Message from out president below picture
Hi all
As many of you probably know, Diamond 7 has been sold. The new owner is in the cattle business and does not wish to host our shows. We wish to thank Jeff, Liz, and Kate for hosting the miniature horse shows for 9 years. You are the best! We wish you the best in this next phase of your life. We will miss you all.
We were contacted by Adele Stevens of Keystone Horse Center in Bloomsburg, PA (https://www.keystonehorsecenter.com/) . She had heard about our predicament and had wanted to host a miniature horse show for years but was friends with Jeff and Liz. Yvette Mooney and I(Lynn Gulledge) toured the facility. It is beautiful! It will more than meet our needs. They are very accommodating and want to help us be successful.
So, plan on joining us for the ODMHC Spring Thaw May 15-17, 2026, and the ODMHC Summer Sizzle June 19-21, 2026 (pending AMHA and AMHR approval). There are many hotels, restaurants, TSC, Walmart etc within 10 minutes. We will compile a list in the near future.
Also, this will be the club’s 15th anniversary. Rumor has it that there may be a few surprises in store. Stay tuned. Don’t hesitate to contact Yvette or me if you have any questions. Hope to see you all there. Lynn

About our club odmhc
Welcome to the Home of The Old Dominion Miniature Horse Club (ODMHC)
The Club was formed in 2011 to promote and stimulate the sale, breeding, exhibition, and ownership of the Miniature Horse in Virginia and beyond.
One of the goals of the Club was to bring a sanctioned AMHA/AMHR show back to Virginia.
In 2013 we had The Summer Sizzle it was well attended by participants, their families and spectators. We had over 150 horses at the show. Horses from New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, New Jersey and Virginia competed, some to qualify for the AMHR Nationals and AMHR World Show.
We moved to a new Venue for the 2016 Spring Thaw Show, the Virginia Horse Center in Lexington, Va. The 2017, 2018 and the 2019 shows were well attended and set new records in attendance.
Due to increased fees at the Virginia Horse Center and in order to keep costs low for participants, we moved the show to the Diamond 7 Ranch & Arena in Dillsburg, PA.
The 2021 Spring Thaw was well attended. I'm sure everyone was ready to get out of there houses. We are glad you were able to make it to the show!
Get Involved
We are always looking for new members and volunteers to help us make our vision a reality. We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you.
Thanks for stopping By!
If you have any ideas to help make our club better please let us know. Will see what we can do.
