CARTHAGE , Mo . — Riders of all ages made their way to Carthage this weekend .
The Ozark Quarter Horse Association Horse Show made its return to the Lucky J Arena .
It’s the second set of five competitions for the organization this year .
Riders from the youth to amateur and open divisions competed over two days .
And while some of them were to earn points towards year - end awards and qualify for future competitions like the world shows , association vice president Steve Lyons says , many riders are there just for the fun of it .
“You have to have so many throughout the year to be able to qualify for the world shows , but a lot of people just show up for fun , like any kind of hobby , ” says Lyons , “You’re developing yourself , but you’re also developing the animal , and that’s a process . These horses they become really good , they’re worth a lot of money , so that’s some end of it , they sell them , other people keep them forever , it’s a variation of what you want to do in the business . ”
The next Ozark Quarter Horse Association competition will take place over three days next month from July 8th to the 10th .
