Introduction of Board
Members
Committee Reports:
Treasurer: Getek distributed a report that showed total assets in excess of $46,000.
Membership: Maguire distributed a data summary from the updated membership database she has been working on with Zander. She discussed plans to create an optional club membership directory in PDF format for the website.
Training Programs
Track: Track regulars reported that attendance holds at 40+ each week, and that track access has resumed after several workouts on the trails in May.
Saturday Long Run: O’Brien reported that the start has moved to 7am and that participation remains strong. Chris Kupczyk has been doing a great job handling refreshments for the group.
Marathon Training Program: O’Brien and Reid reported that the program was full and a wait list had been started. Plans for the program, which is to begin July 10, include training in conjunction with SLR and Track as well as veteran marathon “coaches” to act as mentors.
Newsletter: Larose reported that the next newsletter was in progress and looking for story writers.
Education/Welcome Wagon: Currently on hiatus.
Past and Future
Races
Past: The spring race schedule was full and races took place as scheduled.
Future: The Club is moving into the busy season of the Bunion Derby and is in need of many volunteers for these events.
Other Business
Scholarship: Platt presented a detailed model for the scholarship program, similar to the previous program but without the applicant essay requirement. Maher thanked Platt for his work and said that the board will continue to consider how best to model this program. No decision was made.
Executive Session
The Board conducted an executive session from 8:15pm to 9pm. It was decided that an annual audit would be instituted beginning with this past fiscal year.
Maher adjourned the meeting at 9pm.
