[SIZE=18pt]Part 11 – Cancellation of a Horse Show[/SIZE]
A. The ASPC/AMHR Show Manager may cancel a
sanctioned show by providing the ASPC/AMHR with
written notice of cancellation. If notice is received at
least 60 days prior to the first day of the show, 75% of
the fees shall be refunded. If less than a 60-day notice
is given, no refund will be allowed, and all fees paid
for the cancelled show shall be forfeited. If the
cancellation is due to severe weather or other acts of
natural disaster, the fees paid will be refunded to the
Show Manager, less a $20.00 office fee. Any other
dues, fees, fines, or indebtedness, owing to the
ASPC/AMHR is not affected by this provision.
B. An ASPC/AMHR Show Manager may be revoked by
the Board of Directors if such show fails to abide by
the Bylaws and rules of the ASPC/AMHR for holding
and conducting horse shows or without reasonable
cause, fails to hold its show(s) on the date(s) assigned
to it.
C. An Interruption of Show Procedure can cause the
cancellation of shows. In the event of a storm or other
emergency rendering the condition of the show
grounds unsafe for the holding of a horse show, the
judgment to cancel shall be between the show
committee and at least one National Director of the
ASPC/AMHR and/or the National Office. If cancelled,
the show committee must notify the exhibitors by
every means available; i.e. radio, televisi on, phone, in
person, and the like. The show should not be cancelled
unless it is impossible for horses or ponies to perform
safely.

When you needed money at the begining of the year you went down your list of members and called them one by one asking for the renewal fee and/or to sponser a class. I did both! No one called me before cancelling this show.
Your member counts are going to be way down as a result of this and a lot of us will not be returning to any of your future horse shows because of this cancellation.
