Update from Death Valley Membership Meeting

Greetings Everyone,

It was great to see club regulars and new guests at Death Valley.  A number of items came up during the Membership Meeting that I’d like to communicate to the club at large.

Elections

June is rapidly approaching, and that means it is time to elect Officers for the next fiscal year.

All Officers serve for one year.  You can nominate someone or yourself for a position.  

An Election coordinator is sought to assist with nominations before the meeting and the voting process at the meeting.  Contact me if you would like to volunteer to be our coordinator.

Our election meeting returns to Finnon Lake on June 27th.

Newsletter and Newsletter Editor

May is Warren’s last month as Newsletter Editor.  If you have an eye for layout and design, contact Warren to learn more about what he does for the club. We need someone to step into the role of editor starting June.

If you have a project bike you’ve been working on, we’d love to feature it in the newsletter.  Additionally, if you’ve bought a new gadget, write a few lines about it for our newsletter.

Bylaws updates

NorCal is the in the process of updating our bylaws.  Verbiage updates were presented to the members during the Death Valley meeting.  See the proposed updates here:  Bylaws updates.

‘49er

We need everyone’s help publicizing the ‘49er.  I ask that everyone download the high resolution flyer, print three copies, and then post the flyers somewhere people ride.  As a bonus, we’re having a contest for best flyer posting.  Put up your flyer, take a picture with it, and post it to your favorite social media site with the hashtag #norcalbmw49er.  The best post gets a prize at the ‘49er.

Volunteers are the lifeblood of any event.  Volunteer some of your time at the Rally this year.  Fill out the Volunteer form on our webpage.

Triple Crown Anniversary Rally

Ed Perry is putting together a special three peaks ride in June to hit  Mt Hamilton, Tamilpias, and Diablo all in one day.  Ed will have additional details as June approaches.

Digital files

If you have photos or videos from Death Valley, sent them to Ed Perry.
