Treasurer
Shirley reported that we have collected $660 in dues this year, and have spent $271 so far. There was some discussion about increasing membership dues to $20 because it was felt that our dues are rather low, and while we are covering our essential expenditures, there is not much extra for events or charitable donations on behalf of the club.
On the Rock bike ride
Malcom Joyce made a pitch for donations of money from club members or the club itself for the On the Rock teen bike ride event May 31-June 8 going to Ohio. They could also use experienced cyclists to help mentor youth on the ride and teach basic cycling skills along the way. COP and P66 will match donations by employees. He will be sending out an email about this project to the club.
Other items
We discussed a possible route for the 4th of July Firecracker Century that would use a park in Sperry as a turn around location and lunch stop.
Tour de Cure takes place on May 31 in Tulsa.
A May meeting is tentatively scheduled for May 19 at 6:30 pm at Mark Beckwith’s house. Address is 2124 County Road 3102 (north side of the road Pedalers know as Hudson Lake Hill Road). This is across from the train caboose.
Meeting adjourned at 7:32.
