Southern Miniature Horse
Confederation |
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
enthusiast 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 become large enough to schedule an annual miniature horse
Auction, Training Clinics and Seminars as well as
AMHA, AMHR and Pinto 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,
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.
