The National Western Stock Show Youth Equestrian Showcase (Y.E.S.) scholarship program is intended to recognize and support our local equestrian youth and involve them in the educational opportunities of the NWSS. Applications will be accepted until September 30, 2026.

Finalists will create a video showing their skills and detailing the progress of their SMART goal. During the NWSS, finalists will interview with the selection committee, execute their plan for an educational visual display and interact with the public in an educational setting. The Y.E.S. finalists will also be recognized during the NWSS Horse Show.
