President`s Message EXTENSIONS Feb 2016 - VADA-CH
VADA-CH NEWSLETTER | 2016 FEBRUARY 33 EXTENSIONS Feb 2016 VADA of Charlottesville, Inc. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE 2015 AWARDS WINNERS PAGE - 10 IN THIS ISSUE President’s Message by Melyni Worth Hi Everyone, As I write this letter, sitting in my camper in the 60 degree weather in Florida, I see all the Facebook posts about the blizzard and snow! I hope everyone is well and staying warm and as comfortable as possible. Better weather is on its way! Hang on in there folks! One piece of sad news that has just broken is the loss of Leslie Sebers of ShenVADA, Leslie operated Light Horse Stables in Edinburg VA and was instrumental in starting a lot of local riders in their path to dressage. She was a founding member of ShenVADA and contributed so much to the club, she will be sorely missed! Things are always quiet during the winter months, if you have time to stop and think please reflect on what you would like the club to be doing and what kind of activities you would like us to have next year, then send out an email to one (or all) of the Board members, better still come to our next meeting in March and tell us about your idea and let’s see if we can’t make it happen. Wishing you all well, stay safe and warm.

Feb 8 VADA-CH Board & Membership Meeting (7PM Teleconference) Mar 14 VADA-CH Board & Membership Meeting Monday @ 7PM Shadwells, Route 250 Bypass May Board Meeting Left: Nancy Lowey, Melyni Worth, Tina Longaker. Right: Jan Templeton, Lee Scott, Sherri Booye. Taking picture: Laura Berne Newsletter: Tina talked to VADA State President Alison Head concerning the submission of our well-produced, monthly VADA-CH newsletter- editor Laura Berne- to the USDF ( United States Dressage Federation) GMO (Group member Organization) ‘ Best GMO Newsletter’ category. We will await word concerning its submission . Dressage at Lexington: VADA State is in the process of purchasing the ‘Dressage at Lexington’ Dressage Show-. If the deal is solidified we would take over the operation of that show in July 2017. Clinic Survey: The survey that was produced and sent out by Laura Berne appears to be successful with about a 33% return. For the most part it indicated that the members that sent in responses are not interested in riding in clinics. It was suggested by Melyni Worth that the reason may be because of the number of qualified trainers in the area. Our membership may be taking advantage of that. Musical Freestyle Clinic: Since we are an educational organization- as stated in our mission statement- we should look at different educational opportunities. Carla Scarmazzi suggested a Musical Freestyle Clinic. Melyni indicated that whatever we do, we should expand our advertising for such events to include the North Carolina area and the CDCTA (Commonwealth Dressage and Combine Training Association).It was mentioned that if we did a Musical Freestyle Clinic – the Chapter Grant Clinic stipend provided by VADA State - should be used with a possible date of April. DC & DTO: Two online educational entities – Dressage Training Online and Dressage Clinic are possibly looking to partner with us. Laura introduced detailed information/comparison on each group. No decision was made to go with either group at this time. Rules & Forms: Discussion centered on possible changes in our Scholarship rules. It was decided not to change the guidelines/rules for 2016.The drawing will still be in September 2016.Volunteer requirements will remain the same for eligibility. High Score Awards- requirements will remain the same for licensed and schooling shows. There will be a clarification VADA-CH NEWSLETTER | 2016 FEBRUARY 3 Board Meeting Minutes (continued) on the Volunteer Form and Scholarship Form. Apparently some members found it difficult to locate and use the Scholarship application and High Score Award. There is a change in the name for the VADA-CH Registered Arabian/Half Arabian/Anglo Arabian 2016 Year End Award. The name will now reflect the name of Sherri Booye’s beloved Arabian/Half Arabian horse MC Endless Echo. The name will now be- ’The Registered Arabian/Half Arabian/Anglo Arabian Year End Award and MC Endless Echo Perpetual Memorial Overall High Score Trophy’. (blessing the memory of such a beloved horse!) PayPal: Laura presented information on using Paypal for online entry for our licensed dressage show in August 13 and 14 at Commonwealth Park, Culpeper. We may be able to use this for membership dues as well. There will be further information presented by Laura in the future. th Future Dates: January 9 is our Awards luncheon- at Lee Scot’s Charlottesville home. More information will follow. Spring Schooling show at Melyni Worth’s Cedar Creek Stables– tentatively set for April 23. Tina Longaker will judge. Next Meetings: There will be no meeting in January.

Attendance: Present were Alison Head (NOVA), Jessie Ginsburg (NOVA), Alison Douglas (Central), Angela Stanaway (NE), Sherri Booye (C’ville), Robyn Nunnally (SVDA), Beth Rippel (SVDA), Susan Ellis (NEVADA), Sheli King (NOVA), Dianne Boyd (NOVA), Kathy Rowse (SVDA), Debbie Howard (Central), Anne Draine (NE), Tracey SmithOliver (SWVADA), Amanda Harper (Central), Judith Harroun-Lord (ShenVADA), Sandy Johnson (SVDA), Jane Palmer (ShenVADA), Nancy Lowey (C’ville) Alison Thompson (Fredericksburg), Meredith McGrath (SWAVDA), Barb Pickering (NOVA), Dianne Carpenter (NOVA) Motion: Sheli King made a motion that we approve the minutes from the December board meeting. The motion was seconded by Anne Draine and was passed unanimously. Treasurer: Combined balances are 123K per Jessie - but this includes some expenses for the banquet and the down payment on DAL. Membership: Barb Pickering reported that chapters can now send membership reports and checks directly to USDF. Directions on that will come from Alison Head. Membership chairs are able to check directly with USDF to ensure members have been added properly for 2016. VADA membership lists and checks would always go to Beth Rippel. USDF has requested that if chapters send directly to them that all chapters use the same format- an excel template will be included in the email from Alison Head. Any questions from membership chairs from the chapters should be directed to Alison Head who will disseminate information accordingly. Report from 2017 Licensed Show Committee: Committee recommends that VADA seeks to host two shows in 2017- the DAL and a fall show. These would have separate management teams, awards and volunteer coordinators, though there could be overlap. Because the GAIGs are more challenging to host and have more rules, the Committee recommends that we bid on the BLM show and not GAIG in 2017. This would not mean giving up GAIG, but stepping out of rotation for 2017. Decision to make this change will be voted on at the February board meeting. Awards Banquet/Silent Auction: Everything is on point. An e-blast will go out reminding members of the banquet. Chapters should make further efforts to get silent auction items. VADA Spring Clinic: We have received USDF approval for the freestyle clinic to count as the freestyle session of the L program and licensed officials programs. Clinicians for the weekend will be Kathy Rowse and Marlene Whitaker. The 23rd of April will be the standard USDF classroom freestyle session and will be held at the Best Western in Leesburg. April 24th will feature live freestyles and will be held at Morven Park in Leesburg. We are applying for the Dressage Foundation grant and also the regional grant for judge training from USDF. Decisions to come on fees. Next Meeting: The next meeting will be held at the awards banquet on February 7th at 10:45 am. Meeting Adjourned: The meeting was adjourned at 9:10 pm.
