PHJ press release by: Rachel Florman
AjPHA Youth from all walks of equestrian life are invited to “Paint the Globe” during the 2016 AjPHA Youth Leadership Conference presented by LubriSyn, February 26-28 in Richmond, Virginia. This annual conference helps bring young horsemen and -women together to discuss industry trends and topics, build their leadership skills and connect with one-another over their favorite subject—horses!
The conference will also include a day trip to Washington D.C. on Sunday, February 28. Advanced reservations for travel must be made, so Youth and chaperones must register by January 19 to be eligible for the day trip.
Are you local to the Richmond, Virginia, area? Take advantage of a discounted $50 rate to attend the conference on Friday and Saturday!
Activities will include a True Colors workshop, discussions with APHA Executive Director Billy Smith, a seminar with Dr. Rick Rigsby, a youth-exclusive Paint Horse Genetics session with Dr. Samantha Brooks, breakout groups to discuss industry trends and topics and a fun, exciting scavenger hunt.
Don’t wait to sign up! The first 25 registrations will be entered to win a pair of Easy Ride Cloud Boots. Additionally, two winners of the LubriSyn Scavenger Hunt will win $500 scholarships, courtesy LubriSyn.
