Re: [RC] managment and completion awards - David & Maggie
I also give something to everyone whether they
finish or not, HOWEVER, non-finishers get something different and usually
smaller than finishers. A completion award is for completing. A consolation
award is for giving me money for training your own horse, I mean trying to
complete.

The reason I gave everyone a shirt was because it
takes a lot to get to a ride. The hours of training, money spent on supplies
and entry fees, gas and time off work for most people makes it hard for me to
let them leave empty handed. Sometimes a did-not-complete is out of the riders
control anyway like a lost shoe, tripping, rider can't finish,etc,. Just
because you didn't finish, doesn't mean you didn't try really hard to finish.
