Board Meeting Highlights

A couple of highlights from the Board Meeting that have direct bearing on mountain biking.

• waivers will be reviewed to make sure that they are adequate - can we get away with one blanket waiver, apparently not.
• discussion about inherent risk of non-sanctioned events
• LTAD (long term athletic development) has produced its second volume which is designed for clubs - more information will be forthcoming
• The current financial situation was discussed, each committee was asked to have their budgets done as soon as possible with a deadline of January 11th. (I will be posting some information here shortly looking for input - Hal)
• The MCA is looking for sponsorship opportunities
  
• The joint race calendar is to be set on January 17
• A joint mountain bike, KOM race needs to be planned, ideally before the end of June.
• A new fee structure is in discussion with a new citizen's class/license being planned (for first timer's only) that will be not much higher in cost than a non-race membership. This is to encourage new interested cyclists to give racing a try.
