AUGUST 27, 2010

Dear Members:

This letter is to keep you up to date with the happenings involving the FSBOA since our 1st meeting with Mr. Rob Wyre, the new general manager of The Isle at Pompano and also to give you follow up information on the letter and ballot that was circulated by the anonymous “Count Your Ballot” group.  

The negotiating committee met with The Isle on Thursday August 19th and again on Tuesday August 24th and we are optimistic that we have moved closer to reaching an agreement during these meetings. We will advise you of the progress made at these meetings as soon as we have meaningful information to report. Check the FSBOA web site for any updates, if you don’t have internet access call the FSBOA (954-972-5400) and we will mail you this information when available.

To keep you updated with the actions of the “Count Your Ballot” group we can inform you of the following information provided to us by The Isle. This group approached The Isle and stated that there is a possibility they would form their own horseman’s association and that their new group should represent the horsemen instead of the FSBOA.  

This confusing message to The Isle’s management directly led to the delay in securing our second meeting. Fortunately we were able to point out to Isle management that Florida state law acknowledges the FSBOA as the only recognized association responsible for any and all agreements and the recipient of any moneys due the Standardbred Industry in the State of Florida . We are glad that this issue has been resolved with the Isle and look forward to our next meeting with them.  

Thank you all for your support and help during this trying time in our Industry but we believe that we are headed in the right direction and we will achieve our goal of a fair and equitable agreement with The Isle.

The Negotiating Committee

Christine Garrity
Steve Stabile
Dave Myrick

IMPORTANT MEMO

Fellow FSBOA members:

The FSBOA has verified with John Yinger, Director of Racing that anyone that has had stalls allocated to them will be able to have access to the barn area the week of September 20th  to have bedding delivered and to get their stalls ready so that your horses can be brought onto the grounds September 27th. We trust this will clear up any questions you may have.

The FSBOA looks foreword, with optimism, to the upcoming stake season which will start on Saturday October 2nd. The entry box for these first stakes races draw will close on Wednesday September 29th at 9:00 am. Sorry no late entries will be accepted.

We wish all good racing Luck!

FSBOA Board of Directors
