Treasurers Report
– membership dues are low compared to last year
are we seeing declining renewals?
Race attendance is down
So what, if anything could we do to push attendance?
DO we want to do anything?
Masters – similar situation to RMRR – lowering membership, but hanging in there.
Columbines – one primary race/year; 200 member, same issues
Sponsor Report
Runners Roost – update from Jimmy F, sponsor lead
Barb is interested in an exclusive arrangement with RMRR
– they want access to members and database. In return, we get
– discount to members
– they market our club, push other things…maybe MTS??
board agrees – approach Barb and see what we could do together

build a list of what we’d hope for, see what she expects
