 Board of Directors Bosque Farms, NM 87068 505-220-2972 BethG@NFHR.com My passion for Norwegian Fjord horses began in the fall of 2003 and they have been a huge part of my life ever since. The NFHR is an important part of our Fjord horse community. In my mind it is different from other breed or equine sports organizations because, like our beloved horses, it serves a versatile community of members with many different interests, goals and aspirations. The versatility of Fjord horses and of our membership are both our strength and our weakness. The NFHR has gone through some growing pains in recent years. I believe it is important to continue working to assure that it is a sustainable organization. I fully support the five purposes of the NFHR listed at the beginning of our Bylaws, including maintaining the registry, promoting the breed, and educating the membership. This includes the services provided by our Registrar, the Herald and the Evaluation program. I am an adult amateur Fjord horse owner and rider. I love nothing more than learning as much as possible about our special breed. I have attended four evaluations in the U.S. and the annual Fjord Horse evaluation in Norway, as well as many horse shows and events. I was on the Board from 2009-2014, as secretary for at least three years. In 2024 I was appointed to finish the term of a member who had resigned. During that time, I spoke with our Evaluators and Evaluators-in- training and prepared a report on the revised Evaluation pilot program. I would like to continue working with the Evaluators, breeders, and members to refine and promote the program. I believe that one of my strengths, gained through being a small business owner and practicing lawyer for 41 years, is in helping people navigate conflict and to be productive. |
