CVR - Meetings

Secretary's Notes -
July 1, 2002 Meeting

At Dave/Laura's House; In attendance: Richard Cleveland, Dave Kissner, Bob Murphy, Donna Smyers, Norm Robinson.

Remarked on the low attendance at informal running events, Fun Runs, and at most races.

Membership list coordination: Donna handles the mailing list for race mailings, but does not have any idea when preparing lists for mailing who the members are. She suggested having Laura, when first getting new memberships, pass them on to Donna for her to keep track of members, and then provide mailing labels for Jamie for each newsletter mailing. All thought this was a good idea and encouraged Donna to proceed with this. Dave also mentioned that Laura could keep surplus newsletters to send out to each new member with the membership card.

Central Vermont Race Series rules: Bob Murphy, whose taken on coordination of this grand prix race series, wished to clarify several issues with the rules governing the series. Main issues decided at the meeting are the following:
Membership - to fulfill the membership requirement, any series participant who becomes a CVR member on the day of the last race (Leaf Peepers) becomes eligible in the series for that year.
Volunteer points - any computation / calculation for volunteer points was deemed to be more effort than it was worth, and a simple volunteer requirement was established. That requirement is that one must volunteer at any CVR race or event (excluding Fun Runs) to become eligible in the series for that year. Bob Murphy has finalized all of the other rules regarding the race series, which can be found on the CVR website.

CVR - GMAA picnic: Richard Cleveland was going to check with GMAA President Steve Eustis to learn of GMAA's interest level, to possibly determine how many GMAAers will be coming to the event.

Next Meeting: Tuesday, September 9, 2002, 6:30 pm - Norm Robinson's house. (See notes.)
