Special Notice - Palooza Model Horse Show, January 23, 2016 It has come to the attention of NAMHSA and it's Board of Directors that the Palooza Model Horse Show is in violation of Article III, Section 2.f. of the NAMHSA Bylaws. (f) No showholder "or" relative of showholder may enter a NAN-Qualifying division at a show held by the same showholder. A showholder is defined as the individual or entity that ensures NAMHSA rules and policies are followed and recruits, selects and assigns judges (or has an agent who recruits, selects and assigns judges) to the show's divisions. The showholder (or agent for the showholder) must be present at the show. In the case of an absentee showholder, the agent will be considered the showholder. A "relative" is any person related to showholder as grandparent, parent, step-parent, aunts or uncles (by blood or marriage), spouse, significant other, son, daughter, step-son, step-daughter, sibling, in-law, niece, nephew, first cousin, or any person residing with showholder or other relatives of showholder. Any non-relative, non-cohabiting individual who co-owns models with a showholder may enter a NAN-Qualifying show hosted by that showholder. The individual will be allowed to show only models not co-owned with the showholder. It is NAMHSA's understanding that the showholder Teresa "Tess" Jezek and her daughter Emma Jezek both showed at this show according to the results submitted to the organization. Considering the evidence, NAMHSA has no choice but to rescind all NAN Cards from this event. NAMHSA understands the impact it has on the exhibitors. It is unfortunate that the other showers will be penalized as well, however, this is a severe breach of the rules. If you have any further questions regarding the situation, please feel free to contact the NAMHSA President, Teresa Buzzell or NAMHSA Vice President, Kim Bjorgo-Thorne. | |
