Increase in funds for the quarter: $213.15

Date: 2/11/18
Flying Pie in Meridian @ 11AM
Trailer Bering Pack
They need it. Cost maybe about $100
Cassandra moved and Linda seconded to use funds to pay for the trailer.
Paul suggested to make sure to bring a receipt
Discussion for location of: Les Schwab? Will let Linda sort it out
Motion passed.
Donation to ACBA for awards:
Last year we bought a judge, have donated 100 dollars as well. An email was sent out on needing donations.
Awards for both ACBA specialty and ARBA convention
Typically send money: do what you want or give to a specific breed
Last year’s auction did not go well, so
For specialty there will be an auction (for club?)
Usually club that is hosting has awards worked in and should not be soliciting
Need a motion:
How much?
Kate moves that we donate $100 towards awards, and seconded for money to go to ACBA awards. Clarification on what awards this money is used for was discussed.
Kate amended motion to make it $150 and Dana seconded the motion. Motion passed.
Dana will write the check
Club locator ad in the JACBA,
Linda moved to pay for ad in the JACBA $15, seconded and motion passed.
Meeting times:
Greg suggests:
Need a standard meeting time.
Would we like to do it the 4th Wednesday of each new quarter or another date?
If we decide to do something standard we will, but will do it date to date for now.
Website Update:
Minutes on website
Show fliers
Anyone who needs a login and password can have access in order to post stuff can.
Victoria will in order to post items
Insurance:
Payment for insurance is going up $40, the rate is going up. Charge so much per member and the per member part has gone up.
This is liability insurance for shows/members. This is more affordable than per event, this would be approximately $200+
Cat Show people did it through a non-profit
Insurance through great northwest will cover fair needs.
If Dana finds a better deal, then we may change but this will work for us right now.
Show Roles:
Superintendent:
Secretary:
Awards:
ARBA should have an article on what each role requires. This would include show catalogue. Can do it show to show, but maybe listing responsibilities might help. There is interest in drafting a standard set of roles, could change from show to show. Carrie and Janet will work on it together. Just a general description of each role.
Specialty Bid:
Do not have bids back from LaQuinta and Riverside. The Riverside would like to be host hotel and have all events there. They have experience with this such as dog show and dairy goat show.
Expo Idaho available
Monday no charge for clean up
Greg will continue to work with both hotels. Will wait on proposal to determine if we go with one or both hotels.
Small animal building: Hopefully will have locked and guarded so people can leave their animals.
Specialty coordinator needs bids by mid-March
When we see final costs, we can make a formal bid
What is the cost per animal? For Michigan and Texas?
Michigan: $800, double $6.50
Anyone else bidding in 2020?
Cleveland was the only one who showed interest
Texas got it over Cleveland, not sure if they will this next time or not
Double verify the volunteers who
