hours must be registered with ASPC/AMHR/ASPR. All hours must be recorded on
preprinted log sheets which will be available upon request. It is the individual's
responsibility to keep their own log sheets and send them to the designated person.
Tabulation of log sheets and reporting of award recipients to the Area VI newsletter
and Journal correspondent to be published, will be the responsibility of the awards
chairperson or a person designated by the board of directors. The reason to omit
sanctioned showing time is to try to encourage those people new to small equine and

To be awarded to an outstanding youth in Area VI that has worked hard to promote

horse/pony to a nursing home and documents that activity with snapshots - awarded 5
points, the local newspaper takes pictures and publishes them - additional 5 points -
additional 5 points are awarded if pictures in newspaper are accompanied by an article
