NKHA’s History
In 1981, nine horsemen and women created the Northeast Kansas Hunter
Association (NKHA), which sanctions hunter horse shows for riders of all
ages and all levels of experience. The circuit was designed to provide a
fun, educational experience for riders in a hunter ring.
The objectives of the NKHA are:
- To further the education of the membership in all aspects pertaining to
hunter competition
- To establish and promote a uniform body of rules governing the conduct of
horse shows sponsored or sanctioned by the association
- To ensure the fair enforcement of such rules for the common benefit of
all participants
- To further the art of riding and to promote and encourage good
horsemanship and sportsmanship
