What Our Members Say

Wow! I'm impressed. I transferred my new filly online and had an electronic version within four hours and the paper copy four days later—way to go, APHA! APHA's PHcentral process is so efficient and customer friendly.

The APHA office has been nothing but helpful and a pleasure to work with.
Wes WeberCollinsville, MS
I have never felt so welcomed into any organization! I just love the APHA. You all have answered all of my questions without making me feel shy and I have always been met with a smile and encouragement. As a new competitor, I can’t tell you how much this means.
Kristin LoewenthalSonoma, CA
APHA is working harder than ever to foster trust among its members. The transparency that has been created on multiple levels over the past few years is much appreciated and reassures me, as a member, that directors, committee members, club officers, Executive Committee and staff are all working on my behalf.

I just completed the online registration of my colt and I have to say, "Hats off to APHA!" It was very easy and took me only a few moments. Love it!
Delores KuhlweinGlendale, AZ
After owning and showing other breeds for 25+ years, I recently registered my mare with APHA and became a member. Everyone has been super helpful and friendly during the process of getting my mare’s double registration secured. And I just received my first issue of Chrome magazine—WOW! It leaves other equine magazines in the dust! Showing and owning a stock breed horse should be fun and inclusive. Thanks, APHA, for getting it right. I’m so excited to begin my Paint journey!

Clubs, don’t forget about our APHA member benefits! For your shows, the Office Depot/Office Max discount is priceless. I had 75 copies of a 9-page premium done this week to take to our July show, and totaled (print cost, collated, and stapled) $19.83! That is a savings of $85.12 using my APHA discount. FANTASTIC! It’s such a wonderful benefit, and everyone should take advantage of it!

I was in a panic because I had a show in a few days and realized I had not renewed my Amateur card. I called APHA and they were so helpful and reassuring. Best of all, moments later I received my Amateur card via email! APHA’s customer service is second to none—thank you!
Kristin MaceySacramento, CA
Last year was my first year to attend the APHA World Show to compete in the ranch horse events. This year I plan to come back to compete in both the Amateur and Open instead of attending other ranch horse world championship events that I have also qualified for. I want to spend my money where I get the greatest value and fun for my time. No other association offers as many individual ranch horse classes as APHA does. Overall I was thrilled with the show and I’m excited to come back.
