Canadian Warmblood Horse Breeders Association News

The Board of the Canadian Warmblood Horse Breeders Association recently accepted the resignation of Charmaine Bergman as Chair due to health issues. Charmaine took office in 2015 and has led the organization during a period of difficult economic recovery and leaves her position with the CWHBA in its best financial situation ever; well positioned to embark on several important initiatives that have been in planning for the past two years.

BC Chapter National Director, Janice Tyndall was appointed by the Board to replace Charmaine for the remainder of the two year term until 2022. Janice, who has been Secretary for the past several years, will be at the helm to guide the CWHBA through the implementation phase of our new website and the planned reopening of a CWHBA office, anticipated for sometime in 2021.

The Board and members of the CWHBA thank Charmaine for her many years of service as Saskatchewan Chapter President, National Secretary, National Treasurer and of course as National Chair. We send our wishes for a speedy recovery and look forward to her continued engagement on the Board as Past Chair.
