Officer Reports: Treasurer: Dave Diaz gave a report of the checking

and approved. Newsletter Editor: Ron Dehn asked for feedback on the calender
in the back of last months newsletter. He also reported there would not be a
newsletter for the month of June. Membership Chair: Don Pfost reported 180 paid
members. On June 1, he sent out names of 137 members who chose to receive Colorado
Runner Magazine. There was also an amendment to the May minutes regarding the
free Newsletters the club sends out. The amendment was approved as well. Webmaster:
Paul Labar has been doing updates as often as he can.
Upcoming Events: Belmont Butt Buster one of the Predict series races
that has a nice course, and food afterward. The Womens Distance Festival which
will provide a drawstring bag instead of a t-shirt. There is an updated logo
for the run this year. Diane Tiffany asked for help marking the course, with
race day registration, and the finish line equipment. Don has agreed to take
the equipment. Diana also wanted to update her phone number which is 564-1443.
The race will be in City Park Pavillion and this may be one of the last Distance
Festivals to be held there as there may be a charge in the future of $125. Splash’n’Dash
is going forward. There is a 500 yard swim and a run. Victoria would like to
get splits for the swim and the run, she asked for suggestions in doing so.
Survival Run/Bike Ride is something the Mike Archuleta proposed for this year.
The race was postponed in order to possibly of make it both a run and a bike
ride. He proposed having it at the test track and plans to continue to attend
meetings with updates on progress. He is having meeting with Rape Crisis as
well to plan the event.
Activity Recaps/Updates/Revisits: Cinco De Mayo was a success. Hilbert
Navarro and Ramon Arriaga were present to recap the event. There were some problems
with the series that hopefully can be ironed out for the future. One of those
problems was that some who signed up for the series actually ran the 5K instead
of the 10K for the Cinco, which altered results. Those results were later fixed.
Yappy Dog was a success. There seemed to be a response about the Yappy Dog bucket
hats. They were a nice addition. Run for Rio was a great success. There ended
up being quite the turn out for the race. It was described as an emotional experience
by those who attended the event. The t-shirts were designed by Jim Davis. The
Man who received Rios heart was in attendance, and ran the race.
New Stuff/Old Stuff: Little Run On the Prairie is still a go for June
9, 2007. No updates for this. Next meeting will be held July 11, 2007 due to
the 4th of July holiday. Pueblo West invited SCR to attend their Expo and to
put up a booth. A $500 donation was bequeathed to SCR by Michael Tearpak. A
motion to donate it to youth runners was moved and seconded. Troy Davenport
also came to purpose a bike ride to benefit the Child Advocacy Center. He suggested
a date of August 11, 2007. He also wants to have this as the test track and
has asked SCR for use of the clock. He wants to be on the July agenda in order
to keep updates on the event current. Last to be spoken of at the meeting was
the Picnic which the date of Sunday, August 26, 2007 was tentatively chosen.
It will be discussed again next meeting. Also having it in Beaulah again was
talked about and having Cinfully Delicious cater the event was going to be looked
into by Victoria Esquibel.
