OUSA Board Call!
Actions:
1. We approved the rules changes written by Clare to reflect the Sport Working Group's proposal (which was passed at the September 16). The key points were (1) allotting one event day National Ranking Event with waived sanctioning fees for each club each year - as a "gateway" to getting more club members to attend national events, (2) allowing WY runners to look at their maps before the start for all but Junior Nationals, and (3) two minor clarifications about control descriptions and untimed legs (for safety reasons).
2. There was a second rules change in which local event starts for club dues were modified to allow for events that have multiple races in the same day and are organized as a single event (e.g. Seattle's Sprint Tournament or a set of minicourses at a school). It creates flexibility by giving two options for how local event start dues are computed.
3. At present, OUSA only had two people who could sign checks - the President (Kris) and the Director of Membership and Accounting (Robin); we voted to give the VP Finance (Pat) and Sandy signing authority.
4. Finally, we talked at great length about the budget. There are some questions the finance committee needs to dive into, but we're looking to spend about $75k on programming next year allocated among several areas. I'll publish details as soon as practical, and I encourage interested parties to attend our Board call on Dec 21.
