Special Update

The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic is rapidly changing the way that we think, act, gather, learn and live our daily lives. Yes, that also means how we play horseshoes. With the most recent declaration from the Colorado Department of Health, effect immediately, no person shall organize or stage events or gathering of 10 or more participants. The Colorado Horseshoe Pitchers Association has cancelled all tournaments through April 19. We will continue to monitor this situation and keep you informed. Please stay in touch by visiting the CHPA website for updates. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call or email me.

Thank you all for your support and understanding,

Vicki Barham, President
Colorado Horseshoe Pitchers Association
