The ASHA Awards Banquet will be held on Sunday, February 1, 2015 at the Northlands Paddock Theatre in Edmonton, and the trio of finalists for each category have been announced.
“We are very excited to have Shannon Doyle and Margaret Graham return as emcees for our very special evening,” said ASHA’s Project Coordinator, Orianna Scheck.
Cocktails will kick off the night at 5:00 p.m. followed by dinner at 6 p.m. The popular band ‘Five On The Side’ will also be returning. The event will honour Alberta’s outstanding equine athletes and their owners along with some of the province’s finest horsemen.
