Business Meeting Agenda
-Elections: I feel as though we need to tighten our democratic process a bit. The club charter requires an annual election of club officers and it was pointed out this year that many club members may not know who are our current club officers. Here is a list of board positions and the people currently performing those duties:
President-Mike Hendrickson
Vice President-Heath Holste
Secretary/Treasurer-Gordie Boggie
Legislative Officer-Steve Anderson
Referee-Jim Winterer
Insurance Communications Officer-Brenda Peterson
Member at large (A position not required by the club charter but necessary for the AMA charter)
Al Gohlike
Martin Belair
Tom Elbert
Steve Ahlers
Brad Villand
Steve Kirshner (Who also performs the duty of keeping the season championship points in order)
We will need to elect / re-elect officers. Anybody interested in running for office should attend the business meeting to declare their intention. If we have two or more people interested in a position we will need to hold a vote during the banquet, if the positions are uncontested we can vote during the business meeting.
-DISTRICT 23 MEMBERSHIP:
We will discuss (not argue) the merits of joining D-23. I believe there will be adequate representation on both sides of the issue so we will be able to make an informed decision. I would like to keep the debate contained in the business meeting, so if you want to voice your opinion (constructively) please be at the meeting. Further individual discussion can occur during the social hour after which we will put the motion to a vote by all members in attendance.
FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN FUN
Social Hour: Cash Bar, Unlimited Free Soft Drinks, Lively Conversation.
Dinner: The we have selected a menu that includes Beef Kabobs, Chicken & Fettucini, Salad and bread. I have been assured that we will not experience the service SNAFU’s we encountered last year at meal time
Awards: What can I say, you worked hard and deserve to be recognized, admired, heckled and harassed before of a gathering of your peers.
Door prizes: We will have many door prizes generously provided by Montessa USA, The hop Shop, Sherco Rider, Sette Sports Center and The Bike Shed. Prizes include oil, chain lube, tires, grips, apparel and at least one gift certificate for $1500.00 of the purchase of a new trials motorcycle (you will need to attend to lean which brand).
SEE YOU THERE!!!!
