Parkland Horseman’s Association (PHA) and The City of Parkland will not be held responsible for any accident that may occur to, or be caused by, any horse exhibited at the show, or for any article of any kind or nature that may be lost or destroyed in any way. Each exhibitor will be responsible for any injury that may be occasioned to any person or animal or damage to any property while on the grounds by any horse owned, exhibited or in his custody or control, and shall hold harmless PHA and The City of Parkland, its officers, directors, employees, and elected officials, individually and collectively, cosponsoring organizations, if any, from and against all claims, demands, cause of action, cost, charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever arising out of or which may be incurred by reason of any accident, injury or damage to person or property caused by the ownership, exhibition or custody or control of any animal exhibited.

PHA advises all riders wear protective headgear which meets or exceeds the quality standards of the SEI CERTIFIED ASTM STANDARD F 1163 Equestrian Helmet with strap while on horseback throughout the show. Wearing of such headgear may reduce severity of head injuries as a result of a fall from a horse or other occurrences. PHA follows USEF and AQHA discipline guidelines for helmet requirements.
