NAMHSA - June 1-15, 2010 News
NAMHSA News for the period of June 1-15, 2010 based on the minutes recorded by Bobbi Devine, NAMHSA Recording Secretary. JUNE 1 --Bobbi Devine (Recording Secretary) submitted the May 16-31, 2010 minutes. These were approved. JUNE 2 --Lindsey Hall (President) requested a new volunteer to head the Judging Handbook Committee.

A poll was underway to select the winner. --Lindsey Hall notified the Board of a small issue with the NAN cookies (trophy heads). The backs are smooth, and will require gluing by Aulds to adhere them to the plaques, instead of double-faced tape. Gluing will make removal difficult for future recycling of the cookies.

NAN items - entry window closed, class list being set 2. NAN 2011 - under discussion 3. Judging Handbook Committee 4. Fees for late show applications - tabled 5. 2010 elections - done 6.

Amy Peck held another of her wonderful shows, and this time the biggest and littlest guys had their day in the spotlight at her Draft and Pony Show! We are looking forward to a few more shows in June along with some more sunshine and warm temps! ****** Region 2 (Tom Dean) NO REPORT ****** Region 3 (Teresa Buzzell) NO REPORT ****** Region 4 (Carra McClelland) NO REPORT ****** Region 5 (Lori Batchelor) NO REPORT ****** Region 6 (Jackie Moore) Hello All! South Florida Live was held Mother's Day weekend in Pompano, FL. While the show was small in number of entrants, it was BIG on competition and fun! The judges did an awesome job of moving the show along, and we all had a wonderful time. For a few Floridians, this is the only show in our region that they can attend, so we are appreciative that the showholder continues to hold this show. Heart of Carolina Live was scheduled for May 15, but had to be postponed. There are no shows scheduled for June or July, as folks in the region are getting ready for NAN and Breyerfest. ****** Region 7 (Heather Jackson-Lain) May was a slow month for Region 7 nothing much happening down here. Our next show up looks to be the 8th incarnation of Big Orange Bash in Knoxville, TN. This show always is a load of fun and a good last prep for NAN and Breyerfest festivities!!! ****** Region 8 (Marilou Mol) NO REPORT ****** Region 9 (Pat Coulter) NO REPORT ****** Region 10 (Valerie Parker) May was a quiet month in Region 10, with only one show being held. CT River Classic was held May 22 in East Haddam, CT. The show was well-attended with good competition. From reading the reports from the show, it sounds like everyone had a great time. June is a busier month in Region 10, with 3 shows June 5-6: Factory Ponies Live, China Buffet, and NEMHC all being held in Spencer, MA. There is also an all novice show being held June 26 in Concord, NH. ****** Region 11 (Sandra Gibson) NO REPORT ****** Posted by Pauline Entin, NAMHSA PR 7/3/2010 | |
