Meet the ArQHA President: Mark Russell from Perry, Arkansas

Disciplines or events you show (or are most involved in): Ranch events
Favorite horse-related accomplishment or memory: Watching my kids love horses
Fun fact about you (horse-related or not!): I am terrified of snakes!
One piece of advice for youth or new AQHA members: Spend some time finding someone who can help you learn more about horses. This can be easier said than done, but having someone you can trust and who has experience, can make horse ownership more fun and meaningful.
