“I have attended the Bank of America Youth Excellence Seminar for many years as a youth adviser and parent,” says Kathleen Ralls, AQHYA mother and past Virginia Quarter Horse Youth Association adviser. “YES has been the highlight of our children’s AQHYA careers.”
YES welcomes American Quarter Horse Youth Association members and non-members, ages 10 to 18, to experience a three-day, fun-packed event that offers valuable leadership skills, inspiring speakers and tons of fun.
“I really like that YES attendees learn so much about leadership,” Kathleen says. “This seminar also gives the adults an opportunity to share ideas, plan events and gain knowledge about programs and scholarships. As a parent, I have watched my own children, as well as others, gain confidence and make lifelong friends.”
This year, YES will be held concurrent with the 2018 Youth World Cup held in College Station. The American Quarter Horse Youth World Cup is an educational, leadership and competition-based event for AQHA youth members from around the world. This international event held every two years is hosted by different countries. The 2016 Youth World Cup was held in Tamworth, New South Wales, Australia, and in 2018, it returns to the United States.
Check out the tentative schedule of the 2018 Youth World Cup.
Hosted by the 2017-18 AQHYA officers and directors, YES offers a wide variety of activities and features speakers focused on the youth of our industry. If you’ve never attended YES, it’s an amazing opportunity to meet new people, have fun learning about leadership and learn more about AQHA, AQHYA and the American Quarter Horse industry.
