ACTIVITIES & NEWS |
 Hello NEPHC Youth Members,
I would like to introduce myself, my name is Zina Slade and I was appointed the Youth Advisor for 2008. Alicia Robertson and Ashley Wener will also be on the Youth Committee. I have been a member of the New England Paint Horse club for over 10 years; I took a small break and competed in the NH Quarter Horse shows along with helping out in 4-H activities. I was in 4-Her myself for 10 years and I then started my own 4-H club that was very successful and rewarding. We had many fund raising events, clinics and fun activities. One activity I would like to introduce to the youth is a costumed riding pattern with music of the rider’s choice. This event was a lot of fun and the children had an opportunity to show some different talents of their horses. Perhaps this is something we can put on at our Futurity Show as our evening entertainment.

Seasons Greetings from Samantha LaPointe
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to all the NEPHC youth members as well as their parents and so forth. My name is Samantha LaPointe, I have been elected 2007-2008 AjPHA Zone 7 Representative. I attend Coe-Brown Northwood Academy, where I am a sophomore. I am on the honor roll almost every term with A`s and B`s. I am currently running for Miss New England Pinto Princess, for the first time. I have played soccer for eight years, softball for three years and track and field for two years.
I have shown Paints, Pintos, and Quarter Horses for a total of fifteen years. I currently own two horses. Ima Shameless Chassis which is my 2001 APHA/PTHA mare; I show her in showmanship and Halter, she is also my broodmare. I also own Invest Ina Chip, my 1999 triple registered mare; I show her in 14-18 classes as well as hunter halter. I am expecting a foal in late January early February from Ima Shameless Chassis. I attended the 2006 Pinto World Show where “Chassis” placed 10 th in stock mares. I Show under the guidance of my trainer, which is also my mom, Karen Albert. I keep my horses at her barn in Nottingham, New Hampshire. My younger sister Ashli LaPointe shows along with me. My oldest step sister shows with us as well. I have been lucky enough to have my best friend move to our barn to begin showing with us, that is Evin Cunningham. Mending Wall Farm has a large show team that ranges in ability, from beginner to advanced.
As your Zone Representative I hope to bring the youth together, as other zones have done. I would like to see the youth do more things together, trips, conferences, and fundraisers etc. It has been ten years since zone 7 has had a representative; I hope to spark interest in youth member to promote more involvement in the association. With the help of the youth zone 7 can be known for their involvement in AjPHA.
I wish you all the Happy Holidays, and a successful New Year!
Thank you,
Samantha LaPointe
