Minutes/Nick Fleming

Motion to accept November minutes made by Rob and seconded by Tony R.

Financial Report/Rob Cook

Don’t have enough money to cover Nationals at this time. Rob will get creative with what little money we do have. (This was a very brief problem as Rob later ‘found’ $5,000. in checking)

Northwest Runner Report/Martin Rudow

• Check in the amount of $121.34 was accepted from Martin.
• The printing cost for the November issue was $2,000 more than usually. Most of the additional costs were from the Running Networks shoe review with lots of color, and extra pages.

Events/Pro-Motion/Brian Oster

• RESO run brochures are printed and here for handing out.
• We will be back in our own offices for the January meeting.
• Winter Grand Prix 6 weeks 6 races and $25.00 gets you in all 6 races.

Executive Directors Report/Brad Barquist

• Unfortunaly we don’t have shirt sizes of our membership base, so knowing what size shirt to send them is a guess. So there is still a backlog of ‘t’ shirts to be sent.
• Maybe a change in the entry forms to indecaite a size.
• Club Northwest entered four teams into the USATF National Club Cross Country Championships at a cost just shy of $10,000. Club Northwest teams did as follows;

Woman’s Master 10k First

Men’s Master 10k Forth
