BANQUET/YEAR-END AWARDS
  
All members who show the same horse in the same class(es) at three out of four shows over the course of the show season are eligible for year-end awards. Two awards, Champion and Reserve Champion, are presented for each class at our year-end banquet in November.
POINTS
Points are awarded in every class to horse/rider (or horse/handler) combinations who place first through sixth, as long as the rider or handler is a member at the time of their entry in the class. These points accumulate across all four shows, so even though it is only required that the pair show in three, it is in their best interest to show at all four.
Each of the top six competitors receives point. First place receives six points, second received five points, third receives four points, and so on down to sixth, which receives one point.
Each show manager compiles their own points separately (or appoints someone else to compile them), so specific questions about points should be addressed to those people. Points and standings are not final until the banquet and depend on a number of factors, including membership and participation.
BANQUET
All our awards are presented at our end-of-year banquet on a Sunday afternoon in November. Invitations will be sent to all the winners (who must buy tickets to attend), but anyone is welcome - and encouraged! to attend. Besides the awards, the banquet also features good food, great raffles, and lots of camaraderie.
