CAPITOL VOLKSSPORT MEETING MINUTES

The meeting was called to order by Susan at 7:05 pm. There were
Twenty two members present. We welcomed guest Eloise Hill. 
Roberta announced that she will be retiring in June.

The minutes were approved as written and the treasurer’s report
Was passed around. The YRE’s are currently all losing money but
This is because we just paid the annual fees on them.

OLD BUSINESS

Jim has the second 10 K. mapped out for Trail Days on June 5th
And 6th. The flyers are complete. There will be a worker’s walk
And Jim will send the information on it by email. Jeanne suggested
We also send out a schedule for people who signed up to work.

Fred, from mended hearts, has certificates for people who complete
A walk. Fred also designed a new logo for our club but it was not 
Approved. Our original logo has not changed. Lesley made a motion
That we can have a P.R. logo, which is not our official logo, as
When we put extra text around our logo for promotional events such 
As Run like a Dog. Bob seconded it and all agreed.

The July 24th walk in conjunction with Senior Games is in the 
Pathfinder. We may use the South Tumwater walk because the
Senior run is only up and down Capitol Boulevard. We will have
More information soon. The Senior Games is giving T. shirts to
Everyone who finishes a walk.

There will be a walk on Thursday August 19th in conjunction with
Two other clubs. It will be a Burfoot Park and it will start at 3 pm
And finish by 9 pm. The flyers are complete but the walk hasn’t 
Been totally mapped out yet.

The Friday morning walks are usually at a different location than
The meeting place to carpool. The meeting time to carpool is
9 am. and the start time for the walks is 10 am. at the actual 
Starting point. Kathy was doing the Friday morning walks but she
Is moving soon. If anyone is interested in taking them over please
Let Susan know. Linda P. and Sheila will help out. Perki would
Like to have information on the July walks as soon as possible.

Jeanne is in charge of the Wednesday/Thursday night walks.
They will all start at 6 pm in the foreseeable future.

NEW BUSINESS

Bonnie was unable to attend the last ESVA meeting.

We need someone to be our new Vice President next year as Sue
Will be our new President because Susan is stepping down. If
You are interested, or if you would like information about it, 
Please talk to Susan or Sue. We can even have two people
Divide up the work and be co-vice presidents.

Perki is our new publicity person and she recently placed an
Article in the Senior News. She also put us in the Olympian
Under recreation. Four walks were listed last week. The amount
Of information they will list varies depending on space available.
Perki is also putting information up at the hospital fitness center
And on the general bulletin board at St. Peters. If you have a shirt
Or jacket with our logo it is suggested that you wear it on our walks.

Peter has been working on our website and he brought his laptop
To the meeting. Peter has done an excellent job on the website.
Virginia made a motion that we post the new website and if there
Are any problems we can deal with them at that time. It was
Seconded and approved.

Seabreeze will be on the 19th, 20th and 21st February of 2011. This
Is President’s Day weekend. Sue reserved the Lion’s Club hall for
Three days. The deposit is $100 and the total cost is $75 per day.
Sue made a motion that we send the $100 to the Lion’s Club and
Perki seconded it, all agreed. Laura amended the motion that we 
Pay $225 for three days. Peter seconded it and all agreed.
Because we will be hosting the ESVA meeting next year we decided
To have it at the same time as Seabreeze. Since we will receive $200
For hosting the ESVA meeting the cost for the Lion’s Club will be
Minimal for us.

Sue said that the six walks for Seabreeze need to be modified. Sue
Goes to Ocean Shores on the first of every month so if anyone 
Would like to go with her they are very welcome. Damion Point
Is fast disappearing so we won’t have that walk. Jeanne and Sue
Are thinking of adding walks at Copalis Beach and Moclips. They
Also want to make the 18K. into a 20 K. The bike route will be kept.

Sue passed around a list for people to sign up for T shirts, or sweat
Shirts, hats etc. Several people signed up.

There was some talk about having another train trip this fall.
