By E. Bowers HOLLYWOOD — On June 28, amidst a flurry of cuts and a switch to zero-based budgeting, the Tribal Council voted to approve the budget for the 2000-2001 fiscal year, estimated at $203 million, which includes an increase in per capita distribution. With many of the Tribal Program Directors in attendance, Chairman James Billie stated matter-of-factly that “everyone is overpaid.” He remarked despite the enor- mous boost in revenues due to gaming in recent years, some Directors approached the fiscal process as in the past, when the Tribal budget was subsidized by federal money. When approaching the end of the fiscal year “many people have the idea that you have to blow that money,” said Billie. Upon announcing the switch to zero-based budg- eting, in which the Directors start from zero and justify all expenditures that follow, Billie warned of freezes and, in some cases, elimination of such costs as sponsorship of events, pay raises, employee travel, per diem, advertising, and equipment purchases. The Tribal member loan and assistance programs will also be scrutinized. Estimating the amount of assis- tance given to Tribal members in the past year at $9 mil- lion, Billie observed “the needy ones never come to the Tribe, it’s the greediest ones that come and ask for assis- tance.” The $50,000 cap on loans may also become a thing of the past.

The two-day event, held Friday and Saturday, included divisions for both men and women, boys and girls, and seniors. Pool sharks (and some guppies) from all over Seminole Country turned out to honor Candy and her family and to try for the $600 first place prize. Friday night the festivities got underway with the youth and seniors. Competition was fierce but friendly as the players grabbed their sticks to shoot in the one game, double elimination tournaments. Previous tournament winners felt the heat as they tried to rise to the top of the brackets. Some made it; some fell by the wayside as play continued into the early morn- ing hours. This made it kind of tough on the parents who had to return on Saturday at 10 a.m. for their own divi- sions. (Veterans of the game and these events know that lack of sleep is a given.) Play continued on Saturday until early evening for the top five positions in each division.

It was the day we held our first Rodeo Education Day. Unlike rodeo schools held all round the country, this was a day for volunteers to learn the background skills that make events run smoothly. April 2014 Newsletter Page 2 of 30 The event was held at the Henderson Saddle Association grounds in Henderson. The day started with a session on horse sense led by Chris Due and Devon Deeming and with a very biddable gelding called Diamond allowing everyone to approach, pat, and groom him and kindly raising a hoof for inspection by most folk there. Chris loves his Diamond Devon explains how to approach a horse Julio makes friends with Diamond Inspecting a Hoof This was followed by Scotty Shadix who had travelled from California to teach attendees a little about what it means to be a member of the chute crew. Real calves were sent through the chute with members positioning them and then releasing them into the arena. April 2014 Newsletter Page 3 of 30 Scotty explaining the Chute Jeffrey – Don’t Jump This was followed by a demonstration of placing the harness on a goat (ably played by Brent Rosinski) for the goat dressing and on a steer (ably represented by Jason Metzger) for wild drag.
