The Missouri Foxtrotter was bred to be
extremely versatile. Today that versatility is seen in the show ring.
Foxtrotters are shown at model, performance and versatility, which includes
horsemanship, reining, ranch horse, and jumping, to name a few.
The Kansas City area offers a number of
shows throughout the year that feature Foxtrot specific classes. In addition the
KCRFTHA sponsors two shows annually. The Spring Show is a foxtrot only show and
often includes a seminar to help riders with their horses. It is held in April.
Our Annual Show is held every August. In addition to showcasing the
Missouri Fox Trotter, it features classes for a variety of breeds, including
Arabians, Quarter Horses and Tennessee Walking Horses. More information on
our shows is listed below.
KCRFTHA Members can nominate the horse
and rider for high point awards which are awarded at our annual awards banquet
held in December.
