First, note that there aren't always model horse shows in your area. Look at Breyer's website (see related links) for a place to check for shows in the Midwest!
What you do is you go to Breyer's website, click on Events (it's at the top), and select your region. Then Breyer will give you the list of things going on near you. Once you pick a show, contact the host or hostess, and ask what you need to bring, etc. Here's the link to go directly to the "region" site on Breyer: http://www.breyerhorses.com/events/
There are hundreds of traditional Breyers, so it would be very hard to list them all right here! However, you can look at Breyer's website (see the related links section below) and see all the retired models, and the current product line!
