at the beginning of the meeting was Joy Gould
Meeting was
brought to order by Annette.
Joy Gould;
- Equine Affaire - Members/breeders’ flyers and
brochures were not permitted to be handed out at the booth. She stated
that the main purpose of the booth at Equine Affaire, which is basically
a trade show, is to distribute material to the public. This includes
general information on the breed as well as ads and ranch brochures – the
Club is the members. Joy also suggested we have a horse on display in the
future. Annette apologized.
- Shows – Joy had concerns that there was a
possibility that the Halter classes were to be eliminated from the
upcoming shows. She stressed these classes were especially needed for
trainers and ranches from a business aspect. Combining the classes was
also not recommended. Annette assured her we were not eliminating the
halter classes.
- Joy said the clinic being held at her ranch by
German Baca scheduled Feb. 19th will be changed to Feb. 20th due to
rain.
- Playday/clinic March 5th & 6th – Joy will need
most of the help on March 6th which is the playday portion. She needs
help with gates, a ring steward, ribbons person, etc. Jo and Jim Dykema
will help.
Joy left the meeting.
Minutes were accepted as
written.
Treasurer’s Report -
$15,351 minus some outstanding checks written. Balance available is $13,132.48
which includes Parade fund ( see attached). We approved 2 “stop payment” fees
on a couple missing/unprocessed checks. Report approved.
Old Business;
Spring/Pacific Coast
Shows – Annette has been able to get a refund of our deposit ( $500) from
Seaside Park cancelling the scheduled June dates. Cathy has sent in the
forms for show approval along with the check. Arlynda says she doesn’t have it
yet. In future we will send an e-mail to her notifying her it when we are
mailing the forms as well as some form of mail confirmation. Cathy will check
on the status again tomorrow and e-mail copies of the forms. We have not
received the contract from Fairplex yet. We went over the list of officials
getting hotel rooms and approved 3 nights of extra rooms ( 2 judges and
Carole). We discussed how many “transient” rooms to reserve and decided on 20.
We would be responsible to pay for any not used.
Storage Units – All
approved renting one unit for $60 or under a month in the Temecula area. Jo
will check into this.

Judges – A contract has
been sent to Frankie Marcucci. Merlene said we need to use NAPHA approved
judges in order to receive the maximum NAPHA points.
Carousel Show –This show
was approved for points.
Web-site – Cathy will
send Annette the 2010 l annual award list for the web-site. Cathy will also
review Annette’s membership list, note changes and mark those paid for 2011 and
add members not on her list. She will fax this to Annette.
Parade – Cathy handed out
a list of estimated/proposed expenses for the 2011 parade group. This was
discussed. The general consensus was that we should leave any extra funds
donated/collected toward the parade group in the parade fund for future use
rather than refund the parade members at the end of the season which would leave
the parade fund with a zero balance. Cathy is to ask the 2010 parade members if
they are willing to donate their share back to the parade fund. Any member
wishing their refund will be sent a check. Right now the parade fund shows a
balance of $373.22. Cathy is also to call Danell regarding the $1000 from
Barbara Windom which when this comes in would increase the balance. The okay
was given to order insurance for Burbank on Parade and Norco Horseweek. We
discussed various ways to get donations or help the parade group via
sponsorships,etc. Annette said she may be able to offer some stalls at her
ranch for Fiesta where the parade participants are charged for stalls.
Show class list –
Merlene, Cathy and Carole will work on for the next meeting.
Meeting was adjourned at
9:30pm.

$7489.22 (see attached). Show hotel bill paid for officials as well as the
second payment to Fairplex.

Pomona Show – We have
received the signed contract. Both judges have waived their judging fees.
Carole and Carolyn will handle the sponsorships and the sponsorship for one
class will benefit the parade group. We reviewed the class list. Cathy will
arrange and type the class order, make notes on misc. premium changes and
forward to Annette. She will also send the files on the premiums. We discussed
having a “parade” booth next to the logo booth to help collect donations.
Grand Show – Show dates
of Sept. 16-18 at LAEC. Discussed the second judge and approved Lucho Dapelo so
judges will be Lucho Dapelo and Rolando Garcia. Annette suggested we hold a
separate trail ride at Griffith Park during the show for those not showing.
More details regarding parking at LAEC, person to guide ,etc. needed.
Most felt this would be hard to do during the show but perhaps we could do this
as a separate event at another time.

new Junior Program is being set up by NAPHA which involves scholarships. Vanita
Mann will be handling this and we agreed to donate $5 from each junior class
towards this program.
