It was our great honor to award the Holly VanCourt Amateur Sportsmanship Trophy to Tillie Hall at Maryland Horse and Pony Show today. Bittersweet of course, as Holly is dearly missed, but we’ll always keep her name alive with this perpetual trophy. Topped, obviously, with a pug. 🩵 And Holly's beloved Fortitude was happy to join the photo op!
