REACH the BEACH

Our weekly training series continues and we welcome club members to join in whether or not you plan to ride Reach the Beach. Check out the weekend rides 0n our ride calendar, and see if any of the rides are what you are looking for!

MID-YEAR ELECTIONS

It’s only April, but just to keep members on track we will remind you that we will have mid-year elections in June for three board positions. The objective is to not drain the entire brain trust at the beginning of the year so at least three board  ✎  members would be left to manage things! Terms are ending for our Road Captain Rob Schroeder and Members at Large Doug Myers (who essentially swapped places with Mark Barnes in December) and Alan Mevis. Now these board members may be willing, even anxious, to continue in their current roles; however, any member may run for office and challenge the incumbents.

SAVE THE DATES!

  • Saturday, June 3, PIONEER CENTURY®: Please register for the ride, or volunteer to help.
  • Saturday and Sunday, July 15 & 16, SEATTLE TO PORTLAND BICYCLE CLASSIC: Please sign up for a shift (or more) to help out, if you aren’t riding.
  • Sunday, August 6, Annual Club Picnic at Columbia Park, with club rides.  ✎ 

The PIONEER and STP are how this club earns money. We really hope that as a member you will see the value of volunteering to support other cyclists and your club.

Additionally, your otherwise agreeable road captains will NOT allow any other rides, event or club rides, to be scheduled on the above dates. We don’t want our members distracted!

Please mark your calendars and tell your friends and family there will be no weddings, graduations, or any other gatherings on these dates.  😉  You will be otherwise occupied.
