Join us Saturday July 23 for our ACTHA Ride at the Ranch Event. Help us help the lives of abused horses!! To join the ride, you must sign up on line. Please go to www.actha.us, click on Rides then on View Rides & Locations, scroll down to Ride the West with ACTHA and follow the prompts. REMEMBER...it does cost money to join and to ride, but you receive ACTHA bucks to redeem in their store! SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!
ACTHA’s Founders, Karen VanGetson and Carrie Scrima were tired of long drives to multi-day, timed competitions. They wanted a venue where they could enjoy their horses and the wonderful scenery around them. Of course they wanted some challenge and a chance to learn as well as show off their horse’s talents. But most of all they wanted beauty, comaraderie and fun!
Try as they might to find this in areas they were interested in or on a national level, their search was in vain. So Carrie said "Let’s start one!". Thus the foundation for ACTHA began.
Today ACTHA is a national phenomenon with rides all across the USA. Wonderful sponsors and participants flock to ACTHA SANCTIONED rides and enable our higher Cause…feeding starving horses by donating to Horse Rescues and charities. Up to 50% of ACTHA’s proceeds are directly donated to horse charities.
ACTHA enables others to hold these wonderful casual competitions through its "Affiliate Program". An Affiliate can be an individual, club or any organization wanting to raise funds. ACTHA provides assistance and aids, as well as a consulting member of ACTHA’s management team that joins with the Affiliate every step of the way. (For more on this look at "Host a Ride").
Please join with us, and have fun, learn, win prizes and most of all help us stop the neglect that thousands of horses find themselves enduring. There are wonderful rescues doing everything they can…but they need help. Let’s have fun and feel good doing it!
