Newspaper
Sharp has not received any submissions other than Patty's. $20 gets you a business card space for a year. There will possibly be a classified section at $4/4 lines. The paper will include calendars, NCOM reports, and contacts for different chapters, including the coordinators. He plans on putting out the paper quarterly. Accessory Pit, KC Tanks, and Jenks Cafe have expressed interest in advertising. Contact Sharprrr@yahoo.com.

New Business
COC/NCOM
Barb, Patty, CJ and Big D attended the meeting in Phoenix. It was reported that in Europe they cannot change emissions and in some countries it is illegal to be a patch holder. They discussed how European law will affect us in the U.S. Patty had a good time and didn't embarrass anyone.
Calendar
Discussion involving the calendar included a greater focus on riding. Events to be considered were: a) Have our own bike night out; in the summer ride to different establishments that support us; b) Suggestion of a run for a college fund for Audra's child; c) Suggestion of a ride out to Moriarty Motocross track for their Memorial Race Day. There is also a band that has volunteered to play at our functions. Listen to them at www.ordinaryguise.com.
Legislative News
This year will be a money session so it is undetermined whether there will be motorcycle issues.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Ride free, ride safe, ride warm!
The meeting was adjourned at 11:45 a.m.
