Directors Report
The Annual AWSC convention is going to be held at the Abbey in Fontana WI on the weekend of March 20-22^nd.     

Trail and Grooming Report
The Berlin River Riders did open the Mascoutin trail for a couple of days to allow people better access onto the lakes in the area.  All other trails in the county have been closed the entire season.  There was a landowner concern of a trail crossing near an empty lot that was scheduled for excavation.   This was up by Shady Lane on Oakwood road.  The Drifters are aware of the situation. 

Old Business
Reminder that everyone should have received their first reimbursement checks for bills submitted for trail prep and marking.  Please cash these checks once they are received. 

New Business
Kim Delcore from the parks department will be leaving her position and taking a new job in the Sheriffs office.  The Parks Dept does not yet have a replacement for her.  Kim is recommending that clubs wait until April to submit their final billing for the season in the hopes that a replacement can be hired by that time. 

Nominations for Club Officers
Scott Johnson nominated Teri Johnson for treasurer and Teri accepted the nomination.

Jim Kumbier made it clear that he will not be running for any positions on the board for next year, which leaves the President spot open.   

Jason Ollanketo mentioned that he would be willing to run for President, but only if the Secretary position could be filled.  Jason would also be willing to continue as Secretary but would not do both positions.   

No other nominations were made.

All clubs in the county are asked to consider having officers run for positions.  The Winnebago Alliance speaks for the interests of all the clubs in the county and it would be nice to have representation from more of the clubs on the board. 

7:48 PM, motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded – unanimously approved. 

The next meeting will be held on Mar 24^th at 7:30 PM at the Oshkosh Lanes. 

Clubs Attending:  Sno-Scats, Wolff’s Pack, Wolfrunners, Omro Driftbusters, Sno-Pioneers, Drifters,  Cruising Paths,  Drifters, Berlin River Riders, Waukau, Poyganaires,
