American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American Quarter Horse Association has created a Hall of Fame to honor both people and horses who contributed to the growth of the American Quarter Horse. Any one may nominate either people or horses to be considered. Nominations from the membership are due by October 1. They are then screened and sent to the Hall of Fame committee which meets in the following March. Nominations stay active for three years, then must sit out for three years before being considered again. People being considered may be alive or deceased, but horses must be deceased.[1]
