The Treasurer Assistant supports the Treasurer and Executive Committee. The Treasurer Assistant performs day-to-day maintenance activities to support the programs and activities of the organization as directed by the Treasurer and Executive Committee.

In the event the Treasurer becomes unavailable to perform their duties, the Treasurer Assistant may perform Treasurer duties until the Treasurer position can be filled. The Treasurer Assistant has no vote on the Board of Directors or Executive Committee. The Treasurer Assistant works with the income-generating committees such as Affiliate Organizations (AOs), Membership, Horse Recording, International, Licensed Officials, and Professional Development, to ensure receipt of income overseen by each committee.

The Treasurer Assistant coordinates with the Affiliate Organization Chair for the distribution of Member Designated Funds (MDF) according to the ballots each year. The Treasurer Assistant is appointed by the Executive Committee, with an annual review each November. The annual appointment term is December 1st through November 30th. If a Treasurer Assistant is not appointed, the Treasurer completes these duties (or designates to others) and is responsible for their completion and accuracy.
