Celebrating the Legacy and Making History!
We are gathering in Kentucky at a new time this year! In addition to all of your favorite activities, the Stallion Showcase is back, so plan to bring that special stallion! We also have great news for all Straight Egyptian show entries – the required Straight Egyptian Certification will be complimentary this year, giving owners yet another reason to participate in 2018.
The Pyramid Society is nearly 50 years old, and what better time to “Celebrate the Legacy” of our remaining Founder, Judith Forbis, and the 60th anniversary of Ansata Arabian Stud? From a wonderful breakfast and lecture at Spindletop, a special gala at the Marriott Griffin Gate Resort, to exciting auction treasures with special ties to the Legacy, this will surely be an Event to Remember! Make plans to join us....
