There’s no way around it, showing horses can cost major bucks. For parents, hauling their children to events can cost hundreds, even thousands, of dollars. That’s why Brad and Amanda Kelly’s sponsorship, “Crushing the Fees,” under the name of their stallion PS Mega Shine Chic, affectionately known as Crush, is so special. The Kelly’s are known for their support of youth riders and have committed to continuing that special sponsorship at the 2020 National Reining Breeders Classic in Tulsa August 26 – Sept. 6.

This year the Kelly’s, new parents themselves since their son, Carson, was born last December, continue their focus on youth by “Crushing the Fees” for youth entries. At the 2020 NRBC, youth entry costs are paid, including entry, video, drug and judges’ fees, for all ancillary and ARC classes!

NRBC President Tom McCutcheon noted, “With all the expense of showing these days, it’s great that Brad and Amanda are committed to helping our youth. Their commitment helps ensure that the reiners of tomorrow are able to go show, even in these uncertain times.”

PS Mega Shine Chic is a 7-year-old AQHA stallion by Shine Chic Shine out of Megas Sugar Baby. With Dany Tremblay at the reins, he was a 2016 NRHA Futurity Level 4 Open Finalist and 2017 NRBC Level 4 Open Reserve Champion, a two-time NRBC Open Level 3 Champion, and in 2019, won the $100,000 Shootout at the Run for a Million. His first foals will come of age next year. For more information visit the website at crushpsmegashinechic.com.
