Circumstances were discussed and suggestions were made that might eliminate future issues of the same type from happening again. NEW BUSINESS – Dan spoke of an opportunity for the Friends of PIR that Gary Bockman came upon. They could use help to do some work at the local fi re station like spreading gravel, weeding etc. Dan encouraged us to become involved. Conference has decided to donate $1 per car per race to FOPIR, which would amount to about $1,000. Todd suggested that we do the same only use our budget process rather than putting it on our entry form for the drivers. We will discuss this further at the next meeting. The web page was discussed and a $ fi gure was presented. This would be to do the design work and also to migrate the old info into the new. The new site would also include Rally & Solo. Judy mentioned that she did not feel that it should look like other regions since we would be using the same designer. Dan felt that he doubted that many members go to the other sites and that actually it could be a benefi t as it would be easier to navigate since it would be similar. Nick felt that since we would be using a professional group it would most probably be great. Dan called for the question as to if we should proceed. M/S (Judy/Nick) M/P REGIONAL OFFICE REPORT – Billed 98 hours in April vs. estimate of 140. Forecast 140 for May. The company who insured the Inland Marine Equipment for Road Race & Solo declined to renew those policies. Our agent was able to obtain a combined policy for both groups at half the cost we were paying. The policy covers our combined schedules of equipment of $94,576. Road Race & Solo will each pay $674.50 to the region, as Oregon Region has paid the premium. Savings to Road Race is $460.50: Savings to Solo is $525.50 We also have a Fidelity Bond in effect since February 1999. This covers losses due to dishonesty on the part of the Reg. Exec, Treasurer, Offi ce Mgr, and newsletter editor up to $50,000 each after a $1,000 deductible. The premium for this bond is $259 per year. Karen provided fi nancial reports for review.

During Rose Cups we will fi nd the Solo group doing their thing up in Packwood, WA. Andy will check with his group about the web site. He feels that theirs is lacking and they might be interested in joining our project. RALLY REPORT – Chris advised that there would be a Ntl/Div/Reg event this weekend at WA. County Fairgrounds. June 30th will be The Gran Prix Rally in conjunction with the All Club Party. The recent Stage Rally was a huge success and kept the Rally Group very busy. It proved to be the biggest one that Rally America has staged with 76 entries. The winner was an entrant from Australia. Pro-rally, there was a display set up in Pioneer Square that was a big hit with the public and will be utilized in the future for like events.

Suggestion from PR group is to consider making all pit crew offi cial SCCA members to increase membership. Still working on N.PDX youth donation (Todd Harris and ProDrive working with Mark at PIR to come up with the best opportunity here for N.PDX youth and for SCCA interaction). Cindy Lux and Scotty White ran successfully at Long Beach with support from our region in Speed Challenge. Another community invitation advertisement appeared in the Sunday Oregonian (all funds donated) for our last April SCCA race. Our next (all funds donated ad will appear for Rose Cup weekend). We are pretty sure of securing a free ‘spot’ in the Friday A&E section of Oregonian in future for our races. ROAD RACING DIRECTOR REPORT –: Trend is positive with entries being up for 2 events in a row, March and April. There is a lot of interest in the May Regional/National and in the June Rose Cup weekend, expecting the up trend to continue. Karen will distribute the Road Race April budget vs. actual summary to the BoD. Overall we are looking good, expenditures match plan, just slightly out of sync with budgets sanction and insurance payments vs. actual. (Sanctions and Insurance minimums paid 45+ days ahead of actual scheduled event). Entries up and revenue up. April 2006 was 108 entries. April 2007 was 124 paid entries + 1 comp entry. Total 125 entries Budget was $24,490, actual race revenue was $28,290. All other expenses for the weekend inline with expectations. 80 of our 125 entries were via the online registration system at Motorsportreg.com (Continued on Page 31)

Question: Would Solo like to look at our online registration system http://oregonscca.motorsportreg.com and see if something like that makes sense for Solo as well? Web site: Rough estimate from Chico Web Design received. They are working on a formal proposal and hope to have it to us in time for 5/3 BoD. This is based on their work looking thru our web site and on the knowledge gained from redeveloping the SFR web site. See: http://sfr.chicodev.com/index.php to check out the SFR site underdevelopment. This site is built with Joomla! which is open source, easy to learn and provides a consistent look and feel for our 3 venues. Chico Web Design has received very good comments and reviews by the SFR team working with them and comes highly recommended for this project. Dan Halloran will lead the discussion on funding and potentially going forward with this. Rough estimate is in the $10K ballpark. PAST RE – Absent ASST RE REPORT - No report RE COMMENTS – Dan covered his area of concern during the member discussion period as well as the New Business report.
