[RC] National Championship Award - tomnollGreetings: The AERC already has an award similar to the nomination that some have suggested. An award that I think is far more prestigious than any of the others. The annual Partners Award recognizes a very special horse and rider team. I realize that the award is subjective, still to me there may be no higher honor. In fact, the only greater honor that I can imagine is if the horses somehow got together and awarded their own partners award. But, the horses aren?t going to do that. It seems that the awards most sought after by the humans are completely irrelevant to the horses. Best Regards, Tom Noll SW Idaho PS: The Pacific Northwest Endurance Riders also have a special award ? the Sandybaar Award (from the PNER website: Named in honor of Sandybaar, an Arabian stallion who competed in the early days of PNER/AERC. He was never pulled. Awards for all PNER horse/rider teams who complete a minimum of ten consecutive PNER rides, any distance). There are four words describing Sandybaar?s career; ?He was never pulled.? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
