The first meeting of the
"Southern Miniature Horse Confederation"
was held on February 15, 1992. This
meeting consisted of a small
group of miniature horse enthusiasts and
breeders gathered together
to share with each other their knowledge
about miniature horses.
This was the beginning of what is now a much larger group of
miniature
horse enthusiasts with owners and breeders from
Alabama, Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Tennessee. The members gather
together once each
quarter to share information and knowledge. The club
has now grown
large enough to schedule miniature horse auctions, fun
shows and
AMHA and AMHR sanctioned shows.
Quarterly meetings are
held at club members farms, when possible.
This
makes the meetings more informal and gives
members the opportunity to
visit and see first hand how other farms
operate. The host of each
meeting plans a topic of discussion and may
even provide a guest
speaker, such as a farrier, a veteranian or
other horse knowledgeable
person. Topics often vary from buying
and selling, to breeding and
foaling, finance and taxes, clipping and
grooming, feed and nutrition,
conditioning and training, health, and
preparing your horse for a show.
The Southern Miniature Horse Confederation
continually strives to
provide club members with information and
knowledge that will help
them have the ability to breed and produce
the very best miniature
horses possible for today's industry.
We invite you to join in the fun with us
and become a member of the
Southern Miniature Horse Confederation.
