Leslie – financials
roughly flat for 2017
more race expenses, but more membership $$ make up for it
surprised that we were this close to a balanced year.
Banquet
Homestead harder to work with this year, but Deb is figuring it out.  Banquet will be on Sunday Jan 28.
Awards
Mugs for TS – decided.  Deb will manage this.
Volunteers – Pint Glasses.  Deb will order, and we will decide later what to put inside them…$10 Amazon or Target cert?
RDs – want to try backpacks
What about…Orange Mud towels?
Leslie will check with Orange Mud to see if we could get a big discount.
