W. A. "Wink" Chappell Memorial Trophy
On May 17,
1994, William A. Chappell, one of the last horsemen from the era of
Early California tradition passed away at the age of 84, just hours
before his 85th birthday--May 18. Bill Chappell, my step father,
known to many by "Wink," was born into a family of superior
horsemen. Both his father and grandfather were horse trainers noted
for their well-trained horses. Bill mastered the understanding of
the relationship between man and horse which resulted in a superbly
trained horse in the tradition and methods of the vaquero.
