From the AHP President

It was great to see all of you that were able to attend this year’s AHP seminar in beautiful San Diego’s Mission Bay. The venue was amazing and I enjoyed the sessions that I was able to attend. Ever since my first year of finally deciding whether to pay my printer or attend the 2000 seminar in Irving, TX, I have never looked back. AHP’s seminar has always paid me back (and my printer) by learning new ways to help my publications become better and stay profitable. Even now where we are still facing uncertain economic times, going to the seminar has helped me with new ideas to help my business. Plus, I usually meet new advertisers and I always have fun spending time with all of our equine media members.

I encourage all of you to take advantage of next year’s seminar, May 31-June 2 in Colonial Williamsburg, VA. You can visit the AHP website and view the San Diego seminar program to see the sessions AHP offered. Also the AHP seminar blog has some reviews from our members, beach horseback tours and more. 

Be sure to let me or any of our board members know what you’d like to see from your organization. AHP is one of the best run associations I have ever been involved with. Chris Brune our executive director and her sister and assistant Judy Lincoln are outstanding and keeps everything running smoothly.  

May you all continue to thrive and succeed in our wonderful equine media publishing industry.
