The monetary checks are presented by the WHTA President, Bill Young, and Show Co-Chairs, Dee Cantrell and Carlyle Johnson. The presentation's location was made in front of the new home for the WHTA. Their new office is located on The Celebration show grounds next door to the Optimist Club Donut booth.
The WHTA office will be open for business at their new location Monday, May 1.
