"Serving and promoting the best interests of
Arabian Horses in North Carolina"
Arabian Horses in North Carolina"
The North Carolina Arabian Horse Association was formed in 1969 to unite North Carolinians interested in Arabian horses and that wanted to promote Arabians and Part-Arabians through breeding and showing. The first meeting of the association and its founding members was held June 8, 1969 in Asheville, North Carolina. Since that time, the association has continued to grow. The NCAHA continues to promote Arabian horses through shows, awards programs and challenge series for its members and its goals have remained the same since its creation:
- To serve and promote the best interests of Arabian horses in North Carolina;
- To promote interest in Arabian horse breeding;
- To promote interest in Arabian horse showing;
- To sponsor horse shows, various Arabian horse projects and other programs;
- To improve the quality of Arabian horses;
- Otherwise to assist in connection with the promotion of Arabian horses in North Carolina.
