OVAHA offers a wide range of activities for both members and non-members. Please visit our Events link for more information on upcoming show, ride, social times or just browse any part of our website for your enjoyment.

Check us out more often to see feature information and articles on our main page called "OVAHA FEATURE SECTION" below.

Some pages are still in progress, so keep checking us out.

Our mandate is to:
Provide a forum for those interested in the Arabian breed;
Promote the Arabian Horse outside of our membership; and;
Introduce the general public to the beauty, intelligence and athletic ability
of the Arabian Horse.
