Kenneth Brown
Past Region 5 President
Passed away on April 21, 2011.

Ken was President of Region 5 for several years beginning in 1992.  He was the founder of Region 5's annual Spring Stampede.  He believed it was the venue to showcase all the CSHA programs and bring riders of different disciplines together.   It was also an opportunity to "meet and greet" with the non-horse public and to promote the horse industry.  The Spring Stampede was such a success it is going into it's 19th year!

He was a member of the Alameda County Sheriff's Posse and Shriners and believed the youth were the future of horses and always said "The best thing for the inside of a kid is the outside of a horse!"

Ken will be missed by all who knew him.
