Remembering Morgan Friends
Each year at the Grand
National we like to remember and acknowledge the Morgan friends who have
passed away since the last Grand National. Their names will be read after
class 232 on Saturday afternoon. If there is someone you’d like remembered,
please add their name to the list in the main horse show office by Saturday
morning.
Grand National Sponsors
Wow! What a fantastic
family of sponsors at this year’s Grand National. Over 400 owners,
trainers, exhibitors and farms are sponsors at this year’s show. If you’re
a sponsor and you haven’t picked up your gift bag, nametags, box seat
tickets and valet parking passes, they are waiting for you in the Central
Ticketing Office in Barn 1.
Seat Covers
Markel and the World Morgan
Futurity are doing their best to dress up the Coliseum and keep your seats
reserved! Order your seat covers and be ready for shows next year. Forms
are available in the Central Ticketing Office.

World Morgan Futurity
Visit the Central Ticketing
Office to bid on a month’s training with your favorite trainer. 34 trainers
have donated one month’s training, and various publications have donated 4
full page color ads. Money earned from the silent auction goes to add to
prize money and is given to the dam owners of Futurity winners that had
their sires participate in the Stallion Service Auction.
Nominate your sire to the
2007 Stallion Service Auction. Proceeds of the auction go to AMHA for
marketing and promotion, to the World Morgan Futurity for bonus prize money
and to Regional Horse Shows. A bonus of $10,000 will be added in 2009 to
the Futurity if a resulting breeding wins a World Morgan Futurity class.
$5,000 will be added each year.
Visit the AMHA Booth
Check in at the AMHA booth
in the Coliseum for all your Morgan accessories and attire. The Kathy
Iverson jackets and sweatshirts are going fast! There is plenty to bid on
in the silent auctions, with proceeds going to the Museum and the Youth.
Pack your bags for Ireland!
The AMHI invites you to
join them for an exciting and unique trip to Ireland’s horse country April
22-29, 2007. The customized tour will be highlighting race training
stables, Stud Farms, with participants even taking a ride on the famous
Kilvahan Horse Drawn Gypsy Wagons. For more info, contact Sally Wadhams at
the show or at 802.985.8477. |
