Three bills: Flathead Publishing $49.44 for sprint cart ad, Postmaster $68 for PO Box, and Tracy has bill from Danny for the cart board. Wade motioned to pay the bills. Lisa seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

Have the $3000 in the checking for the purse in Calgary. Brad motioned to withdraw the purse money. Lisa seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

Have not heard back from any of the cars at Penticton, whether they are traveling to Calgary. Chuck Minor, from Moses Lake, has contacted Tracy about running at MVS if his car is done. Have 9 cars going to Calgary for sure, need a driver for the 6 car.

Discussion was held about the possibility of getting a grant through tourism by promoting the Friendship Trail. Look into this more for next year. Tracy wants everyone to think about possibly going to Wenatchee.

Good Old Days parade is Saturday in St Ignatius if any cars can make it: possibly Chuck, Wade and Tracy.

Tires: Jarred ruined 2 tires and also wants to purchase the one available for Calgary. Chuck also ruined one. It is stated that to be allowed to purchase more than the allowed one tire per race, you must show that they were ruined; which Jarred and Chuck have done. Wade motioned to allow Jarred to buy 2 replacements and Chuck to be allowed one. Tim seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

Dan had gotten two tires and was okayed to pay in Penticton. He didn’t make it to that race but would like to make it to Calgary and wants to pay after that race if ok. He hasn’t mounted them yet. It was restated that approval is decided on a case-by-case basis. Wade motioned to allow Dan to pay after the Calgary race. Tim seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

Will try and get a list together for the border crossing with vehicles traveling and approximate times.

Radio Ads: Dennis said that he will give a deal on the ads. Ads will start on Sunday after their races and continue until our race on Saturday. The price would be $150 for 300 ads; this price is 2 for 1 for a non-profit organization. It was discussed that could sell ads similar to the cart ads. Tracy will work with the radio station to come up with an ad. It will list all of the drivers. Tracy will record a burn-out with his road runner for sound on ads. It was agreed that our ads need to be distinctively different from MVS ads.

Championship night: Will not run the August 27th race as the championship, will wait until September race to decide.

September 17th Race: Anyone wanting to race with BSPRA must be approved for the one race permit and teched at least 2 weeks before the race. They must be approved, but the membership fee is waived for this one race. They are not allowed to show up that night and expect to race without being approved beforehand.

Walter will send the video camera. Kale said that she could run one. Will need a couple of people to hand out brochures at the front and pit gates.

Fred Matt wants to be at the August race. It was agreed that he will be the honorary started for the main event.

Witte’s from Euphrata, have talked to Tracy about traveling there 2 times next year. Chuck Minor, Moses Lake, has many people interested and he is building 1-2 cars.

Need to remember during after race teching that the scales show a ¼ inch difference on the ride height. Will either need to measure on the ground, or RJ will try and get some ¼ inch plywood to add under the pad.

Next meeting will be August 4th, 7 p.m. at Plum Creek.
Lisa motioned to adjourn at 8:30. Tim seconded. Meeting adjourned.
