Photograph caption dated October 12, 1956 reads "Making them shine pretty. Minor duty is taken on by, left to right, Carol Engstrom, Sharon Flora, Richard Fowler and Mike Allin, as they polish trophies to be awarded winners of principal events in West Valley Junior Equestrian horse show. Members, assisted by parents' club advisors, select trophies with eye to what they would like to win, hoping selections will appeal to guest entrants too. Trophy costs and other show expenses are defrayed by sale of program advertisement space and sponsors donations." See images 00147423 through 00147429 for all photos in this series.
