The best American Saddlebred Links on the Internet |
What is the Mad-City Nickers Youth Club? Its the American Saddlebred Horse Association youth club located at La Fleur Van Ess Stables. At monthly meetings, lesson kids learn about horses (specifically saddlebreds) through fun, factual activities. Sometimes we take field trips to horse-related events in the area. Recently we have attended the Midwest Horse Fair, the Madison Classic Horse Show, and W.I.S.H.S. horse show. Interested in attending? The next meeting is April 12th at 12:00. We would love for you to come join us! |
