso Fino breed at equestrian events and is a proud sponsor of the Florida Horse Park. Our region holds six membership meetings, clinics, and fun shows as well as trail rides each year. We are a fun group, and we love our horses.

SRPFHA is located in the Ocala, FL area known as the Horse Capital of the World. The importance of our region is denoted by the presence of the foremost stallions of our breed, renowned trainers and training centers, and some of the largest breeding operations of Paso Fino horses. In fact, North Central and Central Florida has the largest population of Paso Fino horses, and more Paso Fino foals are produced here than anywhere else in the country.

SOUTHWESTERN PFHA

Founded: 1985Area: Louisiana (Zip Codes 71000-71499), Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansaswww.swpfha.org



The Southwestern Paso Fino Horse Association (SWPFHA) was organized in 1985 for the purpose of promoting the Paso Fino horse in the Southwestern region of the United States. The region covers all of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and portions of Louisiana. SWPFHA is the official regional affiliate of the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA), and represents approximately 380 voting members of PFHA.

SWPFHA provides many avenues for its members and friends to enjoy their Paso Fino horses, including an annual Fandango Tejas show. In addition, the region hosts horsemanship clinics, Fun Shows, trail rides, breed demonstrations, and competitive trail and jumping clinics. Members also enjoy team penning, roping, barrel racing, pole-bending, endurance riding, and soccer on horseback.

Members ride their horses in various parades throughout the region, such as the holiday parade and stock show parade near Houston. The SWPFHA is proud of its all-Paso Fino youth drill team, FINISIMO, as this troupe has garnered many national championships over the past few years. In addition, SWPFHA has traditionally supported Paso Fino marketing efforts at venues like the Houston and San Antonio livestock shows.

Many SWPFHA members have achieved great success with their horses at regional shows, the PFHA Grand National Show, and at world Paso Fino events, including the bi-annual Youth Mundial competitions. There are several large breeding and training facilities located within the region, and many other smaller farms. Each year at the respected Spectrum and Grand National shows, SWPFHA members come away with impressive wins!

The current officers of SWPFHA are dedicated to the needs of our membership and the promotion of the Paso Fino horse, and we thank our PFHA board for its commitment and help in these efforts. President and Delegate: Annette Crooks(940) [email protected]

SUNSHINE PFHA

Founded: 1972Area: Florida (Zip Codes 33400-33499)www.sunshinepaso.org

The Sunshine Paso Fino Horse Association (SPFHA) was founded almost 30 years ago on July 27, 1972, by Paso Fino owners in and around Palm Beach County, FL. A few months later, on December 27, 1972, SPFHA became the first region in the State of Florida to join the Paso Fino Horse Association (PFHA), then PFOBA. Plans were already underway to hold the first weekend of two separate Paso Fino shows in February 1973. Up until this time, shows were only one day. We are honored to be one of the oldest regions in PFHA, and we’ve sure come a long way! We strive to appeal to a broad range of Paso Fino enthusiasts by offering a wide variety of activities – beach rides, camp outs with our horses, clinics, drill teams for both adults and children, driving, exhibitions, parades, showing, team penning, trail rides, and year end awards. To make sure all members stay abreast of our many activities, we publish a monthly newsletter full of upcoming local and national events and info on meetings, members, and happenings.

SPFHA hosts “all Paso Fino” shows several times each year: our three-day Fiesta del Sol in the fall, our brand new one-day Summer Sizzler in August, and our two-day Spring Jubilee in the spring. We hold our two and three-day shows at the Palm Beach Polo Equestrian Club in Wellington, FL, an internationally known show facility and site of the Winter Equestrian Festival (as seen on ESPN). This site is well received by all exhibitors. Our Friday night welcoming events and Saturday night showcase exhibition and exhibitors’ party are such hits that we can’t wait to do them again!

We continue to work hard to ensure our upcoming shows are every bit as exciting as the previous ones. SPFHA has a number of horses and riders showing and socializing at the Posse Grounds’ local monthly all-breed pleasure shows. They have six Paso Fino classes for us at these shows, including two for 12 and under riders and they also have terrific year-end high point awards. With this in mind, we added one or two PFHA Local Shows to our show circuit. Held in conjunction with the Posse Grounds’ shows and using those six Paso Fino classes plus Fino 12 and under and

Paso Costume, it is very well received by both exhibitors and spectators! We do team penning at the Posse Grounds monthly, as well. It’s so much fun to show others how truly versatile Paso Finos are! They have great “cow sense,” and we are actually earning the respect of the “traditional” penners. We enjoy participating in Okeechobee’s Speckled Perch Festival Parade each March, all decked out in our finest. The crowd really enjoys seeing our Paso Fino horses strut their stuff! The hot summer months find us hitting the surf with our horses for our monthly beach rides and swimming. We now have members coming many miles from all over Florida to join in the fun. It’s really great to see how our Paso Fino horses love the ocean! During the beginning of July, you will find our drill team, Aurora, with others from our club at The Great Lake Park Fireworks Festival, doing exhibitions as part of the entertainment.

The cooler months find us camping with our horses - usually at DuPuis Reserve near Indiantown or at the Florida Ag Center & Horse Park in Ocala. What a chance to see natural Florida with our horses and to socialize with some of our members who live up that way! October brings a finale to our show circuit with our banquet and high point awards ceremony. This is one of the few events our horses can’t attend! December finds us decked out in our finest Spanish costumes for the Palms West Christmas Parade in Wellington. We’ve won First Place Equestrian Unit numerous times. Many of us are right back in costume and/or drill team attire for the South Florida Fair in January each year, where we usually put on six exhibitions over the three weekends of the Fair. As you can see, all year ‘round we can be found somewhere, doing something with our Paso Finos! Sunshine members really have fun at all we do, whether it be “pleasure” or “show.” This is reflected in our fantastic turnouts at all events, not only riders, but also those who come to socialize and cheer the riders on. Sunshine has experienced phenomenal growth the past few years. We are infused with excitement and enthusiasm and are always looking for opportunities to promote these wonderful horses! We invite you to come join the fun in the sun!

CLASS 47 TROCHA-GALOPE*The “trocha” is the typical way of movement, considered a gait, for some horses which is measured in a rhythmical and harmonious tempo but in four uneven beats, identified by the sound produced by the four beats when the sequence of the cycle is performed. Its sound follows a 1-1-1-1 rhythm. Galope or canter is a movement of forward diagonal propulsion in three beats: the first stage begins with the striking of one hind leg; the second stage is taken by the opposite hind leg and the foreleg diagonal to it; then the third stage is completed when the last foreleg hits the ground. The beat makes a 1-2-3, 1-2-3 sound. Horses will be asked to perform individual tests: Figure eight, Back, Serpentine, and Sounding Board in both directions. To be judged 75% on execution and naturalness of the gait, 15% on appearance and way of going, and 10% on manners.
