Our family has shown, bred, and raised Arabian and Half Arabian Horses for 39 years. I’m married to Debby with two children and we live in Auburn, NY. on our farm where we currently enjoy our 8 horses. Over the years we have been able to achieve multiple Class A, Regional, AHA Canadian, and AHA National Championships at numerous competitions.
I look forward to helping Cheryl, our Regional Executive Board and its delegates in re-achieving the strong financial foundation that this Region has enjoyed in past years. With my background of being a club president, Region 16 Director for two 4 year terms, AHA Vice-President for 4 years and AHA President for 4 years I have a strong background for serving as Region 16 Treasurer.
I also currently serve as AHA’s US National Show Commision Chairman which is AHA’s largest income producer. This experience should allow me to offer valuable advice to our Region 16 Show Committee as well as insight into the show’s profitability.
Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have and I will try to help.
