No Zone 2 hunter championship this year

The U.S. Hunter Jumper Association’s Zone 2 (NY, NJ, PA) Horse of the Year Hunter Championship has been cancelled.

Scheduled for Oct. 18, it originally was supposed to be held in Harrisburg, Pa., at the home of the Pennsylvania National Horse Show. But that show was cancelled and a search for another venue didn’t work out.

The Zone 2 Committee looked at several options to host the Zone 2 HOTY at a different venue before making the decision to cancel. The hunter championship joins the Zone 2 jumper championship, which was to have been held in September at the Devon. Pa., showgrounds, in the dustbin of 2020.
