The American Quarter Horse Association Professional Horsemen’s Council raised $22,144 for the AQHA Professional Horsemen’s Crisis Fund November 11-15 through an online auction that took place during the 2017 Lucas Oil AQHA World Championship Show. An additional $4,400 was raised at the Lucas Oil World’s Nutrena Ride the Pattern clinics when AQHA Professional Horsemen collected donations at each clinic and AQHA Corporate Partner Nutrena generously matched the donations.
The highest selling item, a breeding to Allocate Your Assets donated by Searles Ranch and Katherine K. Tobin, sold for $1,750. Nearly 80 items were submitted to the auction, ranging from tack and apparel, jewelry, lessons and educational material, to breedings to top stallions and more.
