The Board has decided that to plate, register, and insure the “tube” is far too expensive compared to having a member tow the trailer. The Board has decided to use the trailer instead and maybe compensate the member that brings the trailer to the event(s).

The Board has decided that there will be no more leather jackets offered to club members to do the cost of getting said jackets and having them embroidered.

The Board discussed replacing the leather jacket award with an award of the recipients choice, i.e. Wheel would like to purchase a race flag set for his price. The price has yet to be determined.
