BOARD MEETING
February 17, 2010
ATTENDANCE: Ed Sniffen, Tom Peichel, Janice Tower, Jim Baker, Tim Berntson, Christopher Souser, Rose Lahti (guest)
Website: Christopher chose 4 local and 3 out-of-state web designers to be considered for the design of the ABC website. The board set a budget of $X,X00 to $X,X00 for the web design. Christopher will investigate the options further and report back at the next meeting.
Ed will contact Tony Reynolds and see if we can transfer ownership of the arcticbike.org domain to the ABC.
The Board discussed the online membership feature and whether it would be possible to have one system in place to sell memberships. Currently the Road Division’s website can take memberships. Ed and Christopher will meet with Bill Fleming to find out how best to set up online membership to anyone wishing to join the club.
Club Jerseys: The board will look at producing a club jersey for the 2011 season. Tom Peichel offered to take on the project.
Bike Swap: Christopher will design a poster to advertize the bike swap which will be on Saturday, April 10th from noon to 4:00 p.m. (setup 12:00 to 1:00; sales 1:00 to 4:00) at the AT&T Sports Pavillion, 11111 O’Malley Centre Drive. Janice will contact the media to get it advertised in the paper. Janice will post announcements on various forums and notify the bike shops to come.
ABC Event Poster: Ed will coordinate an overall ABC poster which will include all ABC events: road, mountain, recreation, cyclocross. Special events such as the Fireweed and the Cyclocross race clinic may be included.
Directors and Officers Insurance: Ed is looking into purchasing D&O insurance to protect ABC board members from liability. The premium will probably be $X,X00 to $X,X00.
Sticker: Janice will get off her butt and order stickers to be given to ABC members. White background, rounded edges.
