Program Meetings

NNMHA holds frequent meetings featuring program speakers and Association news. The public is welcome to attend regular program meetings free of any charge.

Program Meetings and Coffee Chats

Program meetings are typically the last Wednesday of the month year-round and are usually hosted at a restaurant where we may share a meal and enjoy a presentation by local speakers. Location or date may change for holidays or occasions when we may benefit from arena demonstrations in lieu of a dinner program.

Our Coffee Chats are held during the winter as a no-agenda, informal way to get together once a month to catch up on news with other members when weather may interfere with more outdoor pursuits. Coffee Chats are the second Tuesday at Big R in Santa Fe.

Upcoming Program Meeting

The Sport of Endurance Riding

Wednesday, September 24, 2025 7pm

Pecos Trail Cafe, 2239 Old Pecos Trail, Santa Fe, NM 87505

Drawing on her lifetime of experience in the sport, our program speaker Joanna Zattiero will cover many aspects of this popular sport. Come learn what it involves, how it works, and what kinds of horses and riders take part. Spoiler alert: pretty much every kind of horse and rider are represented!

Some of the sport's key elements, such as training and conditioning, basic rules and regulations, competition distances and how and where to attend local/regional competitions will also be discussed. She’ll have lots of pictures and probably a few stories from the trails! Plus, our speaker is bringing several different sets of tack to show us what is commonly seen on the trail.

Come for the program at 7pm or dinner with others at 6 pm. We will be dining out in the front dining room and retiring to the back room for our program at 7pm.
