RMRR Meeting 1 July
Board members present: David R, Greg, Scott N, David K, Ang, Rick E, Michael, Dave C
June Race
Didn’t do a mass start. Could do it if we shifted to a grassy area near the ball field. Will reexamine start for next year.
Food was ok – more expensive and didn’t really use griddle, but ok
July Race
Concern about mass start. David says the course they’ve designed won’t serve well for a mass start. Discussion with David and Rick about it. Michael reported that he and Travis had been out there and identified good ways to do this. David talked about concerns with geese and goslings if we followed the old route. “They’ve been very aggressive this year”. Lots of discussion and bs.
Outcome: Race committee will meet there on Saturday am and resolve.
Paying for board shirts – Dave has a Venmo acct and will pass around to the board.
Ang will ask Travis who will pick up the shirts. Dave will work out who pays the check and get the check to the right person.
Quarterly report on races
Michael – good to announce the new course at Beck? We decided to wait until closer
MTS for August – get up on web. Schedule has not changed.
10M race at Westminster – do we want to move the start closer to the south parking lot? Rick will check with Wesminster. One concern is having the start so far away from parking. Rick willcheck with Westminster to see if we can have more people parking in the north lot…has that irritation faded?
Scoring
Working on raceday scoring. Adam has been working on this. Another test n July. Goal is that we have results on raceday by August.
Volunteer updates
VOM – Katie Weigand.
Good turnout in June.
Track – 6-8 people usually. Great if we can have more. Weather not so great as well.
Summer Suds – tomorrow next running!
Add something on the web
End of Year awards – need to work on this. Need each board member to think of new ideas.
Denver Rules on AEDs
Any event less than 2500 people needs
1. Trained CPR person
2. AED with someone who has training.
Have to buy one, certify a person or persons to do it, keep it maintained.
Rick went to City Council person. Our “out” might be some of the wording – our races only require park approval and no other agencies. We may be able to NOT require this; Rick is working with his city council person, and hope to hear shortly.
Second…we see that AEMs are “recommended”, not required.
We will wait until Rick learns more, and will discuss in our next meeting. Board members should check out the reg at (get links from Leslie’s email).
Website – Dave check this.
Bardo for next meeting.
