You might have noticed we ran a team’s challenge at Q15 and NSW
State Show. This was an event enjoyed by all participants, and the
winning team received an AQHA voucher and a voucher to Equine ID
Solutions.
Thank you very much to the AQHA and Jade Thomas Spicer from
Equine UD Solutions for your support. We are hoping to continue to
run these teams challenge events at future shows.

We are also looking at running another survey to find out what you
all think about the clinics we held last season and what else you
would like us to focus on.
Our mentor program is also going to get put to use this year and I
would like to start by please asking all amateurs to use our amateur
division email address with any questions you may have,
