The North West Emerald AQHA / APHA Show, Home of the NW Masters, took place September 8 – 11, 2022, at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe, Washington.

Judges were: Brendan Brown, Kelly A Smith, Charlie Cole, and Tony Burris.

Exhibitors and staff did not expect ash to be falling from the sky during the show due to nearby wildfires, but they stayed safe and persevered, with superb competition and fun celebrations, and a great time was had by all.

In addition, the show boasted 20 Leadline exhibitors.

“Lisa Gardner does an amazing job with this show. All 20 leadliners received a buckle and ribbon!” says Nicole Slattery-Abilla.

In addition, it was the last show for much-loved scribe David Haring, says Karissa Landis, who also was scribing at the show.

“This show was my Dad’s last WSQHA show scribing after 20+ years of scribing, so the club got him (David Haring) his favorite scotch and he took a pic with Tony and Charlie,” says Karissa Landis.
