History

The show was founded in 1958.[1] It is held at Ava, Missouri, on the headquarters of the Missouri Fox Trotting Horse Breed Association. The Celebration begins on Labor Day every year and lasts six days, with the final night falling on a Saturday.[2]

Classes

The Celebration holds over 120 classes including both rail and versatility. Rail classes include model or halter, Western pleasure and English pleasure. Versatility classes include show jumping, barrel racing, and cattle sorting. There are trail obstacle classes as well as trail rides that leave from the show grounds daily. Approximately 1400 horses compete there each year.[1][3] The largest class, held on the final Saturday night of the show, is the World Grand Championship. [4]

gollark: Anyway, does your emulator not have a concept of "clock cycles" or something similar?
