ABBA PARTICIPATION AWARD PROGRAM

This program is designed to recognize beaglers that have attended all of the traditional brace beagling Federations at least one time.  Currently these Federations are:

 

                                    *Eastern Federation                      *Midwestern Federation

                                    *Heartland Federation                   *Northeastern Federation

                                    *International Federation             *Southern Federation

                                    *Mid-Dixie Federation                   


We want to thank Ron Gray for suggesting the American Brace Beagling Association re-institute this program. We also want to thank Chip Kohser for granting the ABBA permission to adopt this award, which was originated by Joy Dog Food.

The American Brace Beagling Association would like to recognize all beaglers that have attended all the Federations by presenting them with a Certificate and a Brass Pin.  Award winners will be recognized at the Federation of their choice.

We have developed an application form that you can click on below. If you have already attended all seven (7) of the current Federations, at least once, please feel free to print out the form, and mail the completed form to the Committee Chairman.  Please do not apply until after you have actually attended all the Federations.     

Feel free to print out the application form for anyone that does not have internet access.  They can complete the printed form and send it via regular mail.  Completed applications should be received at least 30 days prior to the start of the Federation where you would like to receive your award.

This program will be strictly on the honor system.  You do not have to attend all the Federations in the same year and it is only necessary that you actually attended each one.  Previous Joy Participation Award recipients are also welcome to apply and be recognized by the American Brace Beagling Association.  

The ABBA Participation Award Committee members are: 

Chairman Bob Kimber, Russ Arend, Carol Urban, Ron Gray, Lynette Coil, and Mike Rowe.  

Please direct any questions to Bob Kimber; cell phone 615-708-9988, email
