Natalie Snapp takes the reins of 2025–2026 AjPHA Board of Directors

By Laurel Cox

The 2025–2026 AjPHA Board of Directors has saddled up for a great year of leadership, with Natalie Snapp of Bellefontaine, Ohio, at the helm as president.

The AjPHA Board of Directors plays a crucial role in guiding the association’s activities, including collaborating with Youth members and guiding the future of the association. Members of the committee work with their peers to carry out an annual project, targeted at improving the association and ensuring its longevity.

Before serving as president, Natalie was an AjPHA national director for three years and fell in love with making connections throughout the association. Inspired by her Midwest upbringing, her project focuses on Youth member retention and creating new opportunities for Youth to connect with equine professionals. Read more about Natalie in the Fall 2025 Paint Horse Journal, arriving in members’ mailboxes in early September.

Congratulations to our AjPHA leaders!
