Congratulations to Sandra Adams of Bear Valley Springs, CA on winning the 2022 Frequent Rider Program (FRP) High Hour Award! Sandra logged a total of 590 hours on her two Purebred Arabian mares Fadjur Hasan and DSA Spanish Rose between January 1 and December 31, 2022. She is receiving an engraved desk clock to commemorate her hourly achievement.
Growing up in Southern California, Sandra loved riding horses and that continued into adulthood as she went through college and raised her two daughters. Sandra and her horses have earned many awards in both regional and national shows and rides as well as winning one Model award in endurance, with commendable success on the mounted search and rescue team. She has taught private lessons as well as equine classes at California State University-Fullerton.

Now she spends her days managing a small vineyard with her husband Gary Adams in Tehachapi where she continues to ride and enjoy her horses her main mount being Fadjur Hasan. In 2022, Sandy spent some of her time rehabbing from knee surgery and riding was the best therapy with Shae or Fadjur Hasan, and they made great use of the 52 miles of trails in their community. They spent a lot of time in Bear Valley conditioning with an uphill trail of 5 miles and earning miles along other trails.
They spent many hours and miles trotting up and down hills and switchbacks to get back in shape for competitions in 2023. They have hopes to compete in a few LDs this year. Sandra also rode a few other horses in 2022, including her horse DSA Spanish Rose and although she hasn’t covered as many miles as Fadjur Hasan, Sandy still has great hopes for her.

Sandra certainly has put in the work with her two mares in 2022 and has the hours to prove it! On behalf of AHA, we say congratulations again on her accomplishment and wish her the best of luck this season!
AHA would like to show our appreciation and congratulate the Top Ten High Hour Award winners for 2022.
