The InPHC general membership meeting was held
November 11, 2007 in Rochester. President Jim Cerny called the
meeting to order at 1:15 pm.
Minutes were read from the last board meeting. The show dates were
incorrect. Minutes were approved with the corrections. The dates
were already changed in the minutes that were published in the last
newsletter.
The contract for the Rochester grounds has already been signed and
returned.
Lesley gave the Treasurer’s report of $1935.04 in the youth fund,
$10,972.68 in the general fund, and the money management account has
$13,711.33 of general fund money. She stated 42 stallions sold in
this year’s auction, so the office fee totaled $1050 that was added
to the general fund.
Advertising is on schedule reporting the stallion service auction
and year end activities.
Awards committee needed to raise the amount for year end awards.
Since the last meeting when a budget was approved for $3500, there
have been significant changes in the number of qualifiers for the
awards. Nancy motioned with a seconded from Denny for another $1600
towards year end awards. Motioned passed.
Stallion Service committee reported there are about 25 stallions
donated so far. For the information to be added to the website,
another database was needed to make this easier. Nancy motioned with
a second from Ryan Egger to use up to $400 for this upgrade. Motion
passed. Pauli will figure the honor roll sire and dam from this
year’s futurity.
Newsletter is set to be mailed by the 25th so all information is due
as soon as possible.
Show committee reported all but 8 judges have been hired. Contracts
will be mailed shortly. Show managers were set for all the shows.
After much discussion, Larry motioned with a second from Mary to
move all show start times to 8:00 am. Motioned passed with one no
from Mike. Tracie Egger reported on a request from the Southern
Indiana Paint Horse Club. They will be holding an open show on the
Sunday following their May 31, 2008 show. The club was requesting
that we co-sponsor this show. Tracie motioned to do so with a second
from Pauli and passed. They are also adding some 4-H classes in with
the show on the 31st. Tracie motioned we do the same with our
Rochester show with a second from Mary and motion passed.
Also, it was brought up if we wanted to approve the two Southern
Indiana Shows towards our high point again in 2008. Robin Robinette
motioned we do so again with their May 31st and Aug show with a
second from Deb. Motion passed. Southern Indiana is doing the same
with our shows again also.
Lee Ann Andrews will take over the Compete Indiana program in 2008.
Tracie Egger reported that Megan Slabaugh is the new zone 8
representative for AJPHA. Three youth members attended the youth
conference at the Convention in October. They would like to sell
baked goods at the banquet with proceeds going to the Red Cross. The
youth will have a year end party on December 15 in Lafayette.
Laura Mason reported on the trail ride via e mail to Jim. The t
shirts and donations raised $1700 at the trail ride and they raised
$10,393.85 for St Jude’s and they gave away 3 saddles. Another ride
will be held the first Saturday in October 2008. She had also
requested a budget for 2008 but we needed more clarification in what
she was asking for.
The ballots were counted for the election and Jim Cerny is
President, Mike Carlson Secretary, and directors are Nancy Lentsch,
George Smith and Lee Ann Andrews. Michelle Steigmeyer is the
