Oklahoma horsemen and horses will be inducted into the Oklahoma Quarter Horse Hall of Fame Feb. 14. Beginning with a reception and dinner at 6 p.m., the induction will be at the Renaissance Hotel in southeast Tulsa.
To reserve the $40 tickets, call Sharon Breeding at 361-3163 or e-mail sbreeding@ cox.net. Those wishing to attend to honor the inductees are encouraged to make reservations early as seating is limited and must be reserved in advance of the event.
Being honored is OQHA past president and leader in youth activities Jack Collins of Verdigris, as well as Joe Young of Guthrie, who has been OQHA past president, AQHA honorary vice president, and chairman of the AQHA amateur committee and has been an active leader in the quarter horse association for 26 years.
Clem McSpadden, who was a rodeo announcer, state senator, and U. S. congressman, will be awarded the inaugural Bud Breeding Western Heritage Award which honors those who exemplify the spirit of Oklahoma's Western heritage and who have an acknowledged love of horses which has manifested itself by involvement in equine activities.
