M.I.S.C. board meeting, February 12, 6:30 pm, Karl & Gina's home
Marilyn distributed the proposed outdoor schedule. Additional updates
were made regarding the trail cleaning days. This schedule would be
used as handouts for the wheel rotation nights at the Rollerdome. The
Monday fun skate locations were asked about. These plans were in the
works. (Webmaster's note: The locations were sent out in an attached
document. They are now posted on the schedule section of the web site.)
Grampa Craig's 75th birthday on June 19 was discussed. It was agreed
that the club will do something special for him on the Monday skate on June
17, provided that's convenient with him.
Todd reported the details regarding his conversations about trail cleaning
arrangements for the Cedar Lake Trail and Big Rivers Trail. We scheduled
a monthly cleaning day from April through October.
A memorial skate for Mike Barrett (a former member) is being planned for
August 8 at 6:30 pm at Lake Harriet. The club will include this on their
outdoor schedule and help promote attendance.
Membership in the Minnesota Parks and Trails Council was discussed.
It was decided to find out more information and answers to questions before
proceeding further.
Greg gave an update regarding club sponsorship. He presented a sample
letter and listed prospective contacts. We agreed to consider the Rollerdome
as a sponsor, as it gives us discounts and publicity.
Gerry reported on the special events plans. The first wheel rotation
day at the dome was a great success and the second one was coming up along
with the Member Reunion day at the dome.
Bruce reported the 2001 membership was 132. Memberships for 2002 are
being accepted now.
Marilyn suggested getting a P.O. box for the club. We've been using
Bruce's mail box for several years. This was approved and Marilyn will
make the arrangements.
Bruce suggested newsletter target dates of end of March, early to mid June,
end of August, and mid to end of October.
The next meeting is March 12 at 6:30 pm at Karl & Gina's home.
Agenda items will include:
- sponsorship update
- t-shirt selection and design
- outdoor events planning
