AMHA Annual Convention Begins



The AMHA Annual Convention got underway Monday with a week-long event centered around meetings, seminars, educational forums, fund-raising events, and great Morgan camaraderie. Organizers report hotel reservations are well over expectations promising a very successful gathering of Morgan enthusiasts from across the country.

The bulk of activities will kick off on Thursday with a day-long schedule of off site demonstrations featuring the Morgan horse followed by the AMHI Annual Fund Raising Auction that evening back at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Phoenix.

Friday and Saturday will feature seminars, forums and educational activities located at the hotel. The annual AMHA Awards banquet on Friday evening will honor many extraordinary accomplishments of individuals and groups throughout the Morgan world. And, on Saturday evening, a night of fun and entertainment will focus on the association’s annual Stallion Service Auction. Items for both auctions are now open for bidding at http://www.morganhorse.com/auction.

Stay tuned for more exciting information as it becomes available as we Celebrate the Morgan in Phoenix!
