ApHC UK National Show 2017

Thank you to all our members, sponsors and helpers who supported the ApHC UK National Show this year at Warwickshire College.  We had a fantastic show with a lovely friendly atmosphere.  We had slightly fewer entries but lots of classes for everyone including some well supported new ones to do over the two days.  A big thank you also to both the UK and USA judges who both gave us excellent feedback. You will be able to read our full show report in our next newsletter.  Meanwhile if you want to see photos of the stunning appaloosas at the show please have a look on www.simoncoatesphotography.co.uk.  There are also some very nice  photos on members Facebook pages.  Well done to all our competitors who took part.

Heritage Pageant at 2017 ApHC National Show

Remembering the 1877 Ware and Flight of the Nez Perce

A video was taken of this year’s Heritage Pageant which took place at our 2017 National Show and included 11 participants which is available to view on our website.  It includes a very important speech that Chief Joseph made to his people when surrendering to the US Army on 5 October 1877.  This was read out by Tim Keeley.  Thank you to everyone who took part and especially Tim and Janette Keeley who put together a fantastic moving tribute to help us remember this important event for the Nez Perce tribe which is part of our Appaloosa history and happened 140 years ago.  You can also read some further information 'Remembering the 1877 War and Flight' with some interesting facts and figures about the war.  You can also read a transcript of the speech.
