Bartlesville Pedalers meeting
October 19, 2015
Harwood residence
10 attending
6:40-7:30 pm
Shirley provided a financial statement showing a balance of $1581.62.
Discussion took place about how to increase the participation in the Boys and Girls Club ride. Posters to put up in bike shops, placement on various online ride calendars, and an increased social media outreach effort were all thought to be important steps to get the word out, as well as highlighting the scenic nature of the route through photos or video. There was agreement among those at the meeting that the route this year was good and should be repeated in the future.
There was some discussion of discontinuing the free first year of club membership for new members.
There was some discussion of establishing a nominating committee for club officers, as most officers are now nearing the end of their 2-year term limit.
Rod’s 75th birthday is October 31. Be looking for an announcement about a party/open house/dinner at his house on November 1 from 4-8 pm.
The next club meeting will be November 16, and will include a potluck at the Freeman residence at 6:30 pm.
The annual Pedalers Christmas party has been tentatively scheduled for December 10 at 6:30 pm at Luigi’s restaurant where it was held last year.
