Mike, can we get the title for the truck to Bill, Jessica will check for the title.
Do we have a budget for 2022, Jessica to send out again.
Grant money for TNiA is up in the air, may not be available this year.
REGIONAL BANQUET: (Lisa Kern, Mike McGinley)
Lisa presented the possible dates for the regional banquet. It was agreed that the date should strive to not interfere with a race weekend, solo, RX or road. Two dates were agreed upon with March 5th as our primary option and April 8th the backup. Lisa will follow up with Justin to see if he is still available to MC and that Deer Creek available. An update will be coming soon as time is short for the 5th.

We have dates confirmed with MCC for the following schedule which can be posted to the website and incorporated into Checkpoint anytime.
