Marquette County Horse Club Minutes
Tuesday, January 12, 2021
Held on ZOOM
Meeting Called to Order by Cindy Johnson at 6:06 p.m.
Attendance: 8 people were in attendance.
Minutes: There was no November meeting or minutes. All minutes from previous meetings are posted on-line.
Treasurer’s Report: Lisa Pellegrini mailed a Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet detail for 2020 to board members.
Other Correspondence: None
Old Business:
Membership Dues—2021 memberships are normally due this month. Motion to extend the 2020 dues paid into 2021 made by Tess, seconded by Maddi. Motion carried.
Annual Tack Sale—Mid-May 2021 Marquette County Fairgrounds
Date & Location Options? Negaunee Township is out. Maybe May 13th or 22 at the Fairgrounds outside and inside. Group considering charging for a table instead of checking in and handling other people’s stuff. Decision will be made in March.
Concessions: Not sure.
Raffles: MCHC members will be asked to donate items for the Muck Bucket Raffle in March. Cathy contacted Kathy Solka and she has a quilt to raffle off.
MCHC Horse Show Update (June 4, 5, and 6): show format same as 2019
Show Format: UPHA added 1 new class for a total of 58 classes. The new “In-Hand Trail class can use the same trail pattern as the regular trail classes. There was a request for a stallion’s class so we will include that in our show but no jumping.
Judges: Lisa has mailed the contracts from both judges: Sara Gronski (Saturday judge) and Jody Zamzow Woller (Sunday judge).
Preregistration: maybe set up with pay pal for the club. A definite must this year to avoid crowds at registration.
Stall reservations & stall cleaning: Janece has started taking reservations.
Ribbons & Awards & Prizes: First place winners will choose from product one day and receive a $10 Gift card the next day. We used some for Sally’s Ride so Lisa has to check her inventory and see if Cindy needs to purchase more. Awards done with embroidery which Cathy will help modify.
Sponsors: Already have $380 in sponsors. Select Realty will donate $100 and Alice will do a class too.
Concessions stand? Maddi contacted Brisket Barn for Friday evening and Saturday and Sunday during the day, but they are unsure yet on those dates.
New Business:
Next meeting? Tuesday, March 16 via Zoom
Sally’s Ride dates? September 25th, 2021. Maddi checked with Brisket Barn and they can be there. Marquette County Fairgrounds still hasn’t been paid for the camping, but Juliette will check into.
Member Announcement: In honor of National Horse Rescue Day, UP North Lodge will be hosting a fundraiser for Sally’s Fund on Sunday, February 28th. They will donate sleigh rides and food plus raffles.
Motion to adjourn made by Nancy Redfern, seconded by Cathy Waller. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 6:53 p.m.
Next meeting: Tuesday, March 16, 6 PM via Zoom
