Hello TQHA,
Congratulations to all of our 2012 year end award winners who
received their awards at the convention held in Cookeville this
January. Jerry Allen planned our convention & Lisa Rand did an
outstanding job decorating. Many thanks to all of the volunteers who
donated desserts, supplies, and worked to make the event special.
This year we tried something new instead of having a banquet meal
we had a dessert bar. This was done to reduce cost and to encourage
more of our membership to attend. After the awards we enjoyed a
great D.J.
Thank you to the amateur association who bought pizza for lunch
for everyone who attended the convention.
Our show season starts on March 8,9, and 10 in Harriman with
the Spring Celebration Circuit. This will be followed by our novice
show that will be held March 16 and 17 in Harriman. At the novice
show we will be trying something new due to a grant that we
received from AQHA. We will be having and IEA clinic along with 6 IEA
classes. You don't have to own a horse to participate, but you are
required to attend the clinic. Anyone interested in volunteering to
help at the novice show can contact me at [email protected].
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Pam Holbrook on the loss of
her husband, Charles. Charles has been a long time TQHA member
but most of all he was my friend. We will miss him.
Good luck to everyone this show season and remember if all else
fails just ride fast.
Happy Trails,
Amy Bailey

Highlights from the TQHA Convention
Another great year and another great convention! This year our TQHA Convention was held in
Cookevile at the Baymont Inn. The 2012 Board had its final meeting with Randy Woodell serving as
President on Friday January 11, 2013. Randy did a fantastic job as our president. He was always there to
hear our concerns and complaints, yet being the first to pitch in and get the job done. During his term, the
sliding doors were added to the barn and arena at Harriman with the help of Steve Fowler and a few
others. Thankfully, he will still be around to just have fun, now that his term is complete.
Our Convention started out with the Youth and Amateur meetings in the morning that were held
simultaneously on Saturday morning January 12. The general meeting was held in the afternoon with
reports given from each Committee. The Directors gave reports as well. Patrick Kayser gave a very good
presentation on the “leveling” in AQHA and answered many questions and concerns with the
implementation of this new system. At the end of his presentation, many felt comfortable with what was
to come. However, most felt that until the system was actually implemented for a couple of months, there
would still be a learning curve to overcome. Roger Elder gave a presentation on the humane treatment of
animals on the show grounds, as well as the penalties for such abuse.
Randy Woodell reviewed the by-law changes and they were voted on, there was a break for the
election of Regional Representatives and Committee Chairs. Following that break, the general session
reconvened for the election of TQHA Officers and the need for a Secretary / Treasurer was discussed (as
Barbara Fisher was retiring from the Secretary position and now it would be combined with the Treasurer).
The general meeting was then adjourned and the majority of our members went out for dinner on their
own.
After dinner out we came back to the Baymont Inn at 7pm to be surprised by the beauty of the
“Presentation of Desert”. I must confess, I was not prepared for the splendor of what we experienced that
evening. Everyone was having such a wonderful time sharing stories and catching up with folks they
hadn’t seen since the September show. It was so nice to see everyone just relax and enjoy themselves.
Many thanks to Lisa Rand and her band of helpers for all of the love and hard work involved in preparing
such a grand display for our sweet tooth!
The Awards presentation came at last! We were so glad to see those beautiful awards presented to
those who had worked so hard to receive them. Wow! Those belt buckles were out of this world!
Congratulations to everyone! Barbara Fisher was honored for her many years of service to TQHA. We will
surely miss her, but we know that she will enjoy her retirement. Well done, Barbara!
The night wrapped up with the young and old folk dancing the night away to a local DJ.

So many of us have come to know Barbara Fisher as the “go to” person for TQHA, it will be hard for us
all to realize that she has actually retired. Yes, believe it or not, our Barbara has decided it was time to
retire after giving nearly forty years to the horse industry.
Back in 1975, Barbara and her husband Glen Fisher had a small farm with several acres and stood three
Quarter Horse studs. They were visited by Bob Barker, who urged them to become members of TQHA and
so she became a life member in AQHA as well as TQHA. Glen did most of the showing and so there was a
lot of down time for Barbara at the shows. I have to say that I have never known Barbara to just sit
around, and I imagine in her younger years she was really a go-getter! She began by volunteering in the
office, and then became a show secretary. She wasn’t paid much, but she kept busy.
Eventually she became more involved at the state level and became the TQHA Executive Secretary for
ten years. She resigned that position to do more Show Management. Before long she again accepted the
position of Executive Secretary, for another ten year run. She has also served TQHA for two years as our
President.
She has served on the TQHA Board for as long as anyone can remember. Even slipping out of the
hospital long enough to attend a Board meeting and then returning before the nurses even realized what
had happened. That kind of dedication is scarce now days.
She is still going to keep the “Circuit by the River” show at the Expo Center in Harriman, TN which is
held each year in April. It is held in conjunction with the State of Tennessee 4-H Horse Judging competition.
Barbara has long been a passionate supporter of the youth and has given so much of her time over the
years along with monetary support.
When I asked Barbara what she would miss the most after retirement, she did not hesitate to answer,
“The people”. And she does love us all. There are so many times when I have personally seen her handle
someone who was a little “hot headed”, and turn around to the next person, fresh as a daisy, with that
sweet smile of hers and ask graciously “Can I help you?” She would just go along like nothing ugly had ever
happened! Amazing!
It’s hard to believe, but Barbara does have another love – her family. Incidentally her family is ecstatic
regarding her decision to retire. They are so delighted that they don’t have to share their mother with us
on Mother’s Day, Easter, Fourth of July or any other holiday one of our shows happened to fall on.
(Remember we used to even have the Holiday Circuit between Christmas and New Year’s). Barbara has a
son and two daughters, five grandchildren, and four great grandchildren.
She is an avid scrap booker, and has recently taken up oil painting. Watercolors are next. Whatever
she decides to do with her time, you can bet it will be with excellence and dedication. We will surely miss
seeing her and having her there at our beckoned call to answer questions or do whatever is needed to
make something run smooth. But we can always ask ourselves, “What would Barbara do?”
Thank you Barbara Fisher and God Bless you as you enjoy your long, joyous retirement!

Things You Need to Know
Roger Elder, AQHA Director at Large, has provided some helpful information for all AQHA members.
1. Get a copy of the new rule book, either hard copy or download off the AQHA website.
2. Study the equipment section to make sure that they are following guidelines on using proper bits and
training equipment.
3. Be aware of the possible penalties that they could face if violations are made on the show grounds.
4. If in doubt about equipment or situations just ask the show stewards for help or clarification and avoid
making a mistake.
5. If you see a situation going wrong please let show management or the steward know ASAP. We want
to help keep everyone from making violations of the rules that we must play by.
6. At AQHA animal welfare has been placed on the front burner and will continue to remain there!

Amateur News
Hello All and Welcome to 2013! We had a very successful meeting at the 2013 TQHA convention, with
even a few “new” Amateurs in attendance! Key discussion points from the meeting were as follows:
 The Amateur Association has agreed to make a concentrated effort to support the Therapeutic
Riding group STAR. This effort will be led by Karen Spangler who will be gathering a list of items
requested by STAR, which will then be posted on the TQHA website. Karen and other amateurs will
be taking donations for these items at many of the horse shows throughout 2013. This is a very
important cause and everyone’s generosity and help is greatly appreciated!
 In lieu of hosting a summer horse show dinner, the meeting attendees have decided to again
donate water for a TQHA sanctioned summer horse show(s). Here’s to hoping the summer shows
have “cooler” weather then last year!
 The Amateur Association is pleased to continue to support the TQHA All Novice Show by covering
the cost of the Amateur All-Around award at the Novice Show on March 16th and 17th in
Harriman, TN. With the new leveling program and novice rules, we hope to see many novice
amateurs battling it out for this great prize!
 For those of you already making your plans for the 2013 / 2014 TQHA Banquet, we have again
decided that amateurs attending the morning meeting will receive ½ off their dinner price or the
cost of evening refreshments for the awards, depending on which occurs. Just another great
reason to attend the convention!
 In light of the continued struggling economy, the meeting attendees again made the very difficult
decision to suspend the distribution of any Amateur Incentive Fund money for the year. We will
continue to evaluate the reinstatement of the program on yearly basis.
Finally the new officers were determined for the 2013 year:




President – Becky Haw Ayotte
1st VP – Rose Mason
2nd VP – Katie Wigginton
Secretary – Judy Heim
I am very honored and excited to be taking on the role of your 2013 Amateur Association President and
look forward to seeing all of you at the TQHA Celebration Circuit in March!
Best Regards, Becky Haw Ayotte

TQHA Hall of Fame
At the 2013 TQHA Convention we took the
opportunity to recognize our first Hall of Fame
inductees. The awards were presented by Dr.
Dave Whitaker, AQHA Director at Large, who
represented the Hall of Fame Committee. The
committee is chaired by Kathleen Kilduffe who
along with members, Pat Kress, Joan Walker,
Dan Riegle and Dave Whitaker reviewed the
nominations and selected the first inductees.
Dave provided a history lesson regarding
TQHA and additional research of State of
Tennessee records after the convention filled in
the gaps. Read more below about our great
organization and Mr. George Tackett and Ski
Lubinski the first two Hall of Fame members.
In 1962 George Tackett, Ski Lubinski and
several other quarter horse lovers started the
Tri-State Quarter Horse Association which
included members from Arkansas, Mississippi
and Tennessee. On May 28, 1963 they filed for
a corporation in the state of Tennessee.
Prior to 1962 the only AQHA shows held in
Tennessee were in Franklin and at the MidSouth Fair in Memphis. The first AQHA show
held east of Memphis was with the rodeo in
Franklin.
The Tri-State Association put on six shows in
Memphis and the Mississippi area in 1962. The
next two years, 1963 and 1964, their shows
included those held in Jackson, Milan, Alamo,
Humboldt, Trenton, Parsons, Savannah, Selmer,
and the Memphis area. With membership
growing by leaps and bounds, the charter
members knew Tennessee was ready for their
own association. George Tackett was elected as
the president of that split-off association.
In 1966 TQHA added to the Franklin venue
shows held in Dickson, Fairview, Columbia, Mt.
Juliet and Nashville. The membership grew with
new members from the Cookeville and Knoxville
area. The following year TQHA had shows across
the entire state. According to Tennessee state
records in March of 1969 the Tri-State Quarter
Horse Association was officially changed to the
Tennessee Quarter Horse Association, Inc. It was
again changed in 1989 to non-profit status.
The first inductee into the TQHA Hall of Fame,
George Tackett, was instrumental in the creation
of TQHA. His love of the American Quarter Horse
led him to breeding and showing horses in the
1950’s and started the foundation for recognizing
the need for an organization. He was the first
president of the group known as the Tennessee
Quarter Horse Association.
It was said by an individual who grew up
showing during that time that “Mr. George was
always
encouraging
and
complimentary
especially with the youth and new people in the
industry. He had a way with people and used it
for the good of the industry and its members.”
Region I & II News
The second inductee into the TQHA Hall of
Fame, Ski Lubinski, was instrumental in the
creation of TQHA. Ski was president of TQHA in
1966, 1967 and 1970. As a charter member of
TQHA we owe much of the success of our
organization to him. Along with George Tackett
he worked hard to promote the quarter horse
industry in Tennessee. He was the first AQHA
judge from Tennessee judging his first show in
1966.
TQHA Branded Merchandise
TQHA has worked out an agreement with
Kyle Rector of Rockin R Graphics to provide
TQHA branded merchandise for sale. Soon a
link will be on the TQHA website where you will
be able to view available merchandise bearing
our TQHA name and logo. Rockin R Graphics
will be setting up as a vendor at TQHA shows
where you will be able to purchase
merchandise directly at those shows.
Well Wishes for June Cope
Keep June Cope in your thoughts. She was
injured in an accident at the Dixie Nationals
where her femur was broken. They put a rod
from the hip down to the knee and a screw at
each end. June is at home recuperating now,
but we know we’ll see her back at the shows in
the future.
Region I and II held their annual awards
banquet December 8, 2012. President Karen
Spangler extended a big thank you to Tina
Freeland, June Cope and Michelle Whitlow for
selecting great awards.

Member Spotlight
We all love that view from the back of a
horse. Sisters Becky Ayotte and Elaine Haw
learned the allure of that vantage point early.
Elaine recalls sitting in front of her mother on
trail rides, and being thankful they didn’t have
to worry about the speed limit. Becky spent so
many hours on her toy bouncy horse that she
was known to nod off, and then fall off. Those
first memories, and the help of early mounts
“Tony the Pony,” and naughty but loveable
“Pony” led the young women to their show ring
pursuits today.
Known for their talents in the huntseat and
fence classes, as well as pleasure driving,
you’ve probably seen the sisters at the TQHA
horse shows. Piloting horses like Achieveariva
(Boo), Blue E Licious (Derby), and Art E Jones
(Monty), the ladies have quite a resume of
wins, including numerous circuit awards, yearend high points, and top-ten placings at the
Congress and World Show. Elaine even has one
of those coveted Congress bronzes, after riding
to the win in Novice Amateur Equitation over
Fences class in 2008.
Sometimes though, finding time to ride can
be a challenge. Becky’s job with a logistics
company requires domestic and international
travel. She and her husband are also expecting
identical twin girls this spring, so for now, she’s
taking a break from the saddle. Elaine does
ride daily, but must balance that time at the
barn with school and study. With a bachelor’s
degree from UT Martin and a masters degree
from MTSU already in hand, Elaine is currently
finishing her veterinary medicine prerequisites
at MTSU.
When it comes to horses, the family
believes in start to finish. They own a
broodmare and breed for a new huntseat baby
every few years. Derby is homebred as well as
Monty, and you can expect to see his halfbrother Burn E Be (Emmett) in the show ring
this year, with Elaine in the irons. Elaine takes
charge of the riding and training, though she’s
quick to point out that it can be a challenge.
She says, “It is very hard to keep them going
around looking like a nice broke horse while
still ‘equitating’ and trying to make it all look as
easy as possible.” Always striving to be better,
Elaine currently boards and rides with USEF
judge and competitor David Wright. And when
they get the chance, the sisters also take
lessons with well-known Florida huntseat
trainer Sandy Vaughn.
Although the sisters have lived many places,
you could call their parents' farm in McKenzie
home base. That’s where the horses spend
retirement, and where the shared love of
equines runs deep. Horse shows have also
become one of those ties that bind. The ladies
and their mother haven’t missed a Congress
since 2002, and say that show holds the
greatest collection of memories.
TQHA is a shared commitment too. Becky
was recently elected President of the Amateur
Association, and she serves on the Lucky 7
show committee. Elaine is a director for Region
9, and works with the TQHA communications
committee. Both consider the members the
best part of the organization, as our common
interests bring us together to achieve common
goals.
When asked who influences them the most
in their horse-related pursuits, both ladies
provided the same answer, “My sister!” Becky
adds, “Quite honestly, we fuel each other’s
horse obsession.” For these two women, horse
showing is truly a family affair.
