Introduction
Welcome to the Riata Paint Horse Association! The association's mission remains the same today as when it was established:
To collect, record and preserve pedigrees of American Paint Horses,
oversee matters related to breeding and exhibition, and to
create and maintain programs that increase the value of American Paint Horse, enrich members' experiences with their horses, and promote Paint Horses and preserve their history
To us, an educated and active member base is more important than one that is elite and restrictive, everyone should be able to enjoy the incredible experience that is the American Paint Horse on Riata. We are striving to inform as many as we possibly can about this wonderful breed, and to reach this goal, we will be listing loads of new educational resources, new shows, a World Show, and a breeders incentive program.
Spring Updates
- Our seventh season is a little slow getting going, but it's picking up steam.
- We've changed our points scale. You can now keep track of your horses points throughout the year by clicking this link. We will also be tracking Year End Points this year - Top Sire, Dam, Owner, Barn, Breeder.
- We have stopped requiring every participating to be registered. Owners only need to register themselves and their barn to participate in any RPHA function. This also applies to ROM and Year End Awards.
