TACHA NEWSLETTER MARCH / APRIL 2013 Letter From The President : INSIDE THIS ISSUE : Welcome to 2013! I hope that everyone has stayed safe through the various winter storms and severe weather that have plagued the nation. Show season is once again upon us, with Scottsdale and the Cowtown Classic already in the books. Please review the calendar of events and plan to attend one or more of the shows listed therein. Our sport cannot survive without shows, and the shows cannot afford to host cutting without our participation. Upcoming Show Schedule 2 Scottsdale Show Results 3-7 Cowtown Show Resutls 8-9 Stallion Service Year End Standings Southern Cross Show Update Board Meeting Minutes 9 10 - 11 11 12 - 14 Election Information 14 AHA Membership Drive Info 15 Sponsorship Information 15 Advertisements 16 Thanks are in order to the US National Show Commission and to the Scottsdale Show Board of Directors for relaxing the rule requiring only registered Arabian or Half-Arabian horses to be used as turnback horses at those shows. Competitors are now free to bring any appropriate horse to help in the cutting pen. It is hoped that this will take some stress off of show horses that have had to perform double duty and provide suitable help in the pen throughout these shows. Thanks also go to AHA and the Youth National Show Commission for adding cutting classes to Youth Nationals in 2013. Interested participants are urged to contact me, Secretary-Treasurer Deni Grissette or their local TACHA member for help finding shows and suitable mounts. Youth riders need not own a cutting horse in order to show, as these are considered “JTR” classes by AHA. Youth riders will not need to qualify to show in the Youth National cutting classes this year. Finally, please take a moment to reflect with me on the passage of one of our breed’s greats, the legendary Bazy Tankersley. A top breeder, exhibitor and promoter of Arabian horses, Mrs. T. also made tremendous contributions to the sport of Arabian cutting, with horses of Al-Marah bloodlines regularly gracing the winner’s circle at major cutting events. She will be greatly missed, but her influence on the Arabian breed and the sport of cutting will leave an indelible mark for generations to come. I hope she rode away singing on her beloved Dreamazon+++. See you in the herd!

TACHA Election It may seem early, but now is the time to start thinking about what you can do for the future of Arabian cutting. I am referring to running for office in the upcoming TACHA election. TACHA Officers and Directors serve for a two year term. The President, Vice-President and, starting with this year’s election, seven (formerly ten) directors, are elected by the membership via mailed paper ballots. Ballots are to be mailed to the membership by September 1 and returned by October 1, with results tallied and subsequently revealed at the general membership meeting in October. Their terms will begin January 1, 2014. Nominations may be made by contacting Deni Grissette, TACHA Secretary/Treasurer, or any other board member. Please consider stepping up to help lead your association into the future. 14 AHA Membership Drive Contest Calling All Clubs AHA has launched the 2013 Club Membership Drive geared towards engaging clubs and promoting new member outreach. All clubs are eligible, no entry is needed. The Club Membership Drive will run from March 1 – June 30, 2013. See the basic outline below and check back for updates, club promotion ideas and success stories from clubs just like yours! What’s in it for Your Club? Prizes! Incentive – The five clubs that get the most new members get one free delegate registration each for the 2013 AHA Convention BONUS Incentive – One additional free registration will be drawn from all clubs showing improvement Winning Clubs will receive coverage on the AHA Facebook Page, in Modern Arabian Horse magazine, the AHA website and in an AHA press release. Club Membership Drive Rules Membership count based on growth from March 1 – June 30, 2013 Beginning and ending counts will be based on increased number of members, not percentage For the purpose of this Membership Drive, New Members are defined as any person, youth or adult, that is completely new to the association or has not been a member for over 24 months or someone who has previously been a base member but not had club affiliation for at least 24 months. Must be both AHA and Club member (not just club members) New Members must consent to membership with both AHA and the affiliated club. Convention registrations are not transferable to another club Sponsorship Opportunities Would you like to support cutting, but don’t have a horse to show? Why not consider sponsoring cutting at one of the many shows listed in our event calendar? Sponsorships are one of the many vital elements contributing to the success of our horse shows. Show sponsorships come in many shapes and sizes and usually bring various forms of recognition to the sponsoring individual or business. Most of the shows have detailed show sponsorship information in their premium book or on the host association web site. Alternatively, donations may be made directly to TACHA toward added money; however, all added money must be announced prior to the close of entries at any TACHA recognized show. National level sponsorship information can be found in the AHA National Shows Omnibus. In addition to the opportunities listed in the Omnibus, I would like to start a scholarship fund for the Cutting classes at the Youth National Championship Show. For more information or to donate, contact Toni Trego at 815-4410725 or VangoArabs@aol.com. 15 BE SEEN AND KNOWN THROUGH THE WEBSITE AND NEWSLETTER!
