The United Professional Horsemen's Association is accepting nominations for its annual UPHA Caretaker Hall of Fame. UPHA is proud to offer two UPHA Caretaker Hall of Fame Awards again this year; one presented at Lexington Junior League Charity Horse Show, Lexington, Kentucky in July and the other at the Grand National and World Championship Morgan Horse Show in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in October. These awards recognize the important person working behind the scenes who not only ensures the horses and ponies they look after are given the best possible care but they are a team player who conducts themselves in a professional manner while contributing to the show horse industry.  

Nominations for the UPHA Caretaker Hall of Fame presented at Lexington Junior League Charity Horse Show are due June 1, 2019.

Nominations for the UPHA Morgan Caretaker Hall of Fame are due August 15, 2019.
