The topic of the Kentucky Horse Council's May Kentucky Equine Networking Association (KENA) dinner will be “Saving Ground–Preserving KY's Horse Country,” it was announced Wednesday. The dinner, presented by the Equine Law Group of Dinsmore & Shohl LLP, will be held on May 16 at Fasig-Tipton in Lexington, Ky. KENA is a dinner and educational series open to equine professionals, horse owners, and recreational riders and will feature a networking reception from 5:30-6:00 p.m., followed by dinner with the main speakers from 6-8 p.m. The group, focused on the Kentucky Thoroughbred, sport, and pleasure horse community, is charged with the mission of providing an educational and social venue for equine professionals and horse enthusiasts from all disciplines.
May's speakers will be Holley Groshek, Executive Director of the Equine Land Conservation Resource, Susan Speckert, Executive Director of the Fayette Alliance, and Roy Cornett, currently serving as the Treasurer of the Back Country Horsemen of America.
“The issue of protecting Kentucky's farm land is important to every member of the Kentucky horse industry, whether you are a trail rider, breeder, or sport horse competitor,” said Kentucky Horse Council Executive Director Katy Ross. “We are thrilled to have a panel with three distinct perspectives on this issue and that will touch all of our membership.”
