The meeting was convened in advance of the general membership meeting at Austin’s Restaurant at about 5:00 PM.

IT was moved, seconded and unanimously carried to approve the minutes from the May 31, 2006 meeting.

Doug Driver delivered the treasurer’s report. It was moved, seconded and unanimously carried to authorize Doug Driver to invest $10,000 of the club’s surplus cash in a twelve month CD; current rates are about 4%.

John Evans updated the directors on Solo activities. Dave DeBorde and Loren Enstad will co-chair the July 15th-16th event at Stead, and John Evans will chair the August 12th-13th event at Squaw Valley. Doug Driver and Jim Uchytil will co-chair the September 16th-17th event at Lovelock. Dean Benz will wrap up with the season finale at Stead in October.

Dave DeBorde delivered an update on the Time Trials program. Jim Gandy will serve as the operating steward for the July 22nd-23rd event at Reno-Fernley Raceway. The TT season finale is scheduled for September 23rd-24th at Reno-Fernley. Dave will be convening a meeting of the competition committee to organize the event.

Doug Driver reviewed the costs quoted by Wells Fargo for credit card processing, and they were prohibitively high. Don Smith suggested Costco’s service; Doug will follow up.

Scott Perry has been busy with professional obligations and has not had an opportunity to do any in-depth investigation of website management software. He will pursue the project when things slow down for him a bit.

The Solo program is in need of a large rolling floor jack to help move disabled cars off the course. Dave DeBorde volunteered to research available products. The directors authorized Dave to purchase a new jack.

Patty reminded the directors that the year is half way over, and it’s time to think about candidates for next year’s officers and directors.

Jim Gandy asked the club to issue him press credentials for the Runoffs; the directors agreed unanimously.

There being no further business to come before the board, the meeting was adjourned.

Respectfully submitted by Doug Driver, Secretary.
