We need to start raising funds to do a color flier, pay for the web site, offer prizes for our logo contest, tec. etc.

We have talked about soliciting contributions from bike shops, running shops, etc. So far we are operating on gifts from the founders...

We will add links to our web site and small ads to the brochure in return for donations and for contributions of gift certificates or discount certificates.

Maybe some shops would offer a discount for card carrying FROGOT members?

Terry has volunteered to contact some bike shops. Anyone else want to help work on this?

Also, what would be a reasonable membership fee, and when should renewals be due? I suggest we have a single annual renewal date of maybe march 31, so the treasurere can send out renewal notices and solicit renewals once a year. As people join, their dues would pay them through the end of hte current year. I Fthey join in jan-feb-mar they would be paid through the next year.

A spring is near renewall date might be good, as we will be refocusing on trails at that time.

What do you think?


Jim
