Welcome!
Welcome to the Montana Cutting Horse Association. The purpose of the MCHA shall be to encourage education in equine activities, interest in cutting horses and to promote the sport of cutting in and around the State of Montana.
NOTICE!
THE YEAR END SHOW IS MMMOOOVING!
Miller's Horse Palace Laurel, MT will now be hosting!
October 6th to 8th
We unfortunately lost our cattle contract in Vaughn, and had to make the hard decision to move our MCHA year end show. The 406 Arena worked very hard to have their facility ready for us, and we appreciate all the effort they put forth. We will reschedule a show there in the Spring of 2023!
We are working on a location for the banquet in the Laurel/Billings area and will let everyone know ASAP.
The General Membership meeting will now take place Friday October 7th a half hour after the conclusion on the show.
Please give us a bit of time to update the website for online entries and show details.
In the meantime please contact Clayton Miller to reserve your stalls & RV plug ins: (406) 861-2064
Thank you, in advance, for your patience with us as we get all the details of the show worked out!
