NAN Entry Ticket Information

Please use the following formula to help you calculate the total number of cards you need. Calculate your BREED HALTER, NON-BREED HALTER, and PERFORMANCE classes separately.

(# of Classes) X (# of Judges) X (2 Cards per Class) = Cards Needed

For example, if you have a SINGLE judge per class, and have 100 breed classes, your formula would be:
100 (classes) x 1 (judge) x 2 (cards per class) = 200 cards needed

Or, for example, if your show is DOUBLE judged, and you have 100 breed classes, your formula would be:
100 (classes) x 2 (judges) x 2 (cards per class) = 400 cards needed

Based on the formula above, I will need the following number of NAN tickets:

Total Breed Halter Tickets (Green)
Total Non-Breed Halter Tickets (Yellow)
Total Performance Tickets (Pink)


If you need help calculating the number of cards needed, e-mail the show membership secretary at 55sms@live.com.

Extra cards will AUTOMATICALLY be added to your cards count for splits, so use EXACT class counts only! Do NOT include novice, youth, animals, fantasy, mascot, fun classes or collector-group classes in your count.

NAMHSA Show Membership Fee

Please check ONE of the boxes below. Note: FEE STRUCTURE effective as of March 1, 2006.

Greater than 1000 cards would be $70 plus $7 per each additional 100 cards cards or fraction thereof (for example, the fee for 1050 cards would be $77.00)
I need more than 1000 cards, type amount due here:

Application Enclosure Checklist and Rules

I have completed this form
My check or money order for my show membership fee, made payable to NAMHSA or Paypal to treasurer@namhsa.org
My draft show packet including my final classlist; and
My advertising plan is:

I, as said show holder, hereby understand that NAN Cards are issued per my request as show holder by contract made between myself and NAMHSA,with the explicit understanding that they will not be duplicated or reproduced. Any evidence that the NAN cards have been duplicated, photocopied, scanned or reproduced in any manner will make ALL cards from said show null and void.
Initial here to agree to the above:


PLEASE NOTE that it is crucial that you submit this application page with your classlist, show packet, and an accurate class count to the NAMHSA secretary. There have been a rash of applications lately where the showholder has made a mistake in the class count, forgotten to state that the classes will be split in some manner and failed to reflect this split in the class count, or simply didn't send in a class count altogether. You will need an ACCURATE class count to get the right number of NAN tickets!
