Celebration Makes Accommodations For Maiden Entries

TWHNC Press Release

The Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration will allow any Maiden entry to enter by the late entry deadline of July 30th without paying any penalty. Due to the Maiden Finals being held on July 24th which falls after the entry deadline for the 86th Annual Celebration on July 23rd, those entries will be allowed to enter up until the late entry deadline of July 30th and pay the normal entry fee.

The Celebration moved the entry deadline up this year from the traditional date and will take entries in person at the Blue Ribbon Circle on July 22nd and 23rd until 5:00PM CST. For years the Celebration has been asked to create a late entry opportunity with an increased entry fee for those entries that were forgotten and/or for those that have had a change in their circumstances which would allow for them to enter at The Celebration.

“I am glad we found a way to accommodate the Maiden participants and not penalize them for wanting to show in the World Championship show. I want to be clear, the double fee for late entries is not intended as an opportunity for The Celebration to collect more revenue. My hope is that no one takes advantage of the late entry deadline. The late entry deadline and the increased fee came from requests from our customers. The 86th Celebration is lining up to be another amazing show and we are thankful for everyone that plans to enter a horse in the show”
