Loose Ends Pre-DCC
If you have any questions about the Desert Color Classic and our Open Show, please call Liz at 948-1315, especially if you have volunteered to help out and forgot what it was you were going to do! ;-)
There's an entry fee break for pre-entries, which are due tomorrow. If you want to take advantage - call Liz and she'll take your entry. It saves time in the office, and saves a little on the entries. We do not need payment until the day of the show.
Anyone helping in the morning - especially in the office, raffle, or food, show set up is at 6:00. Entries open at 6:30 and the show begins at 7:30.
Finally, some members will be at Horsemen's Center on Saturday night to clean the office, announcer's booth and snack shack area. I'm not sure of the time yet, but will post it tomorrow if you'd like to help that night instead. Remember, you can work some hours off your sponsorship, which is due at the DCC.

May 1 Meeting Minutes
Greetings! We had a very productive meeting on May 1st. I'm going to post the minutes in two parts. One will contain all the minutes except for the Desert Color Classic, which will be posted separately. There was a lot discussed about the DCC, and since it is in two weeks, it will be easier to find and read through in case anyone needs to be reminded of what has to be accomplished. So here are the all the minutes except those pertaining to DCC:
Present: Lisa LaMere, President; Kathy Brown, Vice President; Kaitlyn LaMere, Secretary (non-voting)
Board Members: Sherry Krig, Laura Fowler, Sara Henson, Liz Swaffield
Absent: Suzi Smith, Treasurer; Kara Krig Olson, Show Chairman
Members: Stacy Nichols; Junior Members: Alyssa Brewer and Ashley Brown
Presidents Report: None
Vice President’s Report: Membership: 31 members – 12 memberships from the April show.
Treasurer’s Report: Liz reported for Suzi Smith that the Club has $2528.37 in the checking account and savings is unchanged. April’s show deposit – has not been made. Lisa needs to meet with Suzi at bank to be added as signatory.
Show Chairman Report: Kara e-mailed a report. We had 31 horses and 33 riders in 141 classes. The park grounds fee the Club pays is $134.65 for each show, and the show report needs to be revised to change it from $341. This adds $206.35 to the reported profit of $1,017 for a net of approximately $1,223.35.
