Status of truck – Steve E – 5 min a. Titled to AZ region. So we need to fix that. Steve will talk with Chris Page to get it transferred to us. Then we need to get rid of the truck, and maybe the trailer. 4. Equipment update – Ben Z – 5 min a. Going to order a new Yagi antenna post. Our current one is broken. 5. Registration and waiver process changes update (Guests, cancellation policy, no shows) – Lance H, Faith H, Kevin V – 5 min a. Lance is happy with the process. Mechanics are becoming more streamlined. b. Cancellation policy was updated to say that you need to cancel before registration ends to get a refund. If you cancel after reg closes, you may not get one. c. Chris S will buy some more stickers for tech. d. Need to talk with Jim B to ask other events to keep their people out of our event area. 6. Exploration of additional sites update- Ben Z/Brian M - 5 min a. No new updates from Ben. b. Brian called 5 sites. 2 responses: WHP, Radford, Arizona downs. WHP and Radford are expensive (3.5k-5k per event). Arizona downs lot is mostly oiled gravel not paved. 3 airports said no in the past. c. Do we want to have any 2 day events this coming year? Do we want to have a drivers school? 2 day event tentatively scheduled October 19-20. 7. Banquet and awards plans: - Danielle S, Ally A. - 5 min a. Awards banquet after the January event at Shop beer co. Will have a food truck, and we have the whole outside of the place. b. Club can pay for food with the truck. Or we could get catering. c. Originally wanted jackets for awards, but the timescale is too long. So going with etched pint glasses instead to go with the brewery theme for the banquet. 8. Social media presence – Danielle S – 5 min a. Danielle wants to help boost our social media. Already on Facebook, but wants to get access to Instagram to add more content in addition to Kei. 9. MLK Road course event – Ken M. – 5 min a. Ken is working on it. b. Survey was overwhelmingly in favor of doing this, with the same course map (because of speed of approval). c.

SCCA onboard with event and is planning the tour in Feb. b. Kevin is working on the agreement with SCCA national, and what the region needs to provide to support the event. 11. Course worker captain responsibilities – Kim K – 10 minutes a. Corner Captain worker guide has been made (idea from David Alter) b. It’s a single sheet we can pass out to each corner captain, so responsibilities are clear. c. Email out to people too, put on website, have Kei go over at cone clinic. d. Ben will make it 2 pages: simplified bullet points on front, more detail on back. 12. Summer event this year? – Brian M. – 5 min a. Not a lot of good places.
