Meet the Show Manager | Breyer Midwest 2024
Hey everyone! My name if Heather Malone and I am the show manager of BreyerMidwest for 2025. BreyerMidwest will be the same style destination show that BreyerWest in Denver had become, just in our new home in Salina, Kansas at EquiFest of Kansas. We are excited to be in our new location!
I am a long-time hobbyist. I am a collector, show holder, judge, avid shower and I am one half of the Mares in Black podcast, along with Jackie Rossi. My day job is in cybersecurity, specifically marketing, branding, and digital media (yes, there are model horses in my office). There is no time that I don’t remember loving horses and I got my first Breyer when I was 4 years old. I rode and showed real horses most of my young adult life. I started in hunter/jumper and moved on to dressage later. I have ridden a variety of breeds and disciplines, though English will always have my heart. Model horses have always been an important part of my horse girl journey and I love this community with all my heart and soul.
My true love in the hobby is organizing events. I love holding shows, I love having parties, I love making people happy and showing them a good time. I held my first show as soon as I felt like I could pull it off, and in 2003, Smoky Mountain Spring happened in Waynesville, NC and it was a 10 division, two-day extravaganza. I have been hooked ever since. I am also responsible for Rocky Mountain Spring Fling, Candyland Live, Eerie Equine, and Jackie and I manage Resin Renaissance at BreyerFest.
In case you missed it, event dates are March 21-23. I hope to see you there! Over the coming months, this page will be the place to get all the updates and announcements for BreyerMidwest 2025. Follow along on the BreyerMidwest Blog and official Breyer Model Horse social media pages for updates.
I am excited to continue bringing this amazing event to the hobby and I look forward to seeing everyone in Salina in March!
