Evan replied that since we have no paid employees, make no profit, and distribute no dividends, we are not jeopardizing our status. George pointed out that our status is a recreational organization, and if we get more money from ads than entries, then maybe there could be a problem. It is not expected that ads will generate that kind of revenue. There was a motion to accept the rates as presented. Discussion included a question from Marsha about inappropriate advertisements.
Advertisements are out.
Tony has fliers for REI, etc for recreational entries. Fliers are also available for members to post, distribute, etc. Runners Schedule has ad, and the Mercury News will run an ad. All streamers are out and field checking is starting. Thorsten and Dennis Wildfogel will be vetting advanced courses.
