Youth Club Report:

They are having their Christmas Party at the home of Christina McGurran Saturday December 14th at 12:00pm. As a member of AjPHA their goal is to compete for club of the year. To do so they must do more community service, educate on horsemanship and promote the Paint Breed. Ideas to raise some money: hold a car wash, start a baby sitting club, hold a silent auction at the April Paint Show and donate the proceeds to an undetermined charity.
