Review of Rules for Achievement Presentation at AAHABC Shows

AAHABC is pleased to provide opportunities for AHA Achievement Award Presentations at any of our three shows. AHA has rules governing these presentations in addition to the AAHABC protocol. Please see the AHA Handbook for the details. Congratulations on receiving your award. AAHABC is pleased to give $75.00 towards the purchase of a gift for your horse. AAHABC will only provide this funding once to a horse/rider combination. However, if a new owner (of the same horse) achieves an additional award, additional funding of $75.00 will be given. Please submit a receipt and request for payment to AAHABC.

a) Your horse must have received a letter from AHA with confirmation that the required points have been achieved, and verification that the award has been presented prior to reserving a Achievement Award Presentation.

b) You must be an AAHABC full member in good standing

c) Submit in writing (e-mail or post) your request to hold a presentation at the desired AAHABC show. Please enclose a copy of the AHA letter or FAX it to: K. Toye (604 538 2280) or K.

If you must cancel for any reason, please notify K. Toye or K. Cooper as soon as possible.

d) Your presentation must not be advertised in any way in the Prize List, flyers or posters. The Prize List may only say “Presentation” unless you are not entered in the competition.

Dear AAHABC members!

For those new to the club my name is Christie Wengranowski and I am your official Jibbah editor for 2007.

Last year we made some alterations to how our Jibbah was published and distributed. We now use a more streamlined digital format that allows our members to email their ads directly to myself where I can easily insert them into the Jibbah newsletters. We also post a full colour copy in PDF format online for members and non-members to enjoy. Our black & white printed copy is still distributed to our members via mail or pick up at our horse shows.

The Jibbah is published four times a year; May, July, September and December. Below are the deadline dates for each issue along with applicable fee’s. Please note that graphic design is available from me for any type of ad. Small text only, typeset ad’s are free of charge, however if you would like a higher end design to showcase your stallion, show champion or to thank someone please contact me for pricing info.

I look forward to working on the Jibbah again this year. Always remember that I am looking for articles of interest, whether they be stories, poems, jokes, pictures, barn news or whatever, please feel free to send it along so we can share it with everyone.
