CLINICS

Schooling Shows – All Breed

GCAHA hosts a number of schooling shows during the year which are open to all breeds.  In 2023 Gold Coast has scheduled two All-Breed schooling shows in the Spring, with a possibility of one more. Dates are under consideration for two shows in the Fall.
See the Shows page for details and to download all the forms.
These shows provide an excellent venue for horse owners to school their horses in a friendly show environment, permitting certain training aids to be used.  Classes usually include both Western and English disciplines. The class list can vary and are uploaded to the Show page.  Some shows may include leadline, showmanship, western horsemanship, and ranch riding classes.  Check Calendar for dates and show updates.

Arabian Show

Gold Coast AHA has suspended hosting of the Coast Classic show. The Board will monitor the trending show situation for a possible show in a future year.  Check back later in 2024 for more updates on the show status.

Parades

In past years the Club has proudly participated in local parades including the Gilroy Memorial Day celebration and the Morgan Hill Independence Day celebration.  Parade viewers especially like the colorful Arabian native costumes worn by some of our riders.  It is a good venue to display our beautiful Arabians. If you have an interest in participating in a few hours for fun, Email Michelle to get details for the parades.
