Region 13 is bringing back Endurance and Competitive Trail. The Region 13 Championships will be August 8-9, 2020 at Kensington Metro Park in Milford, Michigan. The entry form and information will be available on the website soon. Questions should be directed to Mindy Nagy the Ride Manager at melindasmyers@gmail.com.
We are very excited to have competitive trail and endurance in the Region again. This event is also a fundraiser for Detroit Horse Power. Detroit Horse Power is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2015. It opens up opportunities for urban youth in Detroit to connect with learn about/from horses. They learn how to care for them, ride them and in doing so the children learn perseverance, empathy, responsible risk-taking, and self-control. This program started as a summer camp and has grown into a year-round after school program. Right now the kids are bused to participating barns that volunteer their facilities and horses. It makes a long day for these dedicated kids. Recently DHP acquired land with the Detroit city limits. Their hope is to raise funds for an equestrian facility to be built at the location. Having this facility within the city limits not only utilizes vacant land in Detroit, helping with the city’s comeback, it will allow DHP to expand the number of children who can benefit from the programs offered.


The Region and the Arabian horse world has lost a wonderful lady. Linda Mehney, of Grand Rapids, MI and owner of Grand Arabians, lost her battle with Covid-19 on April 4, 2020. Linda was a long time breeder and supporter of Arabian horses. Her beauty and kindness will be greatly missed. Her memory will live on through her beautiful Arabian horses. Our condolences and prayers go out to her family.

“An unexpected crisis can happen to any of us at any time, and we have little control,

Mission Statement:
To bring representatives from each AHA Region together to collaborate and execute plans to reach the following goals:
First, introduce new people to the Arabian horse through first-touch programs such as TAIL Tours,
Meet an Arabian Horse Days, farm tours and similar others.
Second to convert those first-touch event attendees to the next step of joining a lesson program, volunteering
at a local barn or other engagement with Arabian horses. And last, to encourage ownership and/or lease
of an Arabian horse and continuation of the attendees interaction with Arabians. Visit our page and join us!

As Corona Virus has virtually shut down the world, all Club shows in Region 17 have been cancelled this spring. At this time the Region 17 show is still booked for June 23 - 28 in Red Deer Alberta. If the show is a go, then there will also be a pre-show. Information can be found on the regions' website https://www.region17.com/region-17-show


About Us.
Region 17 is a member affiliate of the Arabian Horse Association (AHA), the North American governing organization dedicated to promoting and preserving the Arabian horse. Geographically, Region 17 is the largest of the 18 AHA Regions, covering all of Western Canada and comprised of four provinces - Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba & Saskatchewan, and three northern territories ...

This regional show will include: sporthorse and dressage classes as well as Hunter over Fence, trail and ranch riding. There is also a full slate of main ring classes. The show will also feature jackpot classes, the Region 17 Select Stallion Futurity classes and some fun classes.

We hope and pray everyone is keeping well and that this virus will settle down soon.
