Ride Your Way to the Equine Lifestyle
Festival in Australia!
The team at Cavallo Horse & Rider wants to
make sure YOU are entered in ACTHA’s draw to win a
free week-long trip to Australia and the Equine Lifestyle Festival this November! (Here’s more on what’s
happening at the festival – briefly!)
If you love horses and have got the travel bug,
this trip of a lifetime will introduce you to the exciting
equine culture “Down Under” and offer you a glimpse
of Australia’s stunning terrain. Enjoy the carefree
Aussie culture, savor a shrimp off the Barbie, see the
Joeys bounding freely…but watch out for those Crocs!
Included in the prize package for a lucky winner and their guest:
• Free return coach Airfare and hotel accommodation
• Free tickets to the 3 day Equine Lifestyle Festival
• Free return train tickets from Sydney to Hawksberry.
Here’s how you can enter to make it happen…
• You will be automatically entered in the draw each
and every time you ride in the Open or Pleasure Division of an ACTHA Arena Challenge or ACTHA
Trail Challenge.
• You will also receive an extra entry if you receive a
Cavallo Judges Pick Award at any ACTHA event.
• Use your Cavallo Hoof Boots to increase your
chances of winning! Just dress your horse up in
Cavallo Boots and ride in any ACTHA event to be
entered once more in the draw!
• Get another entry by hosting an ACTHA event
(AOC or CTC)! Gain an extra entry for each and
every event you host!
*The ACTHA Ride Year ends May 31st - so time is
running out for a chance to win this trip “Down “under”!

Avian influenza!
As you may know there have been a handful of cases of a
very unfavorable strain of AI. Avoid bringing your birds
to known hotspots of the virus and watch who and where
you purchase birds from until the all clear is given by your
local officials or by the USDA. Make sure you are buying
and selling NPIP certified birds! FMI on the precautionary
measures you can take to be part of the solution in containing this outbreak go to healthybirds.aphis.usda.gov or call
