Ontario Hunter Jumper Association

While Ontario's ongoing fight against the COVID19 pandemic means that we still face uncertainty ahead with our 2021 show season, we are happy to be able to confirm some critical information for our members. 1. OHJA programs will be running this season. 2. The OHJA will calculate points in eligible divisions. 3. The OHJA will also manage Year End Awards, per the divisions listed on our website. ... As in previous years, all points, programs and year end awards will be administered as per EC rule 113 (Section G pages 8-10). As much as we are already looking forward to our year end banquet, that event will be contingent on the status of the pandemic. Horseshow venues are working hard to put together programs that are fun and safe, and celebrate our love of this sport. We thank them for their hard work, and we hope to see you at a horseshow soon. In the meantime, stay safe and keep your mask on, so that we can be together at the horse shows as soon as possible!

Go to @caledonequestrianpark or @angelstonetournaments and click on the link in bio so that you can make sure your horse’s vaccine papers are in order before heading to shows at either venue.

With news that the legendary Eric Lamaze has withdrawn his name from consideration to represent Canada in the Olympics, the OHJA fam sends him our love and best wishes for his health
