In memory of the late Ronnie Reece, the American
Miniature Horse Association awards the Reece Family Youth Award.
This award is generously sponsored by Dalmar Miniatures, Marlene Smith
and Dale Ferrebee and Homestead Acres, Margaret Kloman and Kim and Jerry
Huddleston. The award is given to an AMHA youth member who

a custom belt buckle.
One nominee will be accepted from each AMHA sanctioned local club.
Individuals may submit separate applications as well. The attached
application must be returned to the AMHA office by September
15, 2010. The winner will be announced at the World Show

Please take the time to recognize a youth member from your area that you
feel embodies the spirit of this award. Please call or email us if
you have any questions. We appreciate your input.

Today the NWMHC sponsors five shows
throughout Washington and Oregon.
We promote interest in showing
miniature horses with our schooling clinic held early each year.
This clinic is followed closely by a schooling show where miniature
horse owners can practice
the skills they learned before competing in
an official AMHA or AMHR show.

Northwest
breeders have produced some of the top driving horses on both the AMHA
and AMHR show circuits. Some of the best driving trainers in the
industry call the Pacific Northwest their home. Many of them are members
of the Northwest Miniature Horse Club. We take pride in the fact
that so many champion driving horses come from the Pacific Northwest. |

Club member for the answer to that question! From parades to
