Meeting Notes 2006
|
Jan 2006 |
The meeting was brought to
order and Jill Stouard read the bank balance for
period ending Nov & Dec 2005 Roll call was taken; Bernie
Vela was not in attendance. Mrs. Lenore Stouard, long time We will have a meeting in
the months of Feb & March 2006 @ The Porta
Potty’s were picked up
because the company was
not keeping them cleaned
out in a timely manor. Another company will be used when we get
ready to start booking events at the arena again. The arena is going to be a
bit difficult to enter from
Sloan due to the street being paved
you will need to pull
into the back lot to unload your horses. There is another entrance from WJRA wants to consider using
Sunrise Arena for their shows April 8-9 & Sept 9-10. The arena will need to be split with panels
to run two events at the same time.
WJRA will let us know the dates they want to book by the next meeting
in Feb. Rod Thomas mentioned the use
of the water truck and how important it is to double check that the key is
actually in the off position so as not run down the battery. Also if you use the water truck please be sure to replace the fuel you use. |

The meeting was brought to
order and Jill Stouard who read the bank balance
for period ending Jan 2006. Roll call was taken, the Truax Twins were not in attendance, and Carol Ragust had a sick member of her family and was unable to
be present for the meeting. 1. The club will be
receiving a refund for the deposits on the port-a-potty; Jill Stouard will follow up on that issue. 2. Nevada Power came out and
replaced the blown out lights for arena.
3. We can not have speed
bumps put up on Sloan but we can have a sign that indicates how fast someone
is going to slow down. It’s doubtful
this will help much with the speeders who do go through there. 4. WJRA still has not
decided on when they want to use the arena for their rodeo event, they will
get back to us in the future about booking the arena. 5. We also discussed the
purchased of 10 new locks for the arena with combination style instead of
keys so we can save some money on new locks every year. 6 Wednesday night jackpots
will be tabled until the next meeting in March to decide if and when to have
them. The biggest problem is getting
someone to assist in getting the arena ready and stay to drag between
runners. It’s well known that Sunrise
Arena is the best arena in town when it comes to the ground, but it requires
a lot of work to make it that way, especially for barrel racing. 7. The subject of moving the
arena to another location in town was discussed possibly over near Nellis AFB just northeast of the base. Rod Thomas stated he could check into that
area for us, also it was brought up about making the arena a private club,
raising the membership fees and not having anymore events booked here. The fees need to be raised to cover the
monthly running expenses of the facility itself without events to help
support the arenas expenses. It will
be difficult to have very large events here with the parking limited and the
safety of the children and horses if they park along Next month meeting will be
held on Meeting was adjourned. |

each month, with the jackpot to start at The Treasurer brought up
that we did not get our Tax Except status filed in time for 2005-2006 and was
going to look deeper into getting the exempt status late fee reversed. The notice was erroneously sent to an
address on Sloan of which we do not have a mailbox. She will let us know by the next meeting on
May 2nd the status. The power was shut off to
the cook shack and everything perishable that was in the refrigerators had
gone bad. Next month meeting will be
held on Meeting was adjourned |

The meeting was brought to
order and Jill Stouard read the bank balance for
period ending May2006. Treasurer report
was given and roll call taken. Meeting was brought to order
by Jill Stouard, bank report was read and copy
given to Rosa Morin. The Team Roping will start
June 9th and 10th, July 7th & 8th and
final one in August the 25th & 26th. Cal Jebson will
be leasing the arena for both practice nites and
the main event of the team roping will pay the club 10% of his gross. We decided that the cook shack would need
to be operating to encourage more revenue.
Jill Stouard will work the first event in June and Kim Thomas would work the cook shack
on June 9th and Jessica Russo would work it on June 10th. Cheryl Vela volunteered for July 9th
& 10th. There were some
items that need to be fixed in the cook shack such as the cold water from the
sink did not work, no water was getting to swamp cooler. Repair will be done by the first event in
order to tolerate the heat and do any kind of food preparation. Also the sewer bill was due
from the last two months, they
had tried to
deliver mail to our physical address instead of our PO
Box. Jill will contact the company. Since the barrel timer was
down for repairs we will table the scheduling of any further jackpots on
Wednesday nights until further notice.
It was also decided that we
would skip the July meeting and meet again in August. |
