We celebrate all disci- Wplines and levels of competition and encourage enthusiasts to join our club and get involved. According to a study funded by the Idaho Horse Council (released in 2016), the size, scope and economic impact of the equine industry on Idaho is as- tounding. The report states, “Expenditures associated with equine totaled $122 million, including $49 million in hay, straw and grain, $23 million in veterinary and farrier expenses, and $10 million in horse trailers.” And, “Equine owners had a total of $1.4 billion in assets related to equine, including the value of the equine, barns and equipment.” Quarter Horses make up roughly 1/3 of the horse population in Idaho and we are thrilled to do our part in promoting the American Quarter Horse. As you will see from the pages of this magazine, there are many horse activities that are taking place throughout the year and we encourage you to come and bring a friend! As President, one of my focuses will be to build new partnerships and affiliations with other organi- zations in our region in order to expand opportunities for our members. Please be sure to take advantage of our “Membership Value” (See Page 25). Discounts and savings are available to you as members from our partner merchants, who help sup- port our great horses and the community that surrounds them. Your membership dollars help promote the American Quarter Horse and support and encourage our youth (Idaho Quarter Horse Youth Association) — Thank you!
