The 2020 Annual General Meeting of the Association took place on July 9, 2020.
The NSHJA board of directors would like to take this opportunity to update our members about NSHJA programs in 2020. The NSHJA held their AGM on Thursday July 9, 2020 and the following decisions were made for this calendar year:
- There will be no point tabulations done for the 2020 year due to the fact that there will be no Bronze or Gold EC Shows offered in the Maritimes.
- NSHJA has decided to freeze all awards, incentives and programs for the 2020 calendar year.
- The annual awards banquet for the NSHJA will be postponed until the Fall of 2021
- All NSHJA memberships purchased in 2020 will be honoured for 2021.
About Nova Scotia Hunter Jumper Association
The Nova Scotia Hunter Jumper Association (NSHJA) was formed in 2008 to foster development of hunter jumper events and riders in Nova Scotia. Up until that time the Nova Scotia Equestrian Federation administered hunter/jumper community of the province. The founders knew that our sport was ready for a member association of its own. NSHJA is recognized by Equestrian Canada as the official hunter jumper sport organization for Nova Scotia.
One of the essential responsibilities of NSHJA is to oversee a responsible and unbiased point system for annual awards. NSHJA compiles points earned by members in all divisions held at Gold Equestrian Canada competitions in the province, used to determine the region’s qualifying competitors for The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair®. Awards are presented annually at a banquet recognizing the efforts of our athletes and their horses.
The NSHJA is a member association of the Nova Scotia Equestrian Federation. It is funded by memberships and the levy program administered by Equestrian Canada. Hunter, Equitation, and Jumper programs are developed and maintained by the NSHJA to encourage athlete development.
