I rode with these two older women this weekend. In the early 1980's they decided to make a try at being "medallion" winners with the NATRc. To win a medallion you had to ride 350 official document NATRc Competitive Trail Rides in one year. So thats 350 miles in 365 days. So in order to do that they had to pack up every weekend and drive from north florida to places like Arizona, California, New York state etc. and they did it! and won a big nice framed medallion. They ride appaloosas and when the national appaloosa registry learned of this they sent them a clock made of marble with a brass plate proclaiming their accomplishment.
I was thinking maybe the USHIC could do something similar for Remington, and of course others who have had similar accomplishments in the past or future! Doesn't have to be something expensive! Just a nice honor, something to frame or put on your trophy shelf to feel proud of. Would encourage people who like to do things other than traditional showing with icelandics!
