Board of Directors Meeting
September 15, 2009
Licht residence
The meeting was called to order at 7:38 p.m. by President Donna Crossman.
Treasurer’s Report – we need to decide what to do with the CD that is coming due.
Licht moved to approve the Secretary’s Report, Gettelman seconded.
Old Business:
Website/Newsletter – Donna received a number of inquiries about sending the newsletter out via email instead of just a message that the newsletter is available on the website. We will do this to make it easier for members. The newsletter will still be available on the website. If members are having problems with passwords, they can contact Jane for a new one.
Young Drivers Camp – Myrna will work on the next YDC plans with Susie Acker.
2010 Clinic – We are leaning towards having individual or small group lessons with a major clinician. Jeff Morse will not be taking reservations until after Sept. We need to find a facility first. We need a facility with a large indoor arena with good footing for driving, outdoor space for driving, parking for trailers, food available close by. A number of board members are going to check with facilities they know of. Roger moved that Donna and Sheri co-chair the clinic committee, Loren 2nd. MC.
Drives – Roger Houk reported that the Wyatt’s Bunkhouse drive had four participants the weekend of Sept. 12-13, Walking Iron in Mazomanie is coming up on Sept. 27th. The toilets are ordered for the Harry Radtke drive at Didier’s in Port Washington on Oct. 4. We will have a chili dump and a cake. We will have a print donated by Peggy Spear for a door prize for every participant to be entered in. Myrna suggested that we host a “Trail Drive Clinic” next year, for members that would like to learn more about driving safely on trails.
DDC Life Memberships: We have decided that it would not be an option at this time.
New Business:
DDC Brochure: Jane sent out a sample brochure in July. We want to change the “we” language to “members”.
Safety Manual - Susie Koos-Acker knows of a club that has asked to use the Safety Manual to use as a template for their club. Donna will email Susie about their desire for either the paper manual or the electronic form of the manual.
Houk moved that the meeting be adjourned at 9:11 p.m. Smiley 2nd. MC.
Next meeting will be at Licht’s, Nov. 10th at 6:00 p.m. Donna will bring dessert.
Respectfully submitted,
Myrna Rhinehart, Secretary
