Guy called the
meeting to order at 7:10. Also in attendance
were Tracy, Courtney, Lisa, Lynn, Butch and
Duane.
Minutes of last
meeting and Financial Report were read and
approved.
Bill was
presented by Duane for $100 for repair and
freight on the scale controller. It was voted
to pay the bill.
Tracy
reported on contacts he has made for selling
the pre-sold tickets to the Sprint Karts
races. The Polson baseball group thought it
would be great to do, but have already
committed to selling candy, but for the
All-Star game at the end of the season, they
may try it to raise money for new uniforms.
Other organizations have expressed interest,
but we have not received a firm commitment
from them yet.
Duane reported
that the Plains fairgrounds manager will get
back to him early next week, and that they
may be getting a new system. If so, the
system they are using now may be available
quite reasonable.
The manager of
Spokane Raceway Park informed Tracy that a
September 15th date would probably
work fine. Details will be worked out soon.
Mission Valley
Auto Racers wants the board of Big Sky Pro
Racing Assn to come to their meeting next
Wednesday to discuss the rules for the
Montana Limited Late Model Series races. The
signed agreement we have with them states
that we have the responsibility for rules,
officiating, and promoting. If MVAR is not
willing to abide by this agreement, we are of
a consensus that there will be no MLLS.
The rules for
the MLLS were proof-read and corrections were
made. Lisa will get the final draft made, and
about 20 copies will be printed. All drivers
who apply to race and are accepted will be
given a set of rules. One set will also be
given to
MVAR’s
representative so he can inform any
and all of their interested racers as to the
criteria of the race.
Butch has names
of three possible people who may have small
square bales that we can get for the Sprint
Kart race. He will check into this and report
back at a later meeting.
Guy reminded
everyone that now is a good time to pay your
dues.
The meeting was
adjourned at 8:45.
