MN President Randy Manore called meeting to order at
~ 4:20PM Executive Committee Members Attending: Randy Manore – President, Darrell Peterson -
Vice President, Mary Kemper – Treasurer Members Attending: John Smith, Linda Simon, Dennis DuErr, Colleen
Peterson, Richard Nichols, Joanie Nichols, Joel Blatz, Bill
Boeckman, Betty Boeckman, Katie Gorecki, Tim Gorecki, Kevin Dresow, Karen Kuhn, Steve Kuhn, Pat Gilligan,
Mary Manore, Dean Koehler, Secretary’s Report: The minutes from the July 17, 2005 summer meeting
were circulated. It was moved and seconded to accept the minutes. The
motion carried and the minutes were accepted as submitted. Treasurer’s Report: Mary Kemper presented the report for the period.
It was moved and seconded to accept the treasurer’s report as
submitted. The motion carried and the treasurer’s report was
accepted as submitted. Membership Chair Report: none Old Business: 2005 Fall Field Trial: The trial was successful, the club made money.
Warmer temperatures made it a little more challenging. 2005 National Open Delegates Meeting: Bill
Boeckman Member club dues remain at $75.00 for 2006. The planned 2006 National Open: The Mid-East
Interclub is hosting the event at the Hillendale Hunt Club and
Crawford Farms outside Altoona, PA. Jim Boon will be the
Field Trial Chairman. Point qualification remains at one point for the
2006 National Open. Entry fees for the 2006 National Open will be
$200.00. We have a different cutoff date for the
qualification of dogs to enter the National. The closing
date of the National Open will be eighteen days before the
starting date of the trial, and only placement in trials held
before that date will qualify a dog for entry in the National
Open A committee will be formed, headed by Bob Montler,
to look into addressing the issue of forming a “Board of
Directors” that can handle the discussion and investigation of
issues facing the National and could provide some
consistency in the recommendations that are made to the
delegates for approval. 2005 National Amateur Delegates Meeting: Mary
Kemper The 2006 club dues remain at $75.00 per club Don Bramwell announced that the 2006 NAC would
begin December 4, 2006 in the Hutchinson/McPherson, KS area.
This is the same area where the 2004 NOC was held. The 1 point qualification remains in effect for
the 2006 Nat’l Amateur 2006 NAC qualification period runs from July 1,
2005 to July 1, 2006, with a closing 30 days prior to the event.
The July 1 cut-off for qualifications continues from year to
year after 2006. Dogs placing July 1 through November 6,
2006, will be grandfathered in for this year only. Don Bramwell moved that there be a requirement
that “to be eligible to judge the National Amateur you must
have ran a dog in the past 2-3 years”. it
was decided it was too vague to warrant going back again to ask
prospective judges if they were willing to judge and/or if
they’d “ran” a dog in the past 2-3 years. Even
though the ballot still said to judge in order of preference, an
email and/or a postcard was sent out to everyone who was
qualified to vote notifying them that this rule should not have
been left on the ballot – the ballot is no longer
“weighted”. Jerry Barrett moved that the NAC Secretary contact
each person on the judges list as to their interest in judging
the NAC that year. They would need to respond - yes or no
- in writing. If no response, then the NAC Secretary is to
assume the answer is no. Seconded. Carried. Cathy Lewis moved that the judges’ ballot no
longer be weighted. Seconded. Carried. Cathy Lewis also talked about buying national
grounds. There was no motion made. New Business: 2006 Spring Field Trial: Joel
Blatz & Darrell Peterson The Open & Amateur stakes will be judged by
Tom Meyer and Tom Ness. The puppy stake will be judged by
Dennis DuErr and Mike Petrich. The all age stakes will be
run on all roosters. The trial will held April 8th & 9th
on Jamie Peterson's & Merlyn Proechel's grounds located just
south of Waseca, MN. The field trial headquarters
will be located in Owatonna, MN at the Owatonna Grand
Hotel & Convention Center. We will be having a banquet
Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. at the field trial headquarters. FIELD TRIAL COMMITTEE

Committee to address communication with parent club: There
was discussion about lack of communication from the parent club
on issues being brought up at National Delegates’ meeting
without the field trial clubs having time to discuss and give
input in time for Nat’l Delegate or parent club meetings.

Dresow, Mary Kemper and John Smith to come up with suggestions
on how to improve this communication issue. New Officer List: President:

MHESSC 2004 NATIONAL OPEN JUDGE CHOICESClay
Earl Chuck
Nelson FIELD TRIAL CHAIR/SECRETARYBeginning
spring of 2004, the AKC will be raising the fee they charge for
recording events from $0.50 to $1.50 per entry. FIELD TRIAL GUNNINGEffective
July 1st 2003, all gun captains for any AKC ESS Field
Trial must be a “graduate” of the ESSFTA field trial gunning
program. They are
also requesting that the gun captains choose their gunners from
the Q and P list first. VET CANCER REGISTRY
The
Vet Cancer Registry (www.vetcancerregistry.com) was
started to collect meaningful statistical information about
cancers in our canine and feline companions. It is now the
largest registry of its kind with over 7500 cases and
contributions from veterinarians and veterinary institutions all
over the world. It is self-explanatory, user friendly and
completely free. Although designed for veterinarians, I think
you will find lots of useful information on it. I'm also
requesting that you encourage your local veterinarian to
contribute cases. If our breed is underrepresented it is because
your veterinarians aren't contributing. It takes a few minutes
to enter a case (this must be done by a veterinarian or a
veterinary technician). It is free to them and privacy is
strongly enforced.
ISSUANCE OF FOUR BROOKS TRAINING PASSESFour Brooks training passes are $10.00 each this calendar year. One must be a member of our club or another club that belongs to Four Brooks Training. Passes can be purchased from Mary Kemper. PET CARE INSURANCEWith
pet care costs increasing, insurance may be a worthwhile option
for many. One emergency trip is usually a minimum of $250.00;
insurance companies are offering policies between $8.00 to
$18.00 a month for cats and dogs. These cover accidents and
illness, but not routine care, like vaccinations and
spaying/neutering, which can be offered for an extra fee. On the
Internet just type in the search area
“pet care insurance” and you will find many different
companies offering insurance for your pet. CLUB
