OLD BUSINESS
Laura Beck reported on the upcoming Austin VanWyck Clinic at Piedmont Saddle Club May 30. She said that most of the horse spots are filled but we can probably handle some more. Contact her at goldenbfarms@yahoo.com
As to the Spring Fling….. Awards are in. Vendors are going to give other gifts as well.
WE need transportation help in getting the awards hauled to the show. There are approx. 14 large boxes most of which are at Trisha and Craig Linville’s.
Raffle tickets….. In reference to that we had a table set up at the Mt Airy Sale and sold $290 in tickets and memberships!!!! Thanks to Mary Frazier who was the ECMHC pep rally leader. She did a superb job in promoting the club!! The club received lots of exposure there.
Concerning Oak Ridge : Ronnie Clifton is the judge. Jim Frazier will bring the jumps and obstacles…so graciously I might add.

NEW BUSINESS???
A member mentioned possibly having other website info on the club website. Possibly links to farms or other areas of interest to our members. The fee to have one for non members would be $50. That will give another member benefit. It would be free for club members.
Bobby Bridges mentioned the club possibly doing some type of charity for someone at Christmas time. The idea is in the ongoing discussion stage.
Valley Vet supply and Country Supply have programs to donate to clubs who promote them. The details to enroll in the Valley Vet program require a complete contact list given to them of all our members presently and as the list changes. As many of our members purchase from them many of them may not and not all want there information given out. The Country Supply or Horse.com program has already been set up. If you order from them just put in our code, ecmhc when you go to checkout. When the amount gets to at least $50 they will send us a check!
There will be a silent auction featuring show clothes. Mary Frazier will be in charge of setting up and Lori Osborn of East Coast Miniature Tack will help take money.
Andy Hunter made a motion to adjourn. Jean Haines 2nd Motion passed and we did.
