The 29th meeting was called to order by Josh Monney at 7:00 pm at the Jobsite Bar and Grill on 13 August 2007. The following individuals were present at the meeting: Josh Monney, Rodney Rulon, Andrew Musto, Rich Riggs, Jeff Lewis and Bud Shaw.
OLD BUSINESS: The first order was to discuss which Corporate Sponsors still need a banner. Cecil Mondays needs one, Lumpy’s needs one and Fiesta Flavors needs one. Josh and Andy will deliver Lumpy’s to them after the meeting tonight and Josh will ensure the others get theirs. Rich Riggs who signed up Cecil Mondays informed the board that Roger from Cecil Mondays donated his membership to Scott Robinson of Eudora and Rich will ensure Scott gets his membership card.
The next issue was to discuss Sid’s Poker Run, Diane Hunt was not present again and has not provided any updates since she volunteered to coordinate this event and as thus was replaced. Josh Monney and Jenny Moses (KBEF Web Master) will handle the cards at Sid’s Run. Sid’s Run will be a simple event with no raffle items or no 50/50 cash draw. Wally Borth is one of the KBEF’s new Corporate Sponsors and Sid’s run will end at his business. Wally has booked the band Arsenal for this event and, as I understand it, is not charging a cover charge, so please ensure you help Wally out with tips to help offset the cost of the band.
TREASURER’S REPORT: Jeff Lewis informed the board there was $11,369.53 in the fund. Good job this month to all those members out there signing up new sponsors and members. Together we increased the fund over $700.00 this month. That is over $1700.00 we have added to the fund in the last two months, great work. Jeff informed the board we have earned $34.54 interest in 2007 thus far.
NEW BUSINESS: The first order of new business was to discuss membership and corporate sponsors. Chuck Tapp, Teri Hodges and Kenny Nave all renewed their memberships and Cecil Mondays donated their membership to Scott Robinson.
The issue was the KBEF email address has been disabled on Yahoo, Yahoo is now charging for email accounts. Andy will send the KBEF email information to Jenny Moses and she will set up with a g-mail account and make the chance to the website.
Rodney Roulon made a motion to change the first sentence of Article XII of the Bylaws to read: In the event the Kansas Bikers Emergency Fund goes defunct; due to lack of membership participation, 10% of the fund will be dispersed to the Kansas Patriot Guard Riders, 10% will be dispersed to the American Legion Riders, $200.00 will be dispersed to each Corporate Sponsor in good standing and remainder of the funds divided equally among the members in good standing. Lack of membership participation will only be decided by a unanimous vote of all board members Motion was seconded and voted and passed.
A motion to adjourn the meeting was made, motion was seconded and meeting was adjourned at 7:47 pm.
The next meeting will be conducted at the Jobsite Bar and Grill in Olathe at 7:00 pm. on 10 September 2007. (3 Sept is Labor Day)
