Meeting Minutes – June 2015

Present:
Board: Karl Johnson, Paul LeFrancois, Johnny Cyril, Cheri Tutterow, Audrey Sperry, Craig Foster, Larry Richards, Larry Hickman, Cheryl Moore, Larry Hart.
Non-Board: Frank Tutterow, Teresa Hickman, Ricky Tutterow

Karl began the meeting by asking that we establish a donation policy/how much to give per rider.  Going on our average profit over the last few years and after much discussion, the general consensus is to set an amount for each rider and when the funds are gone, they are gone.  A motion by Cheryl was made to give each rider $250 until it’s gone; if we get more money than we can do more donations.  A vote was taken.  All were in favor, none opposed.  The motion passed.

The group also went over the budget for the month and had to make adjustments in certain areas to get us at our desired limit.  After the changes, a motion was made by Cheri to approve the changes in budget for the FW.  All were in favor, none opposed.  The motion passed.  (The storage fee can get moved to the FCA club in 2016 which will help with the FW budget.)
