Fall Show Volunteer Awards

Cindy Aspen Award

For filling in as needed and offering support wherever possible, this award is given at the VADA Fall Show in honor of Cindy Aspen, a longtime competitor who always found ways to volunteer around her riding responsibilities.

Bill Boyd Award

For many hours past the call of duty, we award this at the VADA Fall Show in honor of Bill Boyd. A longtime supporter of VADA and our shows, we appreciate all those who come with our competitors to help.
