The InPHC general membership meeting was held
January 13, 2007 in Warsaw. The meeting was called to order at 10:05
am by President Jim Cerny.
Minutes from the previous general membership meeting were read.
Pauli motioned to accept with a second from Deb and passed.
Lesley gave a treasurer’s report including a profit and loss
statement for the year. Currently there is $3396.84 in the general
fund, $2203.77 in the youth fund for a total of $5600.61 in the
checking account. All the CD’s listed are stallion service funds.
She’s paid $875.00 towards the banquet so far, and $3674.00 towards
the year end awards. She has to do the 1099’s and taxes yet for
2006. All the bad checks from the previous year have been cleared.
She had one proposal from First Source Bank regarding credit cards.
She will get another estimate.
Deb Tiede discussed the advertising. She asked about running an ad
for the unsold stallions. Nancy motioned to run a half page ad in
the March Horse Circuit News. Seconded and Mary and passed. She is
to include other club activities also with space permitting. Mary
motioned to run the one day showbill in Show Ring with a second from
Denny and passed.
The awards for tonight are mostly here.
The banquet has 50 prepaid adults and 11 children. Nancy motioned to
move the banquet back to the original first weekend of January in
2008. Motioned was seconded by Denny and passed.
The open futurity forms will be changed to reflect Nancy’s address.
Stallion Service committee reported there are 101 stallions donated,
up considerably from last year. She has 14 phone bids also.
We will still sell the newsletter covers during the stallion
auction.
There was much discussion on the show schedule. The prices for
Danville have become much more affordable and there is a large
covered show arena. The arena with warm up ring is $600, dumpster
$200, $50 for trail equipment, and $15 per stall up to 67, and any
others above that are free. They have 150 stalls. Thought this would
be a good place to hold the youth and amateur POR and not be at the
mercy of the weather. Melanie motioned with a second from Brent to
move the July 14th date to Danville and to hold the youth/amateur
POR on the 15th. Motion passed. The Columbia City show will now move
to the date that was still undetermined with the conflicts due to
the calendar shift. Columbia City will now be August 4.
Also, much discussion was held concerning qualifications for high
point and including the Southern Indiana Club’s shows counting
towards awards. The ideas to take to the Southern Indiana club was
motioned by Brent with a second from Pauli to still need 6 non POR
judges to qualify, with 4 of those shows coming from InPHC shows and
the other 2 could come from the June 2nd or Aug. 11th SIPHC shows.
We ask they approve the same guidelines with them using 2 judges
from InPHC shows of either June 16th or Aug. 4th. Motion passed.
No report from zone 8. We have received the checks with one for
returning our $1000 investment for start up money for the zone show,
and another in the amount of $1145 that was our share of the profit
from the show.
The Ohio club needs a waiver from us for the June 16th show that
they wish to move to Springfield. Pauli motioned to grant the
waiver. Melanie gave a second and motion passed.
Finnegan will be the photographer for the futurity and we are still
in need of one for New Castle.
Meeting dates were set for the year. Board meetings will be in
Rochester at 6:30 pm on Feb. 6th, April 3rd, July 10th, Sept. 11th,
and Oct. 2nd. General membership meetings will be at 1:00 also in
Rochester on March 11th and Nov. 11th. There will also be a general
membership meeting on Jan. 5th with time and location to be
announced.
Kimber Plemons will handle the Hoosier Horse Fair again. The dates
are March 30-April 1.
Pauli motioned to adjourn. Deb seconded the motion and passed.
Meeting adjourned at 12:15 pm.
