Held over Mother’s Day weekend, the show will feature exciting classes—from trail to halter—with cash and prizes, along with a variety of special events to honor and recognize mothers.Patty Elrod, who passed away in 1999, was deeply involved in the equestrian community and made lasting contributions as an educator, 4-H leader, and rancher. She found great joy in raising, training, and showing Quarter Horses, including her cherished horse, "Moonbeam." Patty’s love for horses and her community was matched only by her dedication to family and church, and her influence continues to inspire those who knew her. This event will celebrate her lasting impact and contributions to the equestrian world, her community, and her church.
The SandHills Quarter Horse Show will offer a variety of awards—including fun prizes like adult riding scooters—and will feature special events throughout the weekend to celebrate mothers.
