Old Business – None New Business – Poker rides are illegal to run now without a license. The state will start selling non-native licenses in the next year or so and need to clear the road. Our poker ride will now be a scavenger hunt. We still need donations for the scavenger hunt and raffle. Audra was contacted about a disabled kids program; they are looking for cowboy clothes for donations so the kids can dress up when they get to ride horses. We can collect the clothes and the region would just have to pay for postage to send the clothes to them. Good of the order – ADJOURN – Debbie makes a motion to adjourn, Audra seconds all approved.
