I have had a long-term involvement and passion for Arabian horses, having owned and bred purebreds and derivatives with my family for over 35 years.

Since the late 90’s I have been actively involved first with the Northern Arabian Horse Action Society and then with the South Australian Arabian Riders and Breeders Society, serving in numerous roles including Chairperson, Vice Chairperson, Secretary, Publicity Officer, and committee member. During this time, I have contributed extensively to the organisations and delivery of shows and events, supporting the growth and success of the Arabian horse community.

Many within the Arabian community know me as a Ring Announcer. Again, since the early 1990s, I have had the privilege of announcing at a wide range of events across South Australia, Victoria, and New South Wales, including some of the most prestigious shows such as the Australian Arabian National Championships. Announcing at both national and grassroots events keeps me closely connected to the community and provides valuable insight into the issues and opportunities impacting members at all levels.

My experience also extends beyond the horse industry through long-standing involvement on boards and committees, including representation on the Adelaide University Student Union Board of Management. As a past Director of the Arabian Horse Society, I have a strong understanding of the responsibilities of the role, particularly the importance of promoting and marketing our Society within a complex and evolving environment. I remain committed to ensuring breeders, owners, and members receive the highest level of service.

Professionally, I bring a diverse business background with extensive management experience. I have previously managed the Harbours and Marine Business Unit of a marine construction company in South Australia and currently serve as the IT, Facilities, and Procurement Manager at that same company, in total I have been working in this company for 27years. These roles have enabled me to develop strong financial and business management skills, a sound understanding of corporate governance, and the ability to manage multimillion-dollar budgets while identifying opportunities for sustainable growth.

My professional and personal experience has also seen me effectively utilise social media platforms to support business growth and engagement. These skills have translated into my work within Arabian clubs and boards, where I have served as Publicity Officer, produced newsletters, and delivered clear, positive communication to members.

Throughout my involvement, my aim as a board member has always been to promote the Arabian horse and to enthusiastically represent the membership of the AHSA in a positive and progressive light. I bring long-term experience, dedication, and a genuine passion for the breed, along with the professional skills required to contribute effectively to the governance and ongoing success of the Arabian Horse Society of Australia.

Ultimately, my passion is to ensure that the Arabian horse remains the horse of choice for future generations, including our grandchildren, and to help secure a strong and vibrant future for the breed.

Buying my first Arabian in 1990 I consequently “saw the light” and bought and bred more than 20 purebreds and derivatives since then.  I was heavily involved with WAAHA as Chairman for several years in different times with 150 plus horses entered in our shows.  Loved every minute and met the best Arabian horsey people making lifelong friends along the way.  I led and supported wonderful committees of like-minded people through many challenges to promote the breed.

I worked in Government for 36 years retiring 6 years ago to run two charities which I manage and have brought to being in the best place financially, providing more and better services and planning improvements in to the future.  I bring a vast and broad business knowledge, am honest and fair.

I see a positive future with amazing horses being complemented with local and international breeding and would like to be involved with that and I bring another perspective to the AHSA Board with my hands-on and business experience.  Our breed needs to continue to grow and encourage new and also entice past members back and I am sure with the stability and integrity of AHSA this will continue.

My name is Con Bouzianis and I nominate for a position on the AHSA Board of Directors currently up for election.

Since 1990, I have owned and developed Arabian horses under the prefix CONDEROSA ENDURANCE ARABIAN HORSE STUD. Over this time, I have campaigned my horses at the highest levels of endurance, flat racing, and showing, with endurance being my main field of competition. The satisfaction of breeding, raising, educating, and testing my horses is second to none.

This pursuit has taken me across Australia and internationally, proudly showcasing Australian Arabians and promoting their quality worldwide. Early in my journey, I achieved success at the Australian Championships with Liberty and Ridden classes. A highlight was in 2014 when one of my horses won the Australian leg of the International Arabian Flat Racing Series at Caulfield, part of a six-race global competition.

Beyond horses, I am a director of three investment companies and have worked for many years in my denture clinic as a Dental Prosthetist.

My aim in applying for this position is to give back to our incredible Arabians and strengthen the Society for future generations of horses and owners.

As a second-generation breeder of Arabian horses, I bring a lifetime of involvement within the Arabian community. Growing up in the Hawkesbury region of New South Wales, my family’s stud and the broader equestrian network shaped my values of dedication, friendship, hard work, and respect.

Working alongside my family instilled not only horsemanship but also the importance of teamwork, tradition, and commitment to the Arabian community. My lifelong passion led me to continue breeding under our stud name, Naaman, developing a successful program that has flourished for more than 30 years. Naaman-bred horses have proudly represented the Arabian industry across multiple disciplines, achieving success at the Australian Arabian National Championships, East Coast Championships, Royal shows, Grand Nationals, dressage, endurance, and eventing.

I remain a dedicated advocate for the Arabian horse industry, believing the breed’s temperament, beauty, and athleticism lend themselves to success across countless disciplines. My professional background in Community Services Management, where I held senior leadership roles, equips me to promote education, engagement, and sustainability for the Society.

As a National Panel Judge, I have judged extensively across Australia and New Zealand, committed to integrity, professionalism, and continuous learning. I offer both expertise and vision to support the Arabian Horse Society’s future.

I have been actively involved in the Arabian horse industry for more than 25 years, with experience spanning marketing, journalism, photography, ownership, showing, and breed promotion. My background has given me a broad and practical understanding of the industry, from the day-to-day realities faced by owners, breeders, exhibitors, and members, through to the commercial, media, and promotional opportunities that help keep the Arabian horse visible and relevant.

My involvement has also taken me beyond Australia. I lived in the United States, including Scottsdale, Arizona, where I was immersed in the Arabian horse industry at the highest level. During that time, I showed horses, worked closely with leading trainers, and delivered professional marketing and photography services within one of the world’s most competitive Arabian horse environments. This experience gave me a deep appreciation of the global Arabian horse community, the standards expected at the top level, and the importance of strong presentation, communication, and promotion for the breed.

I currently serve as Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of Arabian Horse Lifestyle, working closely with the Arabian Horse Society of Australia to deliver content that informs, engages, and represents the breed. Through this role, I have gained a deeper understanding of the AHSA’s communication priorities, the importance of member connection, and the need to present the Arabian horse in a way that honours its history while supporting its future.

I am a strong advocate for clear communication, collaboration, professionalism, and decisions that support both the integrity of the Arabian horse and the people who dedicate their lives to it.

Above all, I am passionate about helping strengthen the future of the Arabian horse in Australia. I bring industry knowledge, international experience, media expertise, and a genuine commitment to promoting the breed, supporting members, and ensuring the AHSA continues to move forward with purpose, integrity, and pride

What has kept me involved over the years is not only the horses themselves, but also the people and friendships that make up our Arabian community. I believe our breed is supported by passionate members who dedicate countless hours behind the scenes, and I have always enjoyed being one of those people.

Over the years, I have also been actively involved with various Arabian committees., working alongside a dedicated team of volunteers to deliver events and opportunities for Arabian horse enthusiasts.
