TWHBEA to be On-Site During Celebration Entry Deadline; Futurity Deadline is July 23
Friday, July 19, 2024
A representative from the Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders’ & Exhibitors’ Association (TWHBEA) will be on-site during the Celebration Entry Deadline on July 22 and 23, 2024. TWHBEA will be set up with Celebration entry office staff in the Blue Ribbon Circle from 8am-5pm both days to assist customers with registrations, transfers, leases, show cards, and Futurity nominations. The Main Office in Lewisburg will also be open regular hours, from 9am-5pm Monday through Friday and can be reached at 931-359-1574.
Tuesday, July 23 is also the deadline to receive nominations to compete in this year’s TWHBEA National Futurity. The TWHBEA National Futurity is the premier event for breeders of Tennessee Walking Horses. Held annually in conjunction with the Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration, the futurity offers the biggest payout in the industry for young horses. Over $50,000 is split between top breeders each year. The TWHBEA National Futurity is more inclusive than it’s ever been. Futurity-nominated horses can earn money in practically any division through their three-year-old season. Like last year, this year’s Celebration will offer designated futurity classes for Weanlings, Yearlings, Performance, Park Pleasure, All Day Pleasure, Lite Shod, Trail Pleasure, Country Pleasure, Park Performance, and Show Pleasure. In order to participate horses must be nominated for the Futurity with TWHBEA and entered in their respective Celebration class by the deadline.
