2 General Information Required Health Documents To comply with state animal health regulations and to ensure the health of your horse, the following requirements will be strictly enforced for all horses at the APHA World Show. Check-in will be conducted from September 15 through September 30 in the Stall Office or Horse Show Office. All horses must have their health certificates and Coggins papers checked. All horses must have a: 1. Negative Coggins (Equine Infectious Anemia) dated no earlier than September 29, Health certificate issued no earlier than August 31, 2018, by a licensed veterinarian from the state of origin. These documents will be checked upon arrival at the show office or stall office. Make sure the veterinarian uses registered names on the health and Coggins certificates rather than barn names. If current Coggins, health papers and/or a copy of the original Certificate of Registration are not available, the horse will not be allowed to compete and entry fees will be forfeited. All horses are subject to inspection by the Show Veterinarian or State Veterinarian at any time or if suspected of harboring a communicable disease. The American Paint Horse Association recommends that horses being brought to the World Show be vaccinated for West Nile Virus. Additionally, owners of horses should ask their veterinarians about a booster shot for West Nile Virus. It is important to remember that vaccines that protect your horse against Western, Eastern and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis do not protect against Encephalitis caused by West Nile Virus. If you vaccinate against Western, Eastern and/or Venezuelan Encephalitis, you should vaccinate against West Nile Virus as well. Consult your veterinarian to set up a vaccination schedule appropriate for your horse. Transfer/Lease Policy Transfer/Lease of Horses at the Show: During the show, transfer/leasing of horses competing in the show may be completed. The following regulations must be met: All transfer/lease transactions must be submitted to the APHA MemberCare booth located in the Richardson Bass Building. All transfer/lease transactions must be completed by 5 p.m. the day prior to the class in which the horse is to be exhibited in the new owner s/lessee s name. Show Management will not recognize transfers/leases of show horses that are completed at the APHA home office during the World Show. Note: Per Rule YP-020.C and AM-025.C for the purpose of tabulating all youth and amateur titles and awards, in the event a horse is sold or leased to any party other than related family as specified in Rules YP-020 and AM-020, any points earned are not transferable and a new start in acquiring points must be made by the new owner/lessee APHA Open/Amateur World Championship Show Premium Book

10 General Information APHA Mission Statement To promote, preserve and provide meaningful experiences with Paint Horses. APHA Animal Welfare Statement APHA is committed to the humane and proper treatment of all animals. In this respect: The welfare of the animal is the primary consideration in all activities. Animals will be treated with kindness, respect and compassion at all times. Responsible care will be used by all parties in handling, treatment and transportation of animals. Horsemen and -women, as owners, exhibitors or trainers, will ensure the health and well-being of animals in their care at all times. The standard by which conduct or treatment will be measured is that which a reasonable person, informed and experienced in generally accepted animal husbandry standards and equine care, training and exhibition procedures, would determine to be neither cruel, abusive, nor inhumane. Based on these principles, the Association has developed and enforces strict rules to ensure ethical competition and humane treatment of American Paint Horses. The Association supports the development of procedures that assure equity, fairness, safety, health and welfare for all participants. Because the Association is strongly opposed to animal abuse, any member convicted in a court of law of cruelty to animals may be suspended from APHA when certified evidence is presented to the Executive Committee. Further, APHA reserves the right to excuse from further competition and/or remove from the grounds any person who fails to abide by this animal welfare statement and/or any animal whose welfare is under question by APHA.

11 Sportsmanship Rules For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, he writes not that you won or lost but how you played the game. (Grantland Rice) One of the primary objectives of the American Paint Horse Association is to encourage high moral character and good sportsmanship among its members while at the same time inspiring exemplary conduct in all phases of competition and instilling a sense of fairness and responsibility for the rigors of showmanship as well as the greater issues of life. Negative conduct, including harassment, bullying, or any other form of unsportsmanlike conduct will not be permitted by the APHA, and any person engaging in such action or conduct will be disciplined to the full extent permitted by the APHA rules. Unsportsmanlike or irresponsible conduct or any other form of misconduct that is illegal, indecent, profane, intimidating, threatening, harassing or abusive is prohibited. The APHA will not tolerate such behavior and violators will be excused from competition and/or removed from the show grounds and are subject to further disciplinary action. General Information Anti-Bullying Statement Everyone has the right to work and show in an environment free from harassment or bullying where they feel safe. The stress placed on targets of bullying have far reaching effects on the emotional health and well being of the victims and on the organization in which it occurs. Bullying can be physical, verbal, written, cyber acts or merely psychological. Incitement of others to such acts is also bullying. THE APHA EXPRESSLY PROHIBITS THE BULLYING OF ANY PERSON BY ANY MEANS AT ANY APHA FUNCTION OR APHA RELATED FUNCTION. Good Sportsmanship Rules Good sportsmanship is about playing by the rules, discipline, respect and selfcontrol. Good sportsmanship is not just what you do in the arena, but the way you conduct yourself both in and out of the arena. 1. The Golden Rule Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. Show respect for your opponents if you expect it yourself. 2. Have an understanding and an appreciation of the rules. The spirit of good sportsmanship depends on conforming to the intent of the rules. 3. Enjoy yourself and encourage enjoyment for others. 4. Take responsibility for your actions. 5. Recognize and appreciate good performances, especially by the opponent. 6. Respect the integrity and judgment of the judges and show officials. 7. Expect proper behavior from your teammates, trainers, family and friends. 8. Accept both victory and defeat with pride and compassion APHA Open/Amateur World Championship Show Premium Book 11

55 Stall Information Every horse entered in the World Show must have a stall. Reserving Stalls Stall reservations must be submitted online, postmarked or received in the APHA office by August 1, 2018 in order to avoid late fees. In order to secure a previously held location, your stall reservations must be postmarked on or before August 1. Payment by check, credit card or cash is required at the time of entry. Reservations received without payment will not receive a postmark date and will be returned unprocessed. Payment is deposited upon receipt, but does not guarantee assignment to a requested stall area. Stalls will be assigned through a lottery, based on received or postmark date and priority. The lottery system will continue assigning stalls by the date the reservation is received or postmarked, through the duration of the show. In terms of priority, no difference will be made whether an exhibitor comes for a portion of the show or stays for the entire event. Stall assignments will be based on the stall locations previously established at the 2017 World Show. Priority will be determined by who paid for the stall the previous year. The following is the order stalls will be assigned: Returning individuals whose reservations are received or postmarked August 1 and are requesting their established location. However, if more stalls are needed, it may be necessary for that exhibitor to move to a different area or have two separate stalling areas. Returning individuals whose reservations are received or postmarked August 1, but do not have their established stall location available (stalls that do not exist at the Open/Amateur World Show), will be given preference for the remaining preferred stall locations. Returning individuals whose reservations are received or postmarked August 1 that request a new location. New requests/individuals whose reservations are received or postmarked August 1. Reservations postmarked after August 1 will be assigned in order by received or postmark date. Those wishing to be stalled with trainers or another exhibitor must submit stall reservations together or be sure to put the exact same name in the Stall With section.

The management reserves the right to decline any entry before or during the show without liability for compensation for reasons such as checks written with nonsufficient funds, stopped payment on check, poor sportsmanship, inhumane treatment of horses, harassment of judges, officials, secretaries, ring stewards, employees, and/or any other authorized representative of the show. Sportsmanship/Conduct For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name, he writes not that you won or lost but how you played the game. (Grantland Rice) One of the primary objectives of the American Paint Horse Association is to encourage high moral character and good sportsmanship among its members while at the same time inspiring exemplary conduct in all phases of competition and instilling a sense of fairness and responsibility for the rigors of showmanship as well as the greater issues of life. Negative conduct, including harassment, bullying, or any other form of unsportsmanlike conduct will not be permitted by the APHA, and any person engaging in such action or conduct will be disciplined to the full extent permitted by the APHA rules. Unsportsmanlike or irresponsible conduct or any other form of misconduct that is illegal, indecent, profane, intimidating, threatening, harassing or abusive is prohibited. The APHA will not tolerate such behavior and violators will be excused from competition and/or removed from the show grounds and are subject to further disciplinary action. Anti-Bullying Statement: Everyone has the right to work and show in an environment free from harassment or bullying where they feel safe. The stress placed on targets of bullying have far reaching effects on the emotional health and well being of the victims and on the organization in which it occurs. Bullying can be physical, verbal, written, cyber acts or merely psychological. Incitement of others to such acts is also bullying. The APHA expressly prohibits the bullying of any person by any means at any apha function or APHA related function. Good Sportsmanship Rules: Good sportsmanship is not just what you do in the arena, but the way you conduct yourself both in and out of the arena. 1. The Golden Rule -- Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. Show respect for your opponents if you expect it yourself. 2. Have an understanding and an appreciation of the rules. The spirit of good sportsmanship depends on conforming to the intent of the rules. 3. Enjoy yourself and encourage enjoyment for others. 4. Take responsibility for your actions. 5. Recognize and appreciate good performances, especially by the opponent. 6. Respect the integrity and judgment of the judges and show officials. 7. Expect proper behavior from your teammates, trainers, family and friends. 8. Accept both victory and defeat with pride and compassion.

73 Horse Show Rules, continued Portable Cooling Systems/ Electrical Requirements For stalling, please follow these guidelines provided by the WRMC staff: The only portable water-cooled fans allowed must meet the power requirements outlined below and have a selfcontained water source. The larger fans that require a continuous water source and have higher power requirements may be used in the Multi-Purpose and Moncrief stall area only. There are 5 amps of power available to every stall in the Richardson-Bass and Burnett Buildings. This will basically accommodate one box fan. Multi-plug devices will not be allowed (i.e. plug strip). Only one cord may be plugged into each single outlet. Only extension cords with appropriate GFCI protection will be allowed. Extension cords and power strips may not be used to operate multiple appliances simutaneously. No small air conditioners, heaters, or margarita machines are allowed in the stalling areas. We have limited electrical use; we must provide power to all exhibitors for fan use. If a small air conditioner or heater is reported, it will be turned off immediately and the owner will be asked to remove it. Post hydrants are available for exhibitor use at the end of each row of stalls. These may not be left on indefinitely. They must be turned off after each use. They may not be connected to portable water-cooled fans, misting systems, etc., which require a continuous water supply.
