Treasurer
Income is down by $2,000 from last year, YTD. Membership income is down $425 and Trophy Series income is down $1,170. I’m assuming that there are some checks in the cash box or PO box that will bring the membership income up. The Trophy Series income category also picks up uncategorized cash from the cash box and is really just a timing issue. So, overall, while I do think income is down slightly, it isn’t as much as would first appear.
The good news is that expenses are down by $2,200, so overall, the club is “in the black” YTD.
Trophy Series Race – June
4K – Bible Park – went well, breakfast well managed. Did run out of pancakes, so need to buy a little more next year. Some people didn’t get pancakes (Dave C for one)
Trophy Race – July 13, 8 am – Race 2 mile Stonehouse (Scott K, Rob Sanchez and David R)
Volunteers – Steph sent out call for volunteers
Race course – same as last year.
Races
Marathon Training – no one officially signed up to direct races yet. Michael LePage volunteered to do one. David R will do another, and will find the other director.
August – Dave C will direct, probably with Ric R help. Steph agreed to get food. Space Age Credit Union people will be there to push membership.
October Race – Back at Parker – Bob Basse and Eric Green to Direct
Volunteer of the Month – June
Kristin Mott for scoring. She spent time learning and dealing with a tricky month of results
Getting more club involvement
>> Dave C will send mailing talking about list of possible activities and pushing new people to get on the board. Will use MailChimp. Done by end of July.
Marketing Dave C
I am a Runner – Plan to provide Polar insulated water bottles to members to reward race involvement and member referrals. Dave C showed all Lisa’s designs to general approval. We liked the solid letters because they’re more visible. Dave explained the wrapper approach we can use with Polar bottles. Group approved buying 200 with runners on one side, RMRR logo on the other.
>> Dave getting a quote, will work with Polar and Lisa to complete.
How do members get one? Dave’s idea = 5 club races, 3 club and 3 away, or one referral of a new member. We would do this retroactive to Jan 1.
Dave C turned in new ad for August Colorado Runner with Sept – Nov races and MTS.
>> Active – Dave C will post Marathon training events this weekend.
Denver Marathon Waterstop – we’re signed up for first half of course to get half and full marathoners.
>> Dave C to find out where the stop will be and let board know. Will need to get volunteers out early!
Stacy Bolyard: person from Phoenix interested in getting involved – ask her what she would like to do, maybe emphasis on building activity and involvement.
>> Dave C working with her and will report back.
Phiddipides – has been posting things from Facebook and having an active presence, also encourages others to post.
>> Is there someone who could drive this for us? Someone who’s active and can do this a couple of times a week to encourage others to post? Does Stacey want to continue this? Dave C contact Stacy and see what she’s thinking.
>> Deb – check into more cones because we’ve lost lots of our smaller ones – Home Depot? Other places?
Track Wed – North High 6:15pm 32nd and Federal
Year-end awards – what to do for this year?
>> everyone bring 3 ideas to next meeting on July 28
initial thoughts: hoodie shell; heavier running top like Dave C got at Bighorn
Next Meeting Monday July 28, 2014
