We are excited to present our prize list for the Arizona Winter Circuit. You’ll see a
lot of changes from last year. We have done a lot of soul searching on the winter
circuit for this coming season. For the future of the sport, we are passionate about
ensuring the success of our Arizona circuit. We need to be equally successfully
with Arizona as we are starting to be with our big program in Thermal. So in many
ways I consider this year to be our starting year.
First and foremost, we have changed our team entirely. I couldn’t be more thrilled
to welcome Jay Mullen as our new show manager, Paul Jewell as our new
technical coordinator, and Valerie Beyer as our new office manager. This team
has had enormous success in revitalizing shows such as Arizona. I think a fresh
team is exactly the place to start and I’m confident we have the right new team in
place.
Second, we have resized the circuit to four weeks. We need to grow from a
position of strength and ensure the circuit is the right size. We can always expand
in the future. But we want to see four vibrant weeks this season.
Third, we have changed the schedule significantly. We have upgraded the shows
back to A rated, National level Hunters and Level 3 Jumpers. We’re hopeful that
this attracts more folks back to the circuit. We have also rebalanced the prize
money and added a USHJA National Hunter Derby each week.
We are hopeful that you are as excited as we are with this fresh start and look
forward to seeing everyone in Arizona this season.

I am excited to welcome everyone to the 2021 Arizona Winter Circuit! My new
team looks forward to the challenges and adventures of the upcoming horse
show year. Certain things will remain the same, however there will be many
new and exciting changes that myself and our team think many customers will
embrace and enjoy. With aspirations to create an environment that provides
an individualized “Tucson experience”, we are rethinking certain aspects to
ameliorate the setup of the whole show.
The circuit has been streamlined from six weeks to four, however, all four weeks
are now USEF National rated hunters and level three jumpers. A $2,500 USHJA
National Hunter Derby will be a nice addition to all four weeks of showing. New
jumps are on the way for the hunter rings as well as the jumper ring, including
some beautiful sponsor jumps. I am very open to listening to our exhibitors and
will try my hardest to make appropriate modifications.
As some already know, the property presents some challenges, but our team’s
philosophy, as well as Apex Equisport’s, is to bring you the very best show that
we can. COVID-19 has posed some difficulties for all, but if we work together
and follow the protocols in place, this can be a wonderful small-scale horse show.
AWC will never be a mass event with thousands of exhibitors, and that leaves the
door open for this show to be a very distinctive boutique option for those who do
not want to feel crowded. With plenty of fresh air and ample room to be socially
distant, as well as hand washing stations and restrooms available throughout, with
mask wearing we as a whole horse show family can make this a safe circuit. With
diverse yet similar backgrounds and much experience, all of us will strive to make
the “Tucson experience” one you will always remember.
Yours,
Jay Mullen

Unless you are on a horse, please remember to wear a
mask. Face coverings are required at all time when at the
fairgrounds.

THIS DOCUMENT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SIGNING
The undersigned, as a participant, spectator, visitor, guest, invitee, volunteer, vendor, sponsor, and/or contractor, on his or her own behalf and, if
applicable, as the parent or legal guardian of a minor participant, spectator, visitor, guest, invitee, volunteer, vendor, sponsor, and/or contractor
(collectively “Participant”), for good and valuable consideration, agrees to the following terms and conditions of this Release, Waiver, Hold
Harmless, Defend, and Indemnification Agreement (this “Release”):
1. Assumption of Risk and Waiver: Participant understands and accepts the risks of engaging in Equine Activities (as defined below), as well as
merely being near a horse or pony (collectively “equine”), including, illness, injury, death, property damage, or any other loss (collectively “Loss”)
resulting from faulty tack and equipment, a failure of Released Parties to make a reasonable and prudent effort to determine the ability of the
Participant to engage safely in the Equine Activity or manage safely the particular equine, and/or the result of a dangerous latent condition, as well
as: (a) the propensity of an equine to behave in ways that may result in injury, harm, or death to persons on or around them (ex.: jump, run, kick,
buck, bolt, spin, rear up, strike, bite, stumble, fall, etc.), (b) the unpredictability of an equine's reaction to sounds (ex.: machinery, equipment, doors,
rain, wind, thunder, voices, ATV’s, gun shots, cars, trucks, snakes, etc.), sudden movement (ex.: rider or jump falling, loose horse or dogs, etc.),
and unfamiliar objects (ex.: jumps, poles, barrels, flowers, water, flags, golf carts, etc.), persons (ex.: riders, visitors/guests, spectators, etc.), other
animals (ex.: leashed or unleashed dogs, cats, wildlife, etc.), or other things, (c) certain hazards such as surface and subsurface conditions (ex.:
ground holes, uneven terrain, slippery, hard, or deep footing or flooring, construction material, other dangerous latent conditions of the property,
etc.), (d) collisions with other equines or objects, and (e) the potential of a participant to act in a negligent manner that may contribute to injury to
participant or others, such as failing to maintain control over the equine, or not acting within his or her ability. Participant understands the Loss that
may result from the accepted risks of engaging in Equine Activities or just being near an equine, that equines are powerful and potentially dangerous,
even without warning, and that the risks listed in this Release are just a sampling and Participant is not relying on Released Parties to list all possible
equine-related risks. Participant agrees that no warranties or representations as to the condition or safety of Released Parties’ facility have been
made. Participant agrees that engaging in Equine Activities under this Release includes, but is not limited to, those defined under California law, as
well as petting, leading, feeding, watering, bathing, or grooming an equine, or assisting with any of these activities, and otherwise interacting with
or merely being in the vicinity of equines (collectively “Equine Activities”). Participant understands and agrees that Participant is required to wear
an ASTM-standard F1163/SEI-certified equestrian helmet (“Helmet”) while on an equine. Participant is not relying on Released Parties to provide,
check fitting, or monitor the wearing of a Helmet. Participant accepts responsibility for the execution of this Release by anyone at Released Parties’
facility at Participant’s request, invitation, or permission, whether or not engaging in Equine Activities. Participant agrees to be responsible for
his/her personal health and safety, to purchase and maintain his/her own insurance, remain financially responsible for his/her medical expenses, and
hereby waives his/her right to any claims arising from participation in or observation of any Equine Activities or merely being present on property
owned, leased, rented, visited, organized upon, or otherwise occupied or utilized by Released Parties, regardless of the reason for Participant’s
presence on the property. The following shall be included as Released Parties under this Release: Coachella Horse Park LLC, doing business as
Desert International Horse Park, CHP Land Company LLC, CHP Show Management Company LLC, doing business as Apex Equisport, and each
of their respective parent, affiliate and subsidiary companies, agents, successors, assigns, employees, volunteers, contractors, representatives,
assistants, sponsors, members, managers, shareholders, officers, directors, owners, trustees, licensees, invitees, related entities, as well as any other
person or entity acting on their behalf or in any manner connected with the ownership and management of the above listed parties (collectively
“Released Parties”). Participant acknowledges that he/she hereby waives on his/her behalf and on behalf of his/her heirs and assigns, and fully
understands the effect of such waiver, all benefits flowing from any state statute that would otherwise limit the scope of this Release, including but
not limited to Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing
party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially
affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”
2. Release/Hold Harmless/Defend/Indemnify/Photo Release: Participant agrees to release, hold harmless, defend, and indemnify Released Parties
for Loss incurred by Participant or Participant’s property, even if such Loss is caused by negligence or other fault of Released Parties (except gross
negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct). Participant grants permission for Released Parties to use his/her photograph and video
depictions in any format engaging in Equine Activities and/or related moments.
3. Governing Law/Time Limitation/Attorneys’ Fees/Jury Waiver: This Release shall be construed and enforced in accordance with California
law. All disputes relating to the interpretation and enforcement of this Release shall be resolved exclusively by the state court in Los Angeles,
California. Participant submits to this jurisdiction and venue for such purpose. Participant agrees that this Release does not expire and that any and
all claims and/or causes of actions for Loss by Participant against the Released Parties surviving this Release must be brought within one (1) year
of the date accrued and any claim for personal property Loss is limited to Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250). Participant agrees to reimburse
Released Parties for any attorneys' fees and costs incurred by Released Parties in enforcing this Release and/or in defending or prosecuting any
claims or causes of actions involving, or in any way relating to, Participant. Participant agrees to waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or
claim brought by Participant against Released Parties on any matters related to, arising out of, or connected with this Release.
4. Severability/Modification: If any provision of this Release shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Release
