Pay Pal account  Kirsten agreed to set up the pay pal account a.s.a.p. for our Chase bank account. She will try to complete that this week. Traci has been added to Chase account for 2020, Anne will help with transition for 2020, but removed herself from account for ease of handling account. Kirsten and Traci are currently on Chase account with Debit Cards. The Pay Pal account will be a seperate account (through Chase) solely for our schooling shows and clinics to ease payment for online registration of participants. Monies to be transferred to our regular Savings account from pay pal often during show and clinic registrations to help avoid fraud. 
Helmets   We confirmed that we will require all riders at official NAC events to wear an approved USDF helmet for safety reasons. Also this inclusion helps with the cost of our Insurance. This will be added to show forms. 
Website  Kay to have NAC website updated and ongoing by March 1st, 2020. 
High Point Awards   9 high point awards for 2020. We could not come to an agreement on criteria for high point awards so this is tabled for the next full board meeting. The area of dispute is whether we should required our participants to show in both shows to be eligible for the award, or let them use one NAC show, and one other show (i.e. DD or WDAAS) for scores to qualify. 
Sponcors for the High Point Awards  We discussed at length the Sponcorship to NAC, both via Individuals and Businesses. 
Individual sponcors have historically chosen a Class or HIgh point award to sponcer, such as Training Level Adult Amatuer, etc. 
Businesses have contributed to NAC to help further our educational purpose of promoting Dressage in northern Arizona through schooling shows and clinics. 
Beginning in 2020 our advertising for sponcors will be conducted through our updated Website and at NAC events.

In the Spirit of the Phippen Event 
Angelique asked that we send a letter to our fellow local dressage clubs (DD and WDAAZ) to help further recognize each clubs efforts and interest in Dressage in our area. We would 'request' that one of our three clubs host an 'Event' each year designed to bring us altogher for fun and friendship. This would be rotated each year by the three clubs.
ADD ON;  Kay please send a Clinic Flyer for our WE clinic in June out to WDAAZ and DD when it is compleated, in conjuction with posting on NAC wesite.
