Years ago, in the mid 1990s, model horse enthusiasts formed a national organization called North American Model Hose Showers Association (NAMHSA). I showed at the first two NANs (North American Nationals) and have several models who have earned National Top Ten placings over the year, some of my pinnacle moments as a collector.
North America is divided up into regions (I live in Region 8) and shows are held on a regional level that allow you to qualify for NAN. I went to two shows this past year and have a bunch of pieces qualified for the 2013 and 2014 NAN (once you qualify, you are eligible for two years.)
NAN will be held in Harrisburg, PA in 2013 and Lexington, Kentucky for 2014 which is where I will go if I decide to show at NAN.
Below is a map of all the NAMHSA regions.
