|  Few things in life can rejuvenate the soul like a leisurely horseback ride on your American Paint Horse.
Recreational riding provides time to
reflect on the day's activities and plan for
tomorrow. It allows you to relax your mind
and body and escape from the hassles of
day-to-day life.
Riding can provide quality time with
family and friends, or private time for
yourself. It helps develop personal character
and promotes physical fitness.

Spending time in the saddle?
If you enjoy riding or driving your
American Paint Horse for recreation, the
APHA Ride America® Saddle Log Program
is for you.
By enrolling in Ride America, you can
strengthen your body and mind while
exploring the great outdoors with your
favorite Paint Horse—all while earning
rewards for the time you spend riding and
driving.
With Ride America, you set your own
goals and measure your own success. Ride
at your own pace and earn rewards for
simply doing what comes naturally—riding
an American Paint Horse.
Ride for personal achievement
When you enroll in Ride America, you
receive an official time log and Ride
America patch. Simply record each hour
you spend riding or driving your Regular
Registry or Solid Paint-Bred Horse and
send your log to APHA. As you move up
through the 14 achievement levels—from
100 to 10,000 hours—APHA records your accomplishments and you earn patches, certificates of
achievement, and discounts on Ride America awards including clothing,
tack and trail riding accessories. In addition, each hour award you and
your Paint Horse achieve is permanently recorded on your horse's
official lifetime performance record.
 Ride America Year-End Award
This new award will be bestowed on the rider in each zone who logs
the most hours annually (January 1 through December 31), and whose
logs are posted by January 10 of the following year. The deadline for
2007 logs is January 10, 2008. Each zone winner will receive a
certificate and a listing in the Paint Horse Journal.
All you have to do is enjoy the ride and
record your progress—we’ll reward your
achievements. So get out there and saddle
up! It’s time to Ride America!
Join Ride America,
for all the reasons you ride.
