NNMHA General Meetings
July 29 – Clover Cochran will speak to us about riding side saddle in parades, show, and exhibitions. She will bring an English Side Saddle to show along with a Side Saddle Riding Habit, the correct outfit to wear when riding side saddle.
August 26 – Joanne L. Belasco, Esq., President of Tapestry Institute and Director of the Horse-Human Relationship Program – Tapestry Institute’s Horse-Human Relationship Program explores the different ways we know, learn about, and respond to horses. Jo will talk about different ways of knowing (intellectual, experiential, spiritual, mythic, and integrated) and will show us how these ways not only impact our riding and our relationship with our horses, but how they influence and impact our life away from horses.

About NNMHA
Horses are our passion. Without them we would maybe have a lot of time (and moola) to do something else, but most of us have already made the choice...love 'em and can't leave 'em. And there is one thing we have found out along the way...you can't do it all by yourself.
Over 50 years ago a group of horse lovers got together to form an association now known as Northern New Mexico Horsemen's Association. Thanks to the vision and dedicated hard work by a core group of really terrific folks, the facility off Rodeo Road (between the Rodeo Grounds and the Chavez Center) in Santa Fe is available for a wide range of Association activities. Every year the Association members have put on shows, led trail rides, given out scholarships, held clinics and play days.
Monthly meetings (last Wed of every month, 'cept Sept and Dec) are held at Plaza South Side Cafe on 3011 Cerrillos Road, Santa Fe, two blocks south of Siler Rd, next to the Quality Inn. It's a great group to be part of.
Everyone is always welcome at NNMHA meetings or activities. Member or not. We like to think of NNMHA as an important resource of information and opportunity for connection throughout the horse community in Northern New Mexico. See below for membership benefits.
There are about as many ways to participate in NNMHA as you might imagine. By volunteering 2-3 days a year at the Association activities (and/or taking part in them) you get to make new friends, learn something new that will help you with your horse, get to show off your pride and joy in the show arena, and even...ride off into the sunset on one of our sponsored trail rides.
Membership Benefits — All members receive a monthly newsletter (either on-line or hard copy) detailing club meeting minutes, upcoming activities, classifieds, reports from the board members and input from members. Guest speakers are invited to the monthly meetings, depending on member interest. All members are welcome to use the Rodeo Road facility; the two large arenas, round pen, trailer, and receive discounts on stall rental (over 110 wooden stalls), clinics and show office fees. We also have a fun Xmas party and BBQ in the fall.
Membership Fees are set at a reasonable rate: Individual $20, Family $25 for the year.
