All Youth members receive this in addition to the main news. It serves to: run quizzes and competitions, keep members up to date with the latest news and gossip, profile Appaloosa studs and horses, spotlight a member each issue, share stories, views, advice and tips. and has even recently acquired its own cartoon strip - 'Kesey, etc.'. A summary Youth Spotlight also features in the main news, so your achievements don't go unnoticed by the rest of the club.
More and more features are being introduced all the time. We take notice of your opinions and suggestions, because you are the Appaloosa owners of tomorrow. Above all, the Youth division aims to provide a friendly, personal and approachable service.
