THE ALHA PRESIDENTS CUP 

Whether it is held by the ALHA, other groups in the Light Horse community, the local Agricultural shows, Tentpegging Competitions or even the Royal Shows, competing at these various events is a great way to keep our history alive, display our skills and have a lot of fun along the way.
