"Not only does our projection of 1,000 events for the current competitive year become conservative, I hesitate to forecast 2015 attendance and event numbers… it’s simply hard to believe.” So states ACTHA’s new President Robin Tilghman.

“ACTHA has implemented new support systems to keep up with the growth. A major one having been implemented this week. A host support call in center “womaned” 13 hours per day 7 days per week…“live” ….to both receive calls and to make outgoing quality control calls,” stated Tom Scrima, outgoing General Manager and new CEO of the American Competitive Trail Horse Association, a 501(C)(3) Not For Profit Corporation.
