Gordon Kohl Highland Award of Excellence

The presentation of this award is given in memory of the late Gordon “Crop” Kohl, to those members who make an outstanding contribution to the Highland breed and/or the Society.


Nomination forms are sent out with the notice of the AGM. The Board of Directors chooses a recipient at the board meeting immediately preceding the AGM. Although candidates can be nominated many times, they can only receive the award once in their lifetime. The award is presented only when truly merited, so a recipient may not be chosen every year.


The recipient of the awards retains a large, engraved pewter Quaich until the next winner has been chosen. They are also given a smaller Quaich to keep.
