Finding Inspiration in Every Turn

The Western Pennsylvania Quarter Horse Association is a large, highly successful regional organization that promotes the values of owning and exhibiting Quarter Horses. The object of WPQHA is to promote in all ways the interests of Pennsylvania Quarter Horse owners, to increase the number of PA breeders and owners of quarter horses registered by the American Quarter Horse Association and to help advance Pennsylvania to the position of one of the leading quarter horse states. This is accomploshed through sponsoring AQHA approved Quarter Horse shows, Open shows, Clinics, Youth Team Affiliations, and other equine related events in the area.

​

WPQHA produces 20 AQHA approved horse shows, over the summer, May through August each year. WPQHA also sponsors or facilitates other breed shows, open shows, and special equine events such as Hunter/Jumper Events, Dressage, NSBA, and NRHA. These events attract nearly 30,000 entries annually.

​

WPQHA in recent years, has committed nearly a quarter of a million dollars in improvements to the show complex. This facility is not government owned, or subsidized. WPQHA is one of the few association owned show grounds in the country.

​

The WPQHA's pledge to Quarter Horse Enthusiasts is to provide good, well-run shows offering incentives and premiums to exhibitors at our shows.
