NACHA will be holding a makeup show for the cancelled August show on Sunday, October 10th. This makes a two day show for the weekend. Saturday October 9th (rain date for the July show) and then followed on Sunday the 10th (rain date for the August show). We have corrals available at Prescott Livestock Auction on a first come, first served basis. They are $20 per night. To reserve a corral, please call Marcia Sansoucy at 928-420-4588.
NACHA has successfully held 3 shows already this year (April, May & June). We have two more shows scheduled for September 4th & 25th. With the addition of the two October rain date shows, we will be back to our original 7 shows for the 2021 season.
For NACHA year end awards, you will need to show in 5 shows to qualify (50% of shows plus one). There are plenty of opportunities to get qualified.
For those of you trying to qualify for the inaugural 2021 Arizona State Cutting Championship show, you will need to have a minimum of 4 NACHA shows (50% of the shows offered). We now have four shows left so even if you have not already shown with NACHA this year, you could potentially shows at the remaining shows and qualify.

Just a reminder, we will be holding our annual “Bridleless” Cutting at our September 25th show. The winner will take home a beautiful pair of engraved Nettles stirrups. It is always a fun event. We will be doing a Calcutta for the spectators and will auction off the teams – bring your cash. Come out and support your favorite equine athletes (& Yes!, their riders and owners too!)
