Horse Show Development
New and revived shows are able to apply for a grant to support a newly formed show or a show that is being revived following a period of absence. FAST strongly supports the continue exhibition of our show horse.
Marketing & Promotion
A great deal of misinformation is perpetuated about our horse by animal rights activist groups who are determined to undermine the show horse industry. As a result, the industry must continue to work assertively to brand and market our horse for the versatile, docile and endurance horse that it is.
Scholarships
As funds are available, FAST has distributed scholarships to youth within the walking horse show industry to further their education at the college, junior college or technical school. An application process is required.
