U.S. Nationals 50th Anniversary Create a Boot Contest
Love cowboy boots? Well, we do too and to help celebrate the 50th Anniversary of U.S. National Arabian & Half-Arabian Championship Horse Show AHA has partnered with Olathe Boot Co. to bring you the first ever Create a Boot Contest!
How It Works:
Print out the official boot template and start designing the boot tops. We encourage you to use your imagination but the design needs to be a clean, simplistic design due to production time constraints. The boot "bottoms" (from the instep and heel down) has minimal production capabilities so needs to have minimal to no design on them. You can color and/or pick out leather choices for the boot bottoms. Once you are done designing your masterpiece, send it to AHA no later than Saturday, July 30, 2016. The winner will be chosen by a panel of five judges and announced August 10, 2016. The winning design will made into a pair of REAL cowboy boots and auctioned off at the 50th U.S. Nationals. So what are you waiting for? Show off your Picasso skills and get designing!
Official Rules:
An individual can submit only one (1) template drawing. Contest will run from May 2016 to July 30, 2016. The winning boot template drawing will be selected by a panel of five (5) judges. The Olathe Boot Co. template can be found at www.arabianhorses.org/usn. An individual may print out the boot template and “design” the boot using pencil, pen, markers or color pencils. The official 50 years U.S. Nationals logo will be part of the boot design. Individuals CANNOT alter, resize or move the logo in any way. Submissions must be in color and can be submitted the following ways:
- Email template to Mikayla.Boge@arabianhorses.org with the subject line “Olathe Boot Co. USN Boot Contest”. Submissions will not be accepted after 12 p.m. MST July 30, 2016
- Mail to:
Arabian Horse Association
10805 E. Bethany Drive
Aurora, CO 80014-2605
Must receive mailed submissions IN OFFICE by Saturday, July 30, 2016.
Winner will be announced August 10, 2016. The winning boot design will be created as a pair of boots by Olathe Boot Co. The finished pair of boots will be auctioned off separately at the 2016 U.S. Nationals. Proceeds will go to Camp Hope of the PTSD Foundation of America and Arabian Horsemens Distress Fund.
***Olathe Boot Co. can alter, substitute or use partial design to create the winning boot due to production time and constraints as they see fit.***
