Siskiyou Velo Board Continues to Meet Monthly
by Harlan Bittner on Apr, 21 2020
Despite Oregon’s stay-at-home policy, your club’s board is continuing to meet monthly—by means of a virtual meeting conducted via Zoom. In fact, our next board meeting is Monday, April 27, at 5:30 pm. One of the topics we will discuss is our current suspension of club-sponsored group rides and what metrics we will look for in order to resume group rides. Any club member is welcome to attend from home by computer, tablet, smartphone, or regular phone. If you are interested in attending, please email president@siskiyouvelo.org. Instructions on how to attend will be emailed to you.
Speaking of the Board, I thought you might be interested in the current board members and their positions. Voting for board positions was conducted prior to the annual meeting, held during the holiday party last December, and results were announced at the meeting. Officer positions and committee chairs were decided by the board at the January meeting this year. The one exception is Robin Dressler, who was appointed to the board last month and who has taken on the position of social activities chair.
Until we can resume group rides, I hope you are getting out for at least an occasional ride with family or a friend or two. Stay healthy!

Harlan Bittner, President

Dennis Cramer, Rides chair
Robin Dressler, Social Activities chair
