  • 0523 spts Red Haven Award winner 11a.jpg Haffner becomes 44th winner of Red Haven Award

    Pendleton Heights now has both the old and the new Red Haven Award trophy for its case at school.
    When PH’s Ellie McCardwell won the award in 2010, the long-standing trophy was retired, and because the Arabians had the last winner, the school was able to permanently house that hardware.
    On Tuesday, when the Anderson Noon Exchange Club presented the 2012 winner, it went to Pendleton Heights’ Abbie Haffner. So for the next 12 months, PH will be home to both the new traveling trophy, first presented a year ago to Lapel’s Leigh Steele, and the old one.
