No feedback on ramble (Kristin out) went over and there is a new leader and the ’25 mountain grand view.

AutoX went well, not heavily attended – could have been due to rain/Mother’s Day. Weather (standing outside is not a fun event for folks) and the Dates are auto assigned through the sports club of America. Next event will take place on Father’s Day

Some new rules (strict) noise levels regarding cars and some got disqualified on the first run, so many began to share a car, the driver is not disqualified. Provide some options around how to soften the noise/sound (to quiet the car)

Thompson looking good eighty sign-up for Memorial Weekend, and it looks like there are 7 days remaining and hoping more and will check the numbers throughout the week.

Porsche’s and Coffee at university 8:00am and 40-50 cars showed up and a broad selection of cars/people and that was a good event.

Glenn

According to the bylaws, we must elect nomination committee chair to find next year’s board candidates.  We should discuss bylaw changes as discussed in executive session to allow board members to have a 3yr term vs. 2yrs.

Glenn believes that year 1 is a learning year.  Year 2 the board member is fully up to speed. Then we start the cycle over again

Chair needed / community coordinator (Christian) community partnership manager – someone who can manage our charitable contributions. We ask the club for other members for their input in terms of who we support and not always working through the military sleeve and allow everyone to have a say in the charity for other groups, mental health etc. where does this role fit, and it will report to the president.

Luis recommended.

Bailey second
