Hi everyone,
<\/span>
<\/span> Hope you\u2019re all over Christmas and New Year\u2019s.\u00a0 We have a big year in front of us:
<\/span>
<\/span> 1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0January Issue of the ATAA Newsletter is coming up.\u00a0 Send in your farm reports, ads, articles, etc.
<\/span>
<\/span> 2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 We have several issues to work on from the General Membership Meeting:
<\/span>
<\/span> a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Grading Committee \u2013 we\u2019ll get moving on that
<\/span>
<\/span> b.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Strategic Plan \u2013 need to contact Pat Johnson to help us on that
<\/span>
<\/span> c.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Amrita is to look into investing our CD into Municipal\u00a0 Bonds that are tax free\u00a0 when it comes due.
<\/span>
<\/span> d.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 SANA Show for 2015.\u00a0 We have let them know we are interested and Amrita has already contacted some possible judges.
<\/span>
<\/span> 3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 What we have accomplished since the General Membership Meeting:
<\/span>
<\/span> a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 HorseFlicks filming is all done, people have sent in their extra photos and videos.\u00a0 Waiting now for the rough draft.
<\/span>
<\/span> b.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Logowear ordered and the sweatshirts were sent out (thank you Tish!).\u00a0 They are very nice.\u00a0
<\/span>
<\/span> c.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019ll have one of my kids pull the winners for the ATAA Logowear Raffles \u2013 for new\/early membership renewal and for registering 2013 foals.\u00a0 We got a pretty decent amount of entrants!
<\/span>
<\/span> d.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019ve renewed both the ATAA TradeMark and the ATAA WordMark, but need to contact the USPTO about the WordMark \u2013 they didn\u2019t like something.\u00a0 I will get to that next week.\u00a0
<\/span>
<\/span> e.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Bills are coming due for our Club insurance and Fidelity Bond.\u00a0 I will do the necessary paperwork and send the bills to Amrita for payment.
<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span> 4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Upcoming Expos \u2013 we had a pretty decent amount of members doing Expos last year (5 that we know of!).\u00a0 Anyone planning on doing an Expo this year please contact us and we can help with some money, club insurance and banners and a CD of brochures, breeder\u2019s list, etc.
<\/span>
<\/span> 5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Awards \u2013 Catrina is working on the National Alphabet Awards \u2013 the AERC and USEA.\u00a0 We had more USEA awards than last year, but fewer AERC awards.\u00a0 We will keep letting people know about the awards and hope there are more to give out this next year.\u00a0 We might need to revisit the USDF awards as one of our new members shows in USDF sanctioned dressage shows.
<\/span>
<\/span> All in all, 2014 will be an excellent year!\u00a0 If anyone has ideas for promotions, advertising, or anything that could benefit our wonderful breed, please let a Board member know!
