With those survey numbers in mind, the association, based in Fort Worth, Texas, says it's stepping up its efforts to satisfy that portion of the membership. To that end, it has added a second trail ride to the 2001 schedule. Neb. For 10 years, the APHA has hosted a trail ride for its members and encouraged the members in its 111 regional clubs to organize trail rides. Whether they're out on the trail with us in Nebraska or Missouri, or on the trails in their local communities, we want people to have outstanding, memorable experiences on their Paint Horses. For those who want to ride on their own, the APHA has developed a program called Ride America.
Members can also earn saddlebags, halters, lead ropes and saddle pads.
The APHA also provides a free booklet, entitled Guide to Recreational Riding, to help trail riders. This 36-page booklet contains information on the importance of keeping your horse in shape and commonsense safety guidelines. Please read our Privacy Policy . Advertise with us .
