the new treasurer's name is pam ?? she got up and introduced herself at last nite's meeting. she is from the coldwater area her son's race mx, and i believe she works at a cpa firm. she should be a good replacement for bobbie.

i was told by bobbie that her firm would not be handling the membership duties any more, did the board change their minds in this mornings meeting??

i believe dick bigelow was re-elected..

The Off Season

tdunn976 said:
Thank's bill for posting the schedule,
Alot went on in elections (Saturday night.) And at the new board meeting on Sunday morning.
We have a new VP. Bart Newman,so The executive board is now run by MX group.
I have no worries though as Bart has some great ideas to help promote the Tree Planting and the FES.
Bobie Marr although not our treasurer any longer will still be in the loop, her company will still be the membership administer.
New Person doing the paper,she will need our help with article.
There will be no january paper,to cut so e costs this year and Feb issue I believe will be Barts last.

Met AMA Off-road Director Chuck Weir as he performed the Risk management meeting.

Now is it the Off-Season?

Yes the Board meeting had some changes and very heated exchanges!

Pam although elected,Is not a current AMA member in good stsnding,(must be AMA for 1 year min. to be elected to board.)Pam Wiesnewski is now the treasurer.
Bobies firm had been told they weren't needed by a top official,who had to do alot of back pedelling at board meeting and the board voted to retain Bobbies firm, if they will accept.(answer in 7-10 days)
Election process was considered questionable by many on Satuday night as some rules and bylawswere not followed.
The Legislation Division did not lose their money So Far!
and The FES series should be getting better attention from the District


Dick Bigelow was unopposed and is again the Off-road congressman.

As for the Monkey Suit!
Always look the Part!

If your going to kiss alot of "AZZ" you should always look good doing it.

Made alot of new friends (even in the MX division)in the fight to keep Legislation Division going.

Smit Dog,
Jim Price Was Running For D-14 Off Road Rider Rep. Their Are 2 Positions Available, There Were 4 People Running Jim Price, Matt Crown ( Mcr Suspension And Mx A Rider ) And I Don't Remember The Other 2. Matt Crown Got One Position And I Can't Remember Who Got The Other Position. Jim Price Did Not Get Elected, Which Is Too Bad He Seemed Very Interested In Doing The Job, And Has Years Of Riding Experience In All Forms Of Racing!! Oh Well.

Makes you wonder if this is happening else where in the country. Why is Iowa Enduro Riders Association no longer part of District 22 for 2008?

Does this mean all enduos will soon have doubles, triples and table tops? Or does it mean we off roaders just get screwed for funding like every other year?

Yes a kind of coupe did happen although was told that there was no previous plan or intent?! :blah:

As you all know I can and will work with everyone.

The new VP has several good Ideas to promote the tree planting and said he thought the FES was a great series and was going to work to help promote that also.

We opened some eyes after Dick and I spoke of the legislative activities and what's in it for them.(and we kept our funding and reserves.)

Tomorrow who knows

Well then keep him away from the "slums" at LMC. Looks like you'll have to fire up the vintage "CR" and trail ride, better make up a parts order. :laugh:

I used to race against Bart in the 80's at the enduros. I know he has ridden off road before, but his focus has been more track focused in recent years.

I would like them to have an enduro but not the same weekend as the copmish HS. If they have to double up on a weekend it should be with a moto type HS like morelands or portland. Copmish has no track and draws the enduro guys. This year it well be more like enduro trail with it being an OMA nationl race also.
