The Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration has selected Rollie Beard, Derek Bonner and Wayne Dean to judge the 56th Annual Spring Fun Show to be held in Cooper Steel Arena on Memorial Day weekend, May 21-23. The panel brings a wealth of experience to The Fun Show with all three judges having previously judged The Celebration in their career.

However, Dean last judged The Celebration in 1991 and Beard last judged The Celebration in 2020. Beard has judged The Celebration nine times in his career. Although experienced, both are relatively new selections for a Celebration event. Bonner has judged The Celebration five times with his most recent assignment coming in 2024. Bonner has also judged The Spring Fun Show twice, in 2014 and 2022. Beard last judged The Spring Fun Show in 2019. All three judged major shows in 2025 across the industry.
