The meeting was called to order by Patty Evans at 7:10 p.m.

 

It was moved, seconded and unanimously carried to approve the minutes from the August 2nd  board meeting.

 

No treasurer’s report was available, but Doug will provide the financials for the membership meeting on September 6th.

 

Financial discussion

Carol DeBorde requested the board approve $135 fee for logo embroidery set up for specialty Region shirts that could be ordered by members on-line from the vendor’s web site.  After discussion it was resolved that Carol should check with Embroidme who already has our logo ready for embroidery.  If the same on-line service and merchandise can be purchased through them no additional set-up fees will be required. Carol will investigate and report back to the board.

 

Time trials

A proposal has been drafted for the board to review to see if the Reno Region would support co-hosting a SFR race point’s event at RFR next season, sharing in any profit or loss.  After much discussion of the pro’s and cons it was agreed that Dave would approach the SFR board to determine interest and feesability from their stand point. If there is enthusiastic interest from the SFR board the details of how and when such an event could be held would be determined with a final decision made once all the information is identified.

 

The September Time Trial Divisional Event is coming together.  More workers are still needed. A banquet or BBQ is being planned and a sponsors are still being sought for lunches and silent auction items.  

 

Solo

Doug Driver the co-chair for Lovelock will be out of town for the event but Jim Uchytil plans on hosting.  There was discussion on how the bus will get to Lovelock.  John will contact Jim to see what assistance he needs.  A Yahoo message needs to go out the membership stating that due to an expected low turnout the run groups will most probably not run as published and participants should plan on spending the day at the event.  John will compose a message and send it out.

 

With Dean Benz moving to Las Vegas we need an event chair for Stead in October. We will solicit for volunteers at the membership meeting and also send out a Yahoo message.

 

Radios

Dave will coordinate with John Riggs to ensure we get the correct radios.  They are available from Radio Shack at $20 less than our previous supplier.

 

Web site

Dean and Scott still need to get together so Scott can continue to maintain the current web site.

 

Awards Committee

The board discussed possible individuals to help with awards.  Carol and Patty will solicit helpers.  Run, Gina, run.

 

End of Year Banquet

The board unanimously approved keeping the cost of the end of year awards banquet at $30 with the club subsidizing the difference.

 

 

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:20 p.m.

 

Respectfully submitted by Patty Evans, Secretary stand in.
