ASHA Saddle Time
This is an incentive-based program that rewards youth with gifts and recognition for spending quality hours in the saddle.
How it works
Participants keep track of the time they spend riding. Owning a horse is not a requirement to participate. Special Saddle Time awards will be given when you complete various hour levels. Hours count in the following activities: trail riding, lessons, parades, drill team and non-USEF recognized events and shows (a 4-H show is a good example).
