Regular Membership Meeting is Wednesday March 14, 2007. Smiley’s.
Elections
Nominations
for 2007-2008 officers were conducted at the last meeting.
All previous officers: Leanne
Lundquist / Secretary, Gina Taylor / Treasurer, Rick Rossier /
Vice-President, and Brian Fitzpatrick / President have been nominated
and accepted the nomination for their respective office.
In addition John Herek has been nominated for a Director’s
position. We will again be accepting
additional nominations at the March 14th meeting.
By-Laws Change
Article IV Officers Sec.1
currently reads, “The officers of the club shall be President, Vice
President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors shall consist of three (3) members. The Board of Directors shall be elected
initially by popular vote. Initially, one
(1) Board member will serve three (3) years, one (1) will serve two (2)
years and one (1) will serve one (1) year. They
will be replaced for one (1) year terms thereafter”.
We want to change the last
sentence to read “They will be replaces for three (3) year terms
thereafter.
Club Trip
Our
Club Trip was held February 16-18, 2007 at the “The Birches” on Boot
Lake in Springstead, WI. Snow conditions
in the area made it good enough to run. A
little more snow would have been a plus. Club
members at the outing included: Gina &
Pete, Leanne & Jeff, Tom & Trish, Dave & Julie, Eric &
Sally, Laura & Craig, and Diane & Brian. We
rode Friday night and did about 60 miles. As
a group, we met for pizza at the Birches. On
Saturday we rode as a group and did about 55 miles.
Part of the group went back out and did another 50 miles. AS a group we dined at the Frontier, and dined
on pizza at the Birches. Carey Larson and
his family joined us late Saturday night.
It was good to get out as a group. Especially considering the lack of snow we
have been dealing with for most of the winter. Special
thanks to Gina for doing the organizing part of this event.
Local Weather and Trails
Hopefully most of our club members have had the rare opprotunity to
ride the trails locally. Thanks to all the
surrounding local clubs for the efforts in grooming the trails. Diane & I did see a groomer that had left
Smiley’s heading south toward Almond. This weekend is expected to be
warm and next week is even warmer.
