From our first meeting:
 
We held our first meeting of the year September 10th, 2014. We will follow up with better "minutes" later but here is a quick summary:
1. Election of officers: Pres-Nate Swiston; VP-Cory Smith; Secretary/Treasurer-Mary Ross; ...Director of trail operations; Dave (Butch) Warren.
2. Discussion of date for annual Fun (poker) Run; sounds like we are leaning to Saturday, February 7th which is the week after the Super Bowl.
3. Discussion of 2 large trail #13 re-routes in process. Will be completed prior to December.
4. New sign posts going up on trail through the City of Washburn.
5. We need ideas for Washburn Homecoming 2015; float and fundraising.
6. New Trail Passes in 2015...read more click here...
Another addition is a potential Trail Work Weekend of October 11th and 12th which the weekend after AppleFest...not much time after that!!!  I think that's about it other than another good meal at the Valhalla View Pub & Grub.
