What
is the
Iowa
Ranch
Horse
Association?
The Iowa Ranch Horse Association is a group of over 300 horse enthusiasts looking to enjoy their horses in an entirely different type of competitive atmosphere.
Never been to a Ranch Horse competition? No problem! IRHA frequently holds clinics in conjunction with shows, to give newcomers a chance to get their hooves wet before diving into competition.
BUT...IRHA is about much more than just competing...
IRHA members take pride in their association. You don't have to compete in the shows to be considered a "real" member. In fact, you don't even have to own a horse! The organization is dedicated to promoting well-broke, reliable working horses...and the members share a love for that true equine athlete. It's a great group of friendly people, excited about their horses and their association!
The IRHA is led by a Board of Directors, consisting of Officers as well as eight District Representatives. Feel free to contact them any time with questions, concerns, etc...
