BENEFIT SHOWS
Benefits are more than welcome and are the primary source of income to keep the CMC&R thriving. Ads in the CME are ½ price (overpayments considered donations). We have a regular series of monthly point shows with members volunteering as judges. There are three divisions: original finish (OF), customized (CM), and OF China/Resin horses, with 32 classes in each division. Entry fee is $1.00. There is a year end award for the series that is separate from the YEA's. Points from these shows also count towards CMC&R YEA's. Details in the CME.
NOVICE SHOWERS
The CMC&R appreciates the value of the new shower; therefore, we have a separate division for them at the Nationals, as well as a special year end award for them. We also encourage individual show holders to offer classes for novices at their shows. A novice shower is anyone who has been showing 2 years or less. The time is taken from when you first join the club. Photos entered in novice classes must be taken by a novice.
CORRESPONDENCE
All correspondence requiring a reply must be accompanied by a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE). We welcome any and all questions.
