Asociación de
Aficionados Taurinos de Leon, A.C.

1996 OFFICERS

President: Dr. Luis Sojo Rostowseva


MEETINGS: This three-year-old association meets the first Friday of each month. Meetings usually include the visit of some important taurine figure -- including matadors, novilleros, and Ganaderos.



AWARD: The association has instituted an annual Rodolfo Gaona Trophy, awarded for the most outstanding taurine event during the Feria de Leon (Guanajuato -- January 15th to February 5th). In 1996 the trophy was awarded to the Plaza's doctors whose distinguised actions saved the life of Matador Juan Clemente who had been very seriously gored.


MEMBERSHIP: The association has approximately twenty-two members, male and female. It has the distinction of being the first taurine association in Mexico to accept women as members. Counted among the members is the owner of the San José de Buena Vista ganaderia -- the ganaderia that, in 1995 had the 2d-largest number of bulls fought in Mexican corridas.
