The ASPC/AMHR/ASPR Creativity Contest is held in memory of former member Sue Price of Manteno, IL. Sue was passionate about small equine and always went above and beyond to promote them. Price was also very well known for both her creativity and her great sense of humor. The Creativity Contest was originally Sue’s idea, and she worked hard to champion and coordinate the program until her death.
