The Tennessee Walking Horse Association of California hosted their 2004 High Point Awards banquet on Saturday, November 18, 2004. In conjunction with the awards banquet, they hosted their general meeting and elections. The banquet was held at the historic Magic Lamp Restaurant.

The Magic Lamp has been a dining landmark in Southern California since 1955. It is located on the old Route 66 Highway, and it’s rustic décor of dark wood and brick evokes a feeling of warmth and relaxation.

The 2005 TWHAC Board of Directors are: Sylvia Becraft, Adrianne Benham, Adrienne Cappuccio, Matt DiCambio, Bill Hartman, Ron Kascius, Michelle McDermott, John Parady, Melvin Parham, Kim Reed, and Carleen Redman.
