Held on Zoom
Meeting Called to Order by Cindy Johnson at: 6:06 PM
Minutes: Motion to accept the January 2021 minutes as found on-line with the correction of no stallion’s class for the June show by Tess, seconded by Maddi. Motion carried.
Treasurer’s Report: Lisa Pellegrini reported that we have $4300 in checking, $833 in savings. We took in money for horse show sponsors and stalls. We spent $58 towards the February Sally’s Fund charity event. Motion to accept the treasurer’s report made by Maddi, seconded by Tess. Motion carried.
Other Correspondence? We received a thank-you from the UPHA and Sally’s Fund for our donation.
Old Business:
Annual Tack Sale-Saturday, May 22 from Noon to 3 PM at the Marquette County Fairgrounds Horse & Chicken Barns. Vendor set-up begins at 10 AM.
Decision was made to hold a tack sale this year but keep it simple and rent unheated indoor table space. We provide one table and 2 chairs for $25 and vendors bring and sell their own stuff. Preregistration will be required. Costumers will need to be prepared to bring cash. Masks will be required for all indoor spaces. Recommended to have hand sanitizers at individual tables.
Set-up of the tables and chairs will be done during the work-bee/meeting on Thursday, May 20th beginning at 6 PM. Tess said that there will be no 4-H kids to help at this point but we won’t be moving people’s stuff this time. We might have to pay $200 to rent the two buildings.
We can do check-in with one or two people for day of sale. There won’t be a concession stand this year.
MCHC Horse Show Update (June 4, 5, and 6):
Preregistration: Cathy will work with Cindy on getting preregistration set up through Fast-Entry. Lisa will contact UPHA about getting members and their horse’s UPHA numbers so that we can load them in with the preregistrations.
Class Sponsors Update: There are still lots of slots left but rolled over 2020 sponsors into 2021. We decided not to do weekend sponsors with banners.
Stall Reservations & Stall Cleaning Update: There are only 9 stalls left!! Only 2 people paid have paid thus far. Kelly Thomas will be cleaning again this year and will include blowing and possibly disinfecting stalls.
Ribbons & Awards & Prizes Update: Maddi has the ribbons. Cathy removed the zeros on the high point award’s stitching. Cindy has 49 prizes and will do some more shopping. Tess offering to do some kid stuff for lead line. Lisa will get $10 Tractor supply gift cards in May.
Concessions Stand: Maddi & Mary want to do it. No conclusions yet but maybe do snacky stuff, chips, donuts, granola bars in low quantities.
Shavings: Will be available for preorder for $4 per bag and delivered to your stalls. Cindy and Lisa will pick them up.
Judges: The contracts have been signed and returned. Lisa will get their hotel rooms.
Port-A-Potties: Cindy will make arrangements for port-a-potties to be delivered Friday morning, June 4.
New Business:
• Next meeting will be Thursday, May 20 at the Fairgrounds at 6 PM. We will provide pizza and combine the meeting with a work-bee to get ready for the Tack Sale on Saturday! After 5/22, the stalls can be put up.
• Work Bee for Horse Barns at the Fairgrounds will be Tuesday, June 1, at 6PM. At that time, we will put shavings in the stalls, get registration ready and other show prep.
Motion to adjourn made by Tess, seconded by Cathy. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 7:13 p.m.
