Congratulations To 2014 OQHA Queen, Miss Mallory Mckewen
On January 18, 2014 Mallory McKewen was crowned the 2014 Ontario Quarter Horse

Please welcome us on congratulating her and wishing her luck on her road to the Congress. Mallory is a familiar face in the Quarter Horse ring and will be attending shows in all areas of Ontario this season as well as the Can-am Equine Emporium in Orangeville in March to raise awareness of the OQHA and the Quarter Horse breed. Please come out and meet Mallory, learn about the program and keep an eye out for her updates throughout the year. Thank you to all of our sponsors who make this pro- gram possible each year!
