Amateur Riders! ✍🏼📣🐎
This opportunity is for YOU!

We are hosting the very first PFHA Amateur Weekend Retreat!

This weekend was created directly from feedback we received from YOU through our amateur survey. We wanted to build something centered around connection, education, encouragement, and community for PFHA amateurs — and we truly feel like this event does exactly that.

Join us for a fun-filled weekend featuring:
✨ A Friday evening welcome dinner & social gathering - BYOB for some extra fun 😉
✨ A clinic with renowned trainer Shaw Laney
✨ Insight from 2026 Grand National Show judges Derek Fernandez & Cindy Griffith
✨ Great food, fellowship, learning, and LOTS of horse talk

Whether you’re brand new to the breed or have been showing for years, we hope this weekend creates an opportunity to learn, grow, and connect with fellow amateurs who share the same passion for Paso Finos.

📍 Cedar Lane Stables – Enoree, SC
📅 July 10–11, 2026

🎟 Tickets are officially available now! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-amateur-weekend-retreat-tickets-1990013281294?aff=oddtdtcreator
