AHSA ANNOUNCES RULE CHANGE
DEADLINES |
The American Horse Shows Association (AHSA) today issued the following reminder
regarding deadlines for rule changes according to Article 342 of the AHSA
rules. Standard or normal rule change proposals submitted by the general
membership of the AHSA must be received by June 1, 2001. Article 342 reads, in
part, as follows:
All proposals for rule changes from the general membership must be submitted to
the office of the AHSA in writing on the official form for proposed rule
changes provided by the AHSA (the "official form") by June 1, 2001
for forwarding to the Rules Reference Committee. Rule changes from individuals
must be submitted by a proponent named on the proposal regardless of any
committee positions held.
Rule Change Proposal forms are available at
www.ahsa.org/rulechange, including a new on-line form.
Additionally, an instructional brochure for the preparation of proposals is now
located at the same web site address. Alternatively, members may contact Marie
Murphy (859) 225-6922 for a printed copy of the Rule Change Proposal form.
Standard rule change proposals must be received from AHSA staff and AHSA
committees and councils by September 15, 2001, the latter accompanied by
minutes or certification with appropriate signatures.
There are 64 standard rule change proposals going forward for consideration
thus far in 2001. Those, and all subsequent proposals, will be posted shortly
on the AHSA web site.
