The August edition of 'Endurance News', the magazine of the AERC (American Endurance Rides Conference) features a page long article about the Akhal-Teke entitled "Meet the Breeds- Akhal-Teke", by Cathy Leddy.  The article was suggested by Tim Floyd, who also acted as an editor and the original article included interviews with ATAA Endurance riders, Jas Shearer-McMahon and Connie Rawski.  As printed, those weren't included, but perhaps they will be in the online 'Extra' that the AERC puts out. 

This year, 2 Board positions are open:  Amrita Ibold's and Tish Saare's.  Both ladies have done a fabulous job and we hope they will continue, BUT, if you think you might like to be part of a friendly, dynamic Board, and have been an ATAA member at least since March 31st of 2015, please let our Election Committee know. 

Election Committee:  Jas Shearer-McMahon jaslivco@aol.com and Patricia Johnston deepconsensus@gmail.com


Terms run for 3 years and we do most of our communication via email, with occasional Conference calls.  For more info, please contact one of the Election Committee.
