Ohio Amateur Quarter Horse Association

We are still reminiscing on a 🌟 FANTASTIC 🌟 2026 Little Buckeye!

A huge thank you to An Equine Production and Garwood Arena for their support and guidance not only during the show, but throughout the last year of planning. 🖤

Some of our favorite highlights which we think make our show pretty special:
◾ 5 free exhibitor meals + an ice cream social
◽ Free donuts + coffee every morning
◾ A goodie bag + t-shirt for each exhibitor
◽ An AMAZING awards room
◾ Free arena photos
◽ Ample lunging + riding space

On behalf of the Ohio Amateurs, thank you to everyone who attended - we're ready for 2027!

We are so thankful for An Equine Production, helping to make the 2026 Little Buckeye such a success! 🦄🥳

Thank you to everyone who chose to show with us this weekend! The weather didn’t always cooperate, but the indoors saw lots of action, huge numbers, tough competition, great shopping & so much more!

We, as the OAQHA board, pour everything into this show every year, and love seeing everyone enjoy our efforts from the food, prizes, tee shirts & awards we take all year to plan & prepare for. One can’t forget the FREE web downloads from the talented team at Cody Parmenter Photography that we’re already seeing pop up on our feeds!

My fellow OAQHA Officers & Directors put full effort in, but An Equine Production & Garwood Arena are amazing to work with as well to run a smooth, safe & successful show. It’s truly a team effort, and we are so incredibly proud to partner with them, as well as our generous sponsors to make it all possible.

Get home safe, rest up & we’ll see you in 2027!

Proudly,
Michelle Ceschan
OAQHA President

We think the Little Buckeye is something to smile about too 😆
