The 2024 Bill Lenton Memorial Award was presented to Robert & Rebecca Johnson from RJ Game Farm, Fairlight, SK.
The Bill Lenton Memorial Award is given to Manitoba Bison Association members who have shown dedication and commitment as well as given of their time to promote the bison industry and the MBA.
The MBA gives out the award each year in honour of one of their founders, Bill Lenton. Lenton ran one of the first commercial bison herds near Miami, MB and later, Moosomin, SK. Commonly called a pioneer of the industry, Lenton was a driving force in both the provincial and national bison associations and is credited for helping open the gate to shipping bison internationally.
