Hello everyone!<br />

President's Message<br />

I hope this issue of the MM finds you, your families and your<br />

Morgans all well. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas<br />

and happily welcomed in the New Year with your families and<br />

beautiful Morgans.<br />

News to report:<br />

In Victoria, we have had the Melbourne Summer Royal Horse<br />

Show in January. I have to say the MHAA ring would have<br />

been the biggest attendance of Morgans I have ever seen! Great<br />

job everyone, your horses were immaculately presented and<br />

all worked beautiful, so well behaved and I was very proud to<br />

watch you all and catch up with everyone. I am looking forward<br />

to seeing all of your photos in the MM.<br />

Website: The MHAA website has been updated with a wonderful<br />

new ‘Classifieds’ section for people to advertise their For Sale<br />

Morgans, so please go and check it out.<br />

The ANMS is being held in WA this year in March, it will be<br />

here before we know it. Preparations are in full swing, it’s going<br />

to be a wonderful show. It looks like a great venue and I am very<br />

excited for WA as this is their first ever ANMS.<br />

MHAA Positions: There are still a few positions available for<br />

NPO and SLOs in some States; we are really in need of some<br />

people putting their hands up for these roles to ensure our State<br />

members are kept up to date. For more information, please<br />

contact our Secretary, Deb Dowden.<br />

MHAA Horse Deals advertising group campaign: If anyone<br />

is interested in being part of the monthly group advertisement<br />

for Horse Deals, please contact our Secretary, we would love<br />

for you to be involved. We need a minimum number to be able<br />

to run this advert; it’s really important for the promotion of<br />

the breed and for our members to try to support and keep this<br />

campaign going as many people look at it and see our logo and<br />

remember the breed.<br />

I am looking forward to reading all of your stories. Take care<br />

and happy riding with your Morgans.<br />
