Celebrating Excellence:
The Wisconsin Pinto Award Program

If there’s one thing Wisconsin Pinto is known for, it’s our Awards. We believe that hard work, dedication, and passion deserve to be celebrated, and we go above and beyond to make sure our members feel just how valued they are.

Our prizes are selected by exhibitors, for exhibitors, ensuring they’re not only meaningful but also useful and exciting. From our weekend high points to our year-end award programs, there’s something for everyone to set their sights on and work toward.

In 2025, we were proud to award our first-ever free equine registration to an unregistered horse, and we’re thrilled to continue that tradition in the future.

At Wisconsin Pinto, we celebrate the true spirit of the “all-around” horse and exhibitor team. To us, an all-arounder is a single horse and exhibitor working together throughout the year, showcasing their versatility, dedication, and partnership across multiple disciplines. We are honored to recognize and reward these remarkable teams as they grow, achieve, and shine — together.
