Appalachian Trail Live 2026

Welcome to the home of Appalachian Trail Live 2026, a live model horse show on Saturday, November 21, 2026 at the PA Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg, PA.

ENTRY INFORMATION: **We have 3 spots left as of 9/13/26! Entries are opening June 13, 2026 at 3 pm to the first 75 paid and completely filled out entries. To enter please send an email with your full name, email address and “I want to enter” to AppalachianTrailLive@gmail.com. I will then send a link with the JotForm that will need to be filled out and submitted and payment received to confirm your entry. PayPal F&F or mailed checks (please no money orders as those are harder for me to deposit) accepted; $35 bounced check fee applies. Those addresses will be provided on the JotForm.

**Please note that you do NOT need to immediately fill out the JotForm and pay to be entered, just in a timely manner (a week or so). I just need an email confirming you want to enter to start.

Please note the Stone class list has been divided into two parts: OOAK/YCI and Runs/DAH to allow for more equitable competition and NAN qualification with the extreme customs and artist OOAKs they have been releasing. Any run of more than one piece or a Design a Horse that was not promoted as “extreme” will go in the Runs sections. OOAK, You Call It, and Extreme DAH all go in the OOAK section. Please bring out your RR Stones!

Update 7/28: I made a couple small fixes to the classlist including replacing a redundant Spanish class with a missing Exotics class in resin and fixed a numbering issue. These are highlighted.

Contact email for the host, Mary Menut, is AppalachianTrailLive@gmail.com

LUNCH INFORMATION: The boxed lunch will contain a premium sandwich (there will be three choices, including one vegetarian), chips and a drink. The venue does not allow outside food to be brought in.

Accessibility information for the show:

The room is located in the spot labeled as “Banquet Hall and Commonwealth Lounge” on this map on the 3rd floor. https://www.pa.gov/content/dam/copapwp-pagov/en/farmshow/documents/events/plan-an-event/documents/2026-2027%20farm%20show%20complex%20event%20guide.pdf

It is accessible via walkways and stairs or elevators from the Cameron St lobby. You can unload at that door and then move your car to the lot by going out to the main road and around to the North parking lot to the left across from HACC.

I will be renting several carts for everyone to share for unloading purposes, but feel free to bring your own to avoid a wait. Please do not leave belongings unsupervised outside. The security desk is just inside the lobby.

If you require mobility assistance such as a wheelchair to get to the room security will be happy to help. It is a bit of a walk. I also have a husband who doesn’t know anything about model horses, but can assist those who need help getting up to the room with their totes.

Anyone who needs to be front row to rings who hasn’t already talked to me please let me know and I’ll make sure you’re as close as possible

DONATION RAFFLE!

There will be a donation raffle at the show with a special prize. Bring anything from Nobody’s Cat’s wishlist and get an entry for the raffle.
