Old Business:
MCHC June Horse Show Update—Successful show with profit of $2335 but a ton of work for our small group. We won’t be doing a 2023 UPHA show. Instead, we might do a “Lights for the Arena” fundraiser in June. Lisa will contact the UPHA Directors to inform them of this change.
Sally’s Ride Weekend (September 23-24)—Gates open at 10 a.m. Cheri will complete flyer.
•On-line Registration Form Again This Year: Liability Waiver Form will be included with stall, camping, and Coggins. Coggin’s will also be collected at the gate. Andi/Cheri will check to see if Jen Weide would do a free portrait of the raffle winner taken with their horse for preregistered riders.
•Trail Ride Details & Marking the Trail: Cheri and Karen will be marking the trails again this year. It was a great route last year.
•Brisket Barn Food Truck: will be there from Noon to 6PM and we will have them do some smaller food options for quick grab before trail ride.
•Online Silent Auction Update: Will open on Saturday, 9/17 at 5PM and close on Friday, 9/23 at 11:59PM. Cheri made a motion for MCHC to donate (4) $20 gift cards from local restaurants, Janece seconded. Motion Passed.
•Basket Raffle Update: The raffle license has been procured. MCHC will be donating a basket. Cheri made a motion for MCHC to donate $125 towards the gift basket plus 4 Tractor Supply gift cards, Cindy seconded. Motion Passed.
