Thanks to everyone who
attended and participated in the 2008 NARHA Region 2
conference
Special welcome to all the new centers, new members,
and new programs like the NARHA Horses for Heroes
projects. Therapeutic riding and equine-assisted
services continue to expand. It’s exciting to be
involved.
Continuing
education is an important element to our expansion
and continuation of the high quality services we
provide. The 2009 Region 2 Conference will be
hosted by Horseback Riding for the Handicapped of
New Jersey on March 13-15, 2009 at Centenary
College, Hackettstown, NJ. The conference promises
to cover a variety of topics on equine management
and equine-assisted services. Please let me know
your interests for the conference and I will forward
your requests to Octavia Brown, Nichola Redmond and
the New Jersey committee.
Don’t forget to
submit your NARHA Award nominations by May 31. The
Rider of the Year and Volunteer awards no longer
require NARHA membership.
Happy Trails,
Ross Braun, Region 2 Rep
