The tack swap hosted by the Ohio Paint Horse Amateur Club went great according to my friend Nancy Vanco. She said the attendance was steady. Two of her saddles were also sold that weekend along with some other odds and ends. She herself even bought a new showmanship outfit.

The exact amount of money that was made from selling table spaces and money collected at the door is still unknown. Those figures should be coming in shortly. The money made from this event goes into the Amateur clubs account. It is then used to purchase judges for our shows, the grounds, hotels, and so on. This money is also set aside and held till the end of the year and put towards the purchase of year-end awards.

For five years now the Ohio Paint Horse Tack Swap has been going strong. Hopefully they can continue their success.
