Region 2
On August 25, Region 2 held a Membership Appreciation party at the Lowe Show Horse Centre. The weather could not have been better. About 85 people attended, including 20 youth who participated in the Youth and Adult judging contest. Mark Stinson was the judge and did a wonderful job with the youth! Debbie Fuentes from AHA came and gave us very interesting information on the Arabian Horse Association, where we are now and the outlook for the next few years. Benji Zalvala and Carlos did an outstanding job on the barbeque. Fantastic food!!! Meaghan Shaffer did a great job in organizing the Youth Judging. A special shout out to her! Jim not only provided a beautiful setting for the party, but was also instrumental in providing nine of the 12 horses for the judging contest. Jim and his crew of riders, handlers and grooms were amazing! Also, Tammy Burkman brought three more western pleasure horses, along with Jill Kramer and Rachel Nelson as riders!
Also announced were the two Region 2 Scholarship recipients. First is Flora Elm Cologne. She is a sophomore at U C Berkeley. Danielle Garcia is a freshman at U C Santa Cruz. Both are outstanding young ladies with outstanding grades and a dedication to the Arabian breed. We are so proud of them both!

Region 17
The Western Canadian Breeders show was held in Red Deer, Alberta June 27-July 01 on the Canada Day long weekend. The show is the annual fundraiser for the Canadian Arabian Horse Registry. Nearly 170 horses competed for championships in jumping, sport horse and main ring classes. The Saturday Night public Showcase was well attended again, with an estimated 400 people attending.
The show was a dual celebration, as it was the both the 60th anniversary of the Canadian Arabian Horse Registry and also of the Western Canadian Breeders Show.
Several fundraising initiatives were also undertaken at the show for the family of Pat Gallahan, a well know farrier from Arizona who unexpectedly passed away this spring. Pat was well-loved, and he worked at the Canadian National Show many times. Well over $1,500 was raised for Pat's family.
The 2019 dates, which will also be in Red Deer, are scheduled for June 27-30, 2019.
See you all there!!
