Comments and Suggestions in for Review

by Tina Hawkins, 2nd Vice President and Publicity/Promotion Director

 

Once again, the comment box reaped some good ideas and suggestions from NHPA members. Some of them were put in place as soon as they were received!

 

Some comments pertained to existing NHPA rules. The Council’s hands are tied on many of those, as the RGS book and the NHPA Bylaws govern them. While your suggestions may be very good – they cannot be acted upon without rules changes.

 

When you feel a practice should be updated or changed, you are encouraged to do your homework on that particular area and submit a bylaw or rules proposal.

 

All comments from the box will be reviewed and discussed by the Executive Council during its winter meeting. NO COMMENT goes unread or ignored! The World Tournament belongs to the NHPA members and your suggestions are always welcome – and you do not have to wait for the box to come out at the World Tournament. Every NHPA officer can be contacted through the NHPA website and they want and need to know your opinions. Simply select the NHPA/Officers/NHPA Officers tabs at the top of www.horseshoepitching.com to communicate with your elected officials. They are in place to work for you – the NHPA!
