The Iowa Quarter Horse Association is celebrating their 75th anniversary, and their annual Snowflake Circuit was another opportunity to continue to do so in style!
The IQHA Snowflake Circuit, February 12-15, 2026, at Iowa Equestrian Center, in Cedar Rapids, IA, hosted four AQHA and two NSBA judges: Dawn Kreakie & Kenny Hall (Thursday-Friday) and Austin Gooding & Mike Rapley (Saturday-Sunday).
The show awarded over 100 prizes to exhibitors in addition to circuit and high point/reserve high point awards, and hospitality thrived throughout the show, with highlights such as a popcorn machine in the hospitality room, as well as donuts, snacks, coffee and hot chocolate.
Youth members of the IQHYA were busy collecting donations for their IQHYA Share The Love community service project to benefit the Kirkwood College students pantry. Since it was Valentine’s weekend, a $4 candy gram youth fundraiser gave exhibitors the chance to recognize their loved ones with a small token of appreciation.
