President: April Mendenhall
Greetings all CHA fans! My name is April Mendenhall. I am a Senior Equine Science, Creative Writing double major with a minor in Business and I will soon be adding a third Animal Science Major! I've ridden horses all my life and I love to train and give lessons. I show in many different levels, from 4-H to breed showing. I'm currently working on training a new BLM mustang, which I've never done before. I'm super excited about this year. We have a lot of fun activities planned and events to participate in. I look forward to meeting all of you soon! Vice President: Lisl Pearson Secretary: Katie August
I'm Katie August, this year's Secretary. I'm a Sophomore Equine Science/ Agricultural Business double major. I'm originally from California where I was first taught to ride Dressage. Since I have moved to Colorado, I've been introduced to Jumping, Trail Riding, Western Riding, Western Pleasure, and I love them all! I won two of my own horses, Pete, a Morgan Horse, and Cookie, my Quarter Horse, who live with my parents in Longmont, Colorado. I am looking forward to an amazing year with CHA, and I can't wait to get to know everyone that wishes to get involved! Happy Trails! Treasurer: Jessica Stockton

My name is Jesslyn Conners and I am the historian this year. I am a Junior Equine Science Major with a double-minor in Construction management and Ag Business. I am from Basalt, Colorado. I love the outdoors, hunting, hanging out with friends, fishing and riding my horses and my motorcycles. I own three quarter horses at home (Pete, Rocket and Trouble). My goals for the future are to become certified in equine massage and to start my own business, also to develop my own barn construction consulting company. Currently, I work at CSU's equine reproduction lab. Information Director: Dawn Bush
Hi, my name is Dawn Bush and I am one of two Information Directors this year. I am a Sophomore Mechanical Engineering Major from rite here in Fort Collins, Colorado. Like anybody who loves horses, I love the outdoors and just about everything you can do outdoors. I also love sports, music, cars (working on them too), and much more. I've ridden mostly Western Pleasure and Trail though I have taken some English and Jumping lessons and I have learned the basics of driving. I've also done some training in the past. This is my second year in CHA and I am super excited for this year. I look forward to getting to know all of you as the year progresses. Information Director: Julie Eiguren Hi, my name is Julie Eiguren. I am from a small town in Eastern Oregon near the Idaho/Nevada border. I grew up on a cattle ranch and have been around horses all my life and have four of my own. When I was younger I rodeoed and am hoping to get back into it. I love all animals especially my sheep and my new baby filly. I also enjoy watching and playing sports and doing pretty much anything outdoors. I transferred to CSU last fall and am a senior double majoring in Equine Science and Ag Business Management. I hope to use my degrees and return to an Ag related job and raise my own horses. If you have any questions or comments feel free to contact me, I would love to hear from you! Activities Director: Amanda Bodkin Promotions Director: Jaimie Klein
My name is Jaimie Klein and I am this year's CHA Promotions Officer. This is my fourth year in CHA and my fourth year at Colorado State University. I will be graduating in May with a degree in Equine Science and Agricultural Business. I am from Cavecreek, Arizona and grew up with horses. I have three horses, one of which is up here at school with me, and a new puppy, Zip, which I'm sure all of you will meet. I like to barrel race, team rope, and team pen. I also enjoy trail riding, and this last summer I took a three week pack trip down the Colorado Trail where we rode about 200 miles. I am really excited for CHA this year- we already have some neat activities planned and I look forward to getting to know you all better! Ag. Council Representative: Kristyn Kleeman Hi, I'm Kristyn Kleeman and I am an Ag. Council Representaitve this year. I am a senior Equine Science Major with a minor in Ag. Economics. I was born and raised in beautiful Colorado. My background includes growing up with horses of various breeds and disciplines. I love to rodeo, show and take long afternoon trail rides. But my favorite is driving and showing Belgians! I have about 12 hoses total at home. Currently, I'm not sure what is in store after graduation, I'm just going to see where the road leads me. My best advice is to Get Involved! I look forward to meeting all of you and getting to know you, this next year!
