NSBA 'Show Perks Rewards' Program

 
NSBA announces 'ShowPerks Rewards' program, which allows NSBA members to earn rewards and redeem them at the NSBA 'ShowPerks Rewards' website. The 'ShowPerks Rewards' program provides a point for point match in each dual approved class and reward points will be awarded to the owner of the horse. Rewards points are redeemable for NSBA merchandise at the 'ShowPerks Rewards' website.

How It Works:
1. Show in dual approved classes and earn points.
2. Approximately 4-6 weeks after the show, the points will be available on the NSBA 'ShowPerks Rewards' website.
3. Redeem points towards NSBA merchandise. Starting January 2010, 'ShowPerks Rewards' will replace medallions as awards in the dual approved classes.

Look for the 'ShowPerks Rewards' website to open in April 2010.

Frequently asked questions and answers on the 'ShowPerks Rewards' program.

Smart Points
Beginning January 1, 2010 youth enrolled in the NSBA Smart Points program and riding a licensed horse will begin earning scholarship money in their dual approved youth classes.

Beginning January 1 of 2010, NSBA will take a leadership role in rewarding youth for their participation in NSBA programs. Youth riders will be able to earn scholarship money while riding Licensed horses in dual-approved and other designated youth classes that can be applied to their future educational experiences (College, internships, trade schools, etc.) This program is in addition to the traditional scholarship program already offered by NSBA.

Youth will apply to the program by paying a onetime fee of $25.00 and completing an application form. They will need an NSBA membership and ride a licensed horse in order to earn scholarship money.

Each NSBA point earned in a youth class will earn a money value. Novice Youth classes and points earned by youth in Open classes are not included. The youth will receive an annual print out of earnings. They will complete a form and submit it to NSBA to request their payout when they age out of the youth program (January 1 of the year after youth turns 18). Requests for payout must be made by December 31 of the year the youth becomes eligible for the payout. Any earnings that are eligible for payout and remain unclaimed will be moved to the NSBA Scholarship fund annually. NSBA will utilize the sanction fees paid by the youth to create the 'pot'. Added to this will be the 10% of the trainer sale money which is contributed to scholarships annually
 
Area 3 is pleased to offer competitors NSBA Dual Approved classes at the Spring Classic, Summerama and Summer Circuit shows!
