Founded in 1997, the R6AQHA is a voluntary confederation of AQHA recognized affiliates within Region 6. The affiliates have strength in numbers, take a regional approach, supported by equal representation of participating affiliates to promote the breed, provide equine education, membership development, leadership and public policy.
Two members from each affiliate in the region make up the Region Six Board of Directors with the Executive committee positions being voted on by the Board. The Board has one annual meeting per year and holds additional conference calls to plan, develop and manage the Region Six Super 6 & Regional Championship Show and other regional events & activities each year.
