2021 SBHA Meeting

​

We are excited to announce that we will be holding this year's Annual Meeting back at the Beautiful NAN Ranch in Faywood, New Mexico! 

​

This year the Dates of the meeting are October 21, 22, 23 and 24th as we were unable to get our usual dates in September. 

We missed seeing you all last year and are looking forward to seeing everyone!

​

We will be doing things a bit different due to the ongoing pandemic situation.  Everyone will need to contact Betty Lang(575-288-5368) at the NAN directly for your accommodations (www.nanranch.com) and  everyone will be responsible for providing their own meals. 

​

The Board and General Meetings will be held outdoors so we can properly social distance.   More details to follow in our upcoming June Newsletter. 

​

We've had some exciting things happening this year and look forward to catching up with everyone!

..."the WC (Wilbur-Cruce), horses share the greatest genetic resemblance to "Old Spanish" breeds and North African Barb. These horses, based on the analysis I have just done, are probably the best or near best representative of the Old Spanish type that was brought to the New World".
