CIRCUIT AWARD WINNERS
It has come to light there may be a problem with some of the sweatshirts that were won as Memorial Day Classic Circuit Awards in that after being washed holes develop in them. The company these were purchased from is aware of this problem and is more than willing to correct it.
Please wash your sweatshirt as soon as possible and if it develops holes, return it to Lindsay Gulling at 524 Carrie Lane, Altoona, IA, 50009, by
June 30th. Lindsay will collect all sweatshirts with problems and turn them into the company for replacements. Be sure to include your name with your sweatshirt so Lindsay can keep track of names and sizes. IPHC apologizes for this inconvenience.

Membership
Please be sure to read the Show Rules and Regulations posted as
Membership Rules in the Membership tab, which were revised March,
2009. The main change and point of interest is number 5 under
Requirements for Year-End Awards. Please note that to be eligible
for a year-end award, a horse must be shown in the class to a
minimum of one-half of the judges offered PLUS must show at a
minimum of three weekend shows. In other words, showing at only the
Memorial Day Classic and State Show will not qualify for a year-end
award. This change was implemented to prevent an exhibitor from
coming only to IPHC's two biggest shows and being able to receive a
year-end award without supporting at least one smaller show. If you
have questions, please feel free to contact one of the Board
members.
Please remember to pay your membership fees as soon as possible.
This will assure you receive all Iowa points for year-end awards,
along with continued receipt of the Roundup and voting eligibility
at the general membership meeting. Do it now and be able to forget
about it for the rest of the year! If you have a website, remember
that paid IPHC members get a link FREE on the IPHC website during
the calendar year of payment. What better way to promote your
stallion, horses, farm or business?!?
 WOW! Over $61,000 in Sales!!
FOR THE 2009 IPHC BREEDERS FUTURITY AUCTION!!!
