Gold Coast Arabian Horse Association’s goal is to promote the beauty & versatility of the Arabian horse and also to encourage support various all-breed equestrian events. They started with several clinics, lectures, trail rides, a tack auction and a potluck dinner; added an all Arabian horse show, as well as a contest for the Club logo. The winning design is still the Gold Coast Trademark and a so
urce of pride for its members. The Gold Coast Arabian Horse Association’s newsletter, Paisa Ahkbar (“Penny News”) was started in 1970. In 1985 Gold Coast AHA acquired its own charter. Over the years the GCAHA Class A show in August which focuses on the amateur exhibitor has become a favorite, providing a fun weekend of classes, Saturday night BBQ, and a half day All Breed Opportunity show. Open all breed classes have also been added to the regular show schedule. Current activities for the Club include group participation in local parades, club promotion at area equine fairs, hosted trail rides, clinics, and special club outings. GCAHA also has an Achievement Program wherein members can earn points towards rewards while enjoying and having fun with their lovely Arabians. Monthly board meetings and committee meetings are open to members and their guests.
