Wild Ponies of the Surf: Winter Edition
This is part of a three-show series that benefits the Chincoteague Pony herd in Virginia. The winter show is open to OF, AR, and CM models of all scales for halter classes.
A championship show will be offered during the Chincoteague Pony Swim, held in the last week of July. Overall division champions and reserve champions, as well as 1st and 2nd place entries from the Chincoteague Pony classes in each show will qualify to enter.
Overall champions from the championship show in July 2025 will receive a set of Chincoteague Pony enamel pins!
- Entry fee: minimum $10 donation to the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company at: Link, who is responsible for the care of the ponies—this donation is also tax deductible
- Send a screenshot of your donation to humcirclestudios@gmail.com
- A model can only show in one class
- Entrants can have up to three models per class
- Please avoid extensive editing and do not use generative AI
- Backgrounds will not be judged—placings will be based on the models only
This show has a private list of entrants that are allowed to enter.
