Racinbob 11,919 #1 Posted January 17, 2015 Especially since I'm going to the show this year I decided to join the WHCC and sent them a check on Jan. 2. I received the membership packet today. It struck me as odd that the membership card says my membership expires on June 1, 2015. I go to their site to see if I can log in as a member and it says I have to register first. I don't have a login or password and I don't see anyplace that would allow me to register so I decided to email them. First to the email address that's on the application. Undeliverable. I tried another one from the site. Again, undeliverable. I can't help but believe that it's just me doing something wrong. There's phone numbers to call but I thought I'd inquire here first to see if anybody knows the problem with login in and the short membership. On the bright side, a flier was included on the show. As expected, the show dates are what we all thought and not what's on the South Mountain Fairgrounds website. I haven't heard back from them yet but I do want to make sure they realize the mistake.

Racinbob 11,919 #2 Posted January 17, 2015 Maybe because I'm inquiring about a mambership instead of a membership? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,919 #3 Posted January 17, 2015 The email failure notice had this: Reason: 550 5.7.0 (COL004-MC2F7) Unfortunately, messages from (74.208.171.221) on behalf of (yahoo.com) could not be delivered due to domain owner policy restrictions. Maybe their system rejects emails from a yahoo account? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,744 #4 Posted January 17, 2015 All the memberships end in June. Just re up at the show and you will be good until June 16. I don't think the web site gets updated much. The have a Facebook page, maybe you'll get a better answer there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,919 #5 Posted January 17, 2015 Thanks Mike. This is on their website so it threw me. All active WHCC Memberships are for a period of one year (365 days) and expire on the 365th day after you last subscribed. I'm not really concerned about renewing sooner. I'd say you're right about no updates on the site. I don't do the Facebook thing but maybe I should start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ericj 1,579 #6 Posted January 18, 2015 i'm on the board of directors for the whcc. i just notified charlie culley who is the treasurer for the club and he said that he will get a hold of the fair board and get the date straightened out on their site. as far as our web site it has been quite the problem child for a long time we switch care taker for the site and was assured he would get it straighten out but he has been to busy to deal with it also. so unfortunately we are back at square one and are at his mercy.i guess to save expense as far as i know we don't pay to have our site maintained so we have volunteers do it for us and that is part of the problem you can't holler at somebody who is not charging you do something. but like i said i THINK this is what we do but i'm not 100% sure eric j 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,919 #7 Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks for chiming in Eric. It's certainly not something I'm upset about and my posting this was an inquiry rather than a complaint. These great little red tractors are an incredible hobby and I'm just thankful for the WHCC for having the show and this forum. For no better known than what Wheel Horses are nation and world wide the following they have is simply amazing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
