Tee Cee visits the B & B (Budget and Board Meeting)

I played a game when I was a colt called, "Follow the Leader." So I thought that it would be appropriate to do just that at my next two meetings.

Look how "Executive" I look with all of these Executive
Committee Members:)
I was so excited to meet the leadership of IIAK all in one place!

These people dedicate so much of their time to our organization and we couldn't survive without them. They attend all of our meetings and do so much "on the backside" to help our organization thrive.

First, I met the Executive Committee at the budget meeting for IIAK. The Executive Committee met in our new Training Center (next door to our office). Everyone was there including our Chair, Bill Latta, Chair-Elect, John Funkhouser, Vice-Chair, Michelle Love, Immediate Past Chair, Tim Conder, National Director, Steve Kinkade, Treasurer, James England.

We went through the budget line by line and talked about the future of the Association.

A couple of weeks later we "reined" in the rest of the Board for a REAL Board meeting in Henderson, Ky.

Look how spiffy this crew is!
Here is a list of all of our Board Members:
Chair, Bill Latta
Chair-Elect, John Funkhouser
Vice-Chair, Michelle Love
Immediate Past Chair, Tim Conder
National State Director, Steve Kinkade
Treasurer, James England
Board Members:
Chip Atkins
Jason Billington
Moe Dugger
David Houk
Diana Hunt
John Ison
Michael Johnson
Aaron LaRue
Skip McGaw
IIAK Staffers Peggy, Tara and Katie were all present too!

I so enjoyed "horsing around" with this group. You would love it too!

The best way to get involved is to join one or more of our committees. Please give the office a call or email if any of the below committees interest you. It is a great way to engage with other members... and the best part, most of the committees "corral" via conference call - So you don't have to leave your comfy chair!
