Any one interested in a collection of AERC Year Books from 1974 to the present? What am I offered for them? Bob Bob Morris Boise, ID...
Oh my gosh, yes, I would love to have those! Yikes, what do you want for them??? Carla Richardson Colorado...

I was just contemplating tossing mine as well. If anybody really wants them, there are 3 boxes of them on the west coast as well:) Laura Fend Walnut Creek,...
I was wondering what the members would think about having in the place of the yearbooks a spcieal edition of the Endurance News- A year of Review or something...
Connie, The biggest budget items are the EN and Yearbook. If cost have to be cut there is really no other place to cut. It is going to take some creative ...
What I loved most in the really old yearbooks was reading where the individual award winners wrote about their horses. I could do without all the stat...

That would work. It's kind of fun to look at all of the results in one place, but now that we have all of that on the internet it seems like an unnecessary...
I think you could cut costs on Endurance News as well. Although it is really nice as it is, it really isn't necessary to have all the glossy pages. The old...
Connie- This is an excellent idea. Of course, there are more than a few ways to document all the usual pictures and articles that would not be in the special...
I like this idea -- but would like to warn that a lot of that $18000 will not be saved. The same amount of information should be produced which means that the...
I think it is a great idea Connie! I would much rather not have the yearbook than not have EN. It would save $$$ all around. I don't think I ever even...

I think this is a good idea.??Re-publishing the ride results from all of the year's rides is redundant, IMO.? I do like the section that lists the riders and...
Perhaps we should archive the yearbooks on "permanent CD" with a database look up. I wonder how much this would cost. I am surprised MB has that many. I am...
Eric- I doubt this is the case. For instance, race results are all ready tabulated and can be made available on line just as easily. For some of the more...
1. Those of you using boots for both Endurance and CTR, what are you using? 2. Anyone know when EB Cuffs will be released? I do a handful of rides a year....
Hi Sharon: I just came back from a ride where Garrett Ford did a demo on Easyboots using one of my horses. Those new Glove boots are awesome. No hardware...
What Dawn said. :-) I agree. We don't need the ride results repeated, those are already on line and also in all the EN's during the year. But I do like the...

... Hi Connie - thanks for asking. I can tell you what riders think that ride a lot - we want the yearbooks in print form. There are several of us that often...
Yes, The Glove is the Glue-on with the gaiter. The glue-on's are recommended to use the Vettec Adhere,it just goes on the lower walls not the sole at all. I...
I must say Connie, that I agree with Karen. I have often pulled out the yearbooks to check stats on a ride that I am planning on attending. Especially if it is...
Thank you for all the comments. You all have very good ideas. Please keep sending any good suggestions my way as we may be considering some changes in the...
Count me as another one who wants a printed yearbook. I've pulled them off the shelves many times to research things that are not as easily retrievable online....
