Pantano Award
For each USDF recognized open show held in the state of Arizona during the show year (Jan 1 – Dec 31) the riders who earn the highest scores in each division at each level and who meet the criteria for the Pantano award become candidates for the Pantano drawing held at the Awards Banquet. The winner of the drawing is awarded $1,000.
Criteria:
- Riders must be Individual ADA members or the Primary Member of a Family Membership.
- Riders must reside in Arizona (ADA wants the winner to spend the money in AZ)
- Scores count only after both rider and owner of the horse paid ADA dues.
- Scores must be equal to or greater than the current USDF qualifying score for the level and division.
- Once a rider has won the $1,000 Pantano Award, that rider is no longer eligible for further drawings
