Record Entries for Morgan Grand National
Tuesday, September 18, 2007
A record number of entries have come in for The Grand National & World Championship Morgan Horse Show! And, exhibitors will arrive in Oklahoma City to a fresh new look in 2007.
Show Chairman C. A. Lee, III along with Show Manager Fred Nava and Executive Committee member Jim Stewart, recently traveled to Oklahoma City to check out the progress.
“We were all quite pleased with the progress and look forward to a great show this October,” reports C. A. Lee, III. “It will be a new world for us all as we all get acquainted with the new facilities but it is going to be fantastic!”
Due to the many changes, all exhibitors will be required to check in at the show office upon arrival at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds. The show office will be located in the new Barn 3 office area next to the new full-service restaurant and sales pavilion. Stall assignments will be passed out at that time.
Additional information on the new barn and new stalls in Barns 1 & 2 will be available at www.morgangrandnational.com.
If you are unable to come to Oklahoma City in 2007 for this monumental Morgan event, you don’t have to miss a single minute of the excitement. In cooperation with the American Morgan Horse Association (AMHA), The Morgan Horse magazine, WdA Video and Hawk Multimedia, organizers of the 2007 Grand National & World Championship Morgan Horse Show are proud to announce their plans to once again bring this premier Morgan horse show LIVE to you via the World Wide Web.
“We are very excited to offer the show live on the Internet again this year,” said Show Chair C. A. Lee, III. “With the addition of Barn 9 classes to the offering, this will give friends and family at home the opportunity to share in ALL the excitement and fun of what is shaping up to be the largest Grand National & World Championship Morgan Horse Show in history.”
All sessions and classes held in the Main Coliseum, Barn 6 Arena, and Barn 9 Arena will be available for pay-per-view beginning Saturday, October 6th and continue through Saturday, October 13th.
