Meeting opened at 1930 hrs, at the China Buffet on Miller Ln. Sherri took attendance.
Buckeye All Breed Show Horse Assoc, which is similar to Central State, will be having a show at Clark County Fairgrounds in August (on our old Sizzler dates). They will be having arab/half-arab classes combined. They would like to "share" hi-points". Linda Laufer motioned to accept that we will do that and they can use our logo, and Marcia seconded. The motion passed.

WebMaster
Jim said the web has been quiet lately. Regarding the "For Sale" section, he has had a couple of items sold - one sold right away the other has been listed since last year. Other items are still there.

Summer Sizzler (SS)
All contracts are back except the Sport Horse judge. She had hoped Mary Loden had been in attendance to give us an update on sponsorship. Debbie Swaggart sent in sponsorship money, but couldn't sponsor hi-point this year. Will mail flyers out toward the end of the month. Marcia mentioned on web site going to '09 vs '08 - Jim will check.
Sherri asked if we wanted to go over our by-laws. Marcia asked about what, Sherri gave the example of emergency e-voting.
Louise and Marcia still want discussion. Sherri suggested put together a committee to evaluate the by-laws. Jim mentioned we might need a lawyer, due to state requirements and being a non-profit, and for such things as putting together business reports and having an audit at the end of year. Would also like to reconsider term limits - Jim felt we should keep them.
