Fox Trotters have been a part of my life for
over 17 years. Growing up
in Wyoming, horses were always a way life.
Trail riding the mountains of Colorado and being
with fellow equine enthusiasts is what I love to
do! I have three Fox Trotters, which
keeps me very busy!
MSFTA is a great organization with many fine
people. Over the years I
have worked on many different committees in
many different capacities. |

Board Position #1: Jamie
Lammers
Hi,
my name is Jamie Lammers and I have been a
member of MSFTA for 3 years. I started riding
horses when I was 8 years old. I sold my horse
when I got married. There was just not enough
time or money to devote to horses while building
a life and raising children. Then, in 1999 when
our children were 16 & 18 my husband and I
decided it was time to get back involved in
horses again and we've enjoyed them ever since.
I have always owned quarter horses until my
close riding friend bought a Fox Trotter. I
always brought up the rear in a bouncy fast trot
to keep up. Shortly afterwards she decided to
stop riding { she was 70 at the time} so I
bought her Fox Trotter from her. His name is Studley and I've been hooked ever since. My
husband, Joe enjoys riding also but doesn't get
to ride as often as I do. Eventually, I will get
him hooked on Fox Trotters. We love to trail
ride and camp with our horses in our beautiful
state and there is still so much to see. I enjoy
being a member of MSFTA where there is always
someone to ride with that enjoys the breed as
much as I do. As a Board member I would like
to encourage more clinics. I am still new to the
breed and enjoy learning about their gait and
versatility. I am looking forward to many day
rides and camping trips with the club.

Board Position West Slope: Christy Burch
|
My name is Christy Burch, and I’m delighted to
be the Western Slope board member for the MSFTA.
I’ve been a member of this great group for many
years and have enjoyed friends, horses and
incredible camping/trail riding adventures
during that time. I am fortunate to live in
beautiful Crawford, Colorado, with views of the
West Elk Mountains and Needle Rock. My Fox
Trotter, Summer Cash, has literally grown up on
many of these trails all over Western
Colorado. Some of our favorite "backyard" rides
include Escalante Canyon, Flat Tops and Lizard
Head Wilderness areas; and of course Kebler
Pass. So, if you’re on the Western Slope, give
us a call, because we live to ride and ride to
live!! My phone number is 970.921.3650.

Board Position New Mexico:
Alicia Morrison
Alicia’s
love of gaited horses started with her
grandfather, a horseman from the beautiful
rolling hills of west Tennessee. In 1995
Alicia thought she might never realize her dream
of breeding, raising and training gaited horses,
as the big "C" crossed her path.
She acted
on another life dream after the cancer. That
goal was to breed, raise, and train Missouri Fox
Trotters. Along with her husband, Art,
they own Star Gait Ranch which is located in
Moriarty, New Mexico and currently home to a
herd of around 17 horses.
Her
favorite mare for general riding and mounted
shooting is Star—her first horse post-cancer.
Art’s preferred mount is Gunner, a Fox Trotter
gelding. "With a herd like ours there are lots
of others to ride as well but those two are our
personal mounts."
She can be reached at
505-328-5883. Email is
aliciamorrison@hughes.net.
Moriarty is east of Albuquerque. The web sight
