Arthur Jackson Memorial Award
Arthur Jackson Memorial Award
FORT WORTH – The National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) is proud to announce that Bob Freeman of Fargo, Okla., is the inaugural recipient of the Arthur Jackson Memorial Award.
The Arthur Jackson Memorial Award was created in honor of the late Arthur Jackson of Greenwood, Miss., who passed away earlier this year. Jackson was a highly respected judge, earning the most credits in NCHA history and judging events worldwide. While he was highly respected for his prestigious judging career, Jackson is most remembered for his upstanding character and devotion to the NCHA.
“This award was created to honor judges with over 25 years of service that have the same character and devotion to the NCHA that Arthur Jackson had,” said Sam Rose, NCHA director of judges. “Arthur was known for his integrity, upstanding character, and always having NCHA first throughout his whole life. It is my pleasure to have this award named after Arthur Jackson. Bob Freeman acts with integrity and a calm demeanor, drawing respect from everyone he meets. He has spent the biggest part of his life holding NCHA on the forefront; therefore, he was selected as the inaugural recipient of the Arthur Jackson Memorial Award.”
Freeman has been an NCHA member since 1981 and is currently an AAAA-rated NCHA judge with over 575 credits. Not only is Freeman a respected NCHA judge, but he also holds his AQHA judge’s card and has judged world-class events across both associations.
“This is a great honor to receive any kind of award in Arthur Jackson’s name,” said Freeman. “He was a friend of mine for 35 years and a wonderful judge. This is a big honor for me.”
Freeman will be presented with the Arthur Jackson Memorial Award at the upcoming 2022 NCHA Metallic Cat World Championship Futurity. For more information on this event, please visit nchacutting.com/futurity.
