Horse of the Year
Nominations are solicited from the general membership and the Honoree Committee in January of each year. People are asked to take into consideration the accomplishments/achievements of the horse for the previous calendar year.
The ECAHS Service Award
This award was established by Fairfield Farm Continuum in honor of Bill and Barbara Moore in recognition of a person’s (or people) exemplary service to ECAHS during the previous year. The previous three recipients of this award, along with the ECAHS President, determine the person to be awarded.
