The Region 12 Spotlight Futurity Preview ...
T
A Night In Monte Carlo
he Region 12 Spotlight Futurity celebrates its 12th anniversary this year and the program has grown steadily and attracted universal praise since it began; its public seeing “good” turn into “better” every year.
With its proven record for being at the forefront of “must-attend” events for years, there’s not much that needs changing other than focusing every year on making sure everything remains as strong and solid as it has been. With an expected prize money payout of almost $170,000 this year, and a successful auction every year (last year brought in over $114,000), it’s a futurity with pretty good odds for winning, in more ways than one. So, for those exhibitors who like to win, it remains only to mark your calendars for May 7-12, held at the Georgia National Fairgrounds in Perry, Georgia. Over the years, the Futurity has become almost synonymous with the Region 12 Show, and that, proponents say, benefits everyone. The program’s popularity attracts exhibitors that bring other horses as well, resulting in well-populated classes across the board and an insight into Nationals competition. “If you’re going to show anyway, because you love to show horses, why not participate in a program which gives you the opportunity to recoup your investment?” says Charles Moseley, President of the Spotlight Futurity. This year’s Stallion auction will once again be available live and online. With an expected attendance of 400+ on Thursday, May, 10th, it will be the highlight of the show, thanks to the planned night of festivities! With this year’s theme of “A Night in Monte Carlo,” you can bet there will be high rollers and a great time had by all. Additional prizes can be had with a Calcutta for the Spotlight Futurity Western Pleasure 3-4 Year Olds class the following day. The Spotlight Futurity is a fantastic way of promoting the Arabian horse, spending time with the community and receiving returns on your love for the breed.

My fellow Arabian Horse enthusiasts! The Region 12 Spotlight Futurity Board of Directors, Officers and volunteers have prepared another outstanding lineup of Stallion power from around the world for our 12th annual Region 12 Stallion Auction. We hope you will join us Thursday evening, May 10th, at Reeves Arena for “Monte Carlo Night!” We have prepared another memorable event to celebrate our beautiful Arabian horse and our great Region 12. Offspring from previous nominated Arabian Stallions will have the opportunity to compete for prestigious titles in a variety of disciplines and an available prize pool of $169,214. One change to this year’s auction … we have brought back the online auction. Over 50 Stallions and counting will be entered into this year’s auction and we will start bidding online prior to the live event. Each stallion that reaches a minimum bid of $1,000 advances to the live auction Thursday evening. Stallions that don’t go live, will be reopened for bidding on the online version of the auction. You don’t have to be present to bid at the auction. Complete the bidders form and provide the names of stallions you wish to bid on, and we will contact you prior to that stallion’s lot number and take your bid by phone. We couldn’t provide such a memorable event without the help of our sponsors.
