2007 Goodwill Award Recipient

Justin Woodley EOQHA’s 2007
Good Will Award recipient


It would be impossible for EOQHA to pull off successful horses shows, host social events, and make sure our guests are entertained, without a little or I should say a lot of help from our friends. In recognition for this support from non EOQHA board members each year the association awards a special gift to an individual or group of people who have made a significant contribution of their time and support to these activities.

Justin Woodley, is no stranger to EOQHA shows, a former EOQHA youth, and member of our Congress Team, Justin has over the years helped out with many events and fundraisers to support the EOQHA youth programs. It wasn’t however until 2005 that EOQHA caught sight of just how much of an entertainer and go getter that Justin has grown up to be.

The EOQHA’s Summer Sizzler Friday Nite Stage Show, debuted in 2004 with the Cowboy Drag Queen Contest, and hot on its heels was the success of 2005’s Singing In The Shower Idol. If it hadn’t been for Justin that Idol stage show would have never got on its feet. Helping with props, sound, and acting as the host of the show, we discovered many new facets to this cowboy from the North; He could sing! He was funny! And he was right at home on that stage. Thus it was no shock that last year he found himself right back up there as host of the Singing with the Stars Lip Sink stage show, were we found out once again the lengths Justin would go to entertain us. Arriving on a Harley Davidson HOG, sporting the likeness of Gene Simmons of KISS fame, Justin rocked the house, and showed off some pretty cool Rock Star mic moves!

Justin has impressed many of us over the years with his talents, in the saddle and on the stage, and by always showing up with a smile and willing attitude. These attributes have not gone unnoticed through out the rest of the Ontario Quarter Horse industry either. Justin received an invitation to co-host the 2006 OQHA Awards Banquet, but was unable to attend due to University obligations.

It is with pride that our EOQHA family can say that they helped raise our 2006 EOQHA Good Will Award recipient, he’s turned out quite well, and no doubt you’ll see him this year performing or helping out in some capacity at the Sizzler. Thank you Justin for your humour, sportsmanship, and support. EOQHA wishes you all the best as you graduate from university and onto that next phase in your life.
All the best to you in your future,
EOQHA
