The Florida Horse magazine received one of the highest accolades in equine publishing Saturday at the American Horse Publications’ annual awards ceremony in Lexington, Ky.
Competing against multiple state and regional magazines, The Florida Horse was recognized for general excellence for work published in 2009. The Florida Horse also received this mark of distinction in 2006, 2007 and 2008.
In addition to general excellence, the magazine won two first-place awards for editorial design, second- and third-place awards for editorial design, a third-place award for advertising design and an honorable mention for editorial design.
“I’m extremely proud of our publishing team,” said Michael Compton, editor-in-chief at Florida Equine Publications. “It’s a great honor to be singled out as the best regional equine magazine in the country. Our passion every day is to provide the most professional and thorough media for Florida’s horse industry, and it all comes together with the support of our publisher, our board, our advertisers and readers.”
The Florida Horse is a division of Florida Equine Publications, which also publishes Wire to Wire and Horse Capital Digest.
