*Laureado / Laureada:*	These awards are given when a horse wins Champion of Champions in the same division three times at the same show (does not need to be consecutive years). These awards will be presented the following year after the award is received at the same show. Generally, the owner of the recipient horse will host a party or event during the show which is published in the show program.

*Medal of Distinction:*	If a Laureado / Laureada is earned at the Grand Championship Show, the award is called the Medal of Distinction and a special medal is awarded to the horse, in lieu of the Laureado / Laureada award. This award is special because the entrants for the Champion of Champions competition may be the Champion from the Spring Classic championship Show, the Pacific Coast Championship Show, as well as the Grand Championship Show for the same year.

*Perpetual Awards:*	These are special awards that are set up by friends and family of members who were especially supportive of the club over the years. The winner receives a plaque at the show to keep, and their name is etched on the perpetual trophy which stays with the club.
