2022 USPA New Horizon Award for Chris Ebel

Congratulations to Craig's son Christopher Ebel on winning the 2022 New Horizon Award from the United States Polka Association! Chris accepted this honor during the USPA's annual festival and convention Memorial weekend in Independence, Ohio.

I'm very proud of my son Christopher for winning this award. He's accomplished so much in his early life. He play's drums, concertina, accordion and clarinet and his love for all styles of polka music is beyond the music itself! He graduated highschool in 2023 and is looking forward to continuing his education towards a career in radio broadcasting!
