​

• Budget – Directors reviewed the draft that Grant had prepared, and small changes were made resulting in no change to the annual membership fee of $35.  Grant will finalize and bring back to next meeting.                                                                          

• Indoor Spinning? – Sheri Ojero joined the meeting by phone. Sheri outlined the tentative arrangements for the winter spinning ‘camp’. Three Sundays (Feb 24, March 3, and March 10). The dates and the $5 fee for non GoodLife members are consistent with prior years. Sheri will finalize with Goodlife, Grant will take payment to Goodlife ($432.75), and Nancy will follow up on new requirement to submit club insurance certificate. 

• Ride Leader Training and Spring Social – Agreed on dates that are consistent with last year: 

  • Spring Social – Friday March 1, 2019 

  • Ride Leader Training – Wednesday March 27, 2019

Sheri will investigate suitable venues. Sheri left the meeting. 

• Member Survey – Directors reviewed the draft survey and made some changes. Nancy to make changes. Survey to be sent to last year’s members and results to be reviewed at next meeting. 

• Ride Leader Online Sign Up Method – Directors discussed changes being studied by Brian and Lesley Scime (web master). New process would allow ride leaders to go onto website anytime and sign up for rides they are available to lead. They could see routes by date. Members would be able to check this website before rides to see if there were ride leaders for upcoming rides. Directors noted this would eliminate the need to rider leaders to commit to dates up to a month in advance which had been a complaint in the past. Brian will report back next month on progress.
