SOLO REPORT: (Al Hermans)
The Test & Tune (T&T) and Event #1 was held this past weekend. T&T had approximately 40 people attend. Event #1 had 100 entries. Both days started off chilly but warmed up to the mid 50’s in the afternoon. Results are waiting to be posted on the website.
Sanction requests for the remaining schedule are waiting on the national office to process.
The host region agreement for the Starting Line school on July 16 has been submitted to national for sanctioning.
We need to order some new cones. Every cone was used on Sunday with only 1 or 2 extras for the corner stations. We have been looking for potential vendors.
We need event chairs for the upcoming (April 30 & May 1) school and Event #2.
RALLYCROSS REPORT: (Greg Cheney)
No report for RX this month. Event on April 10th at Grin Valley – worried on weathered. Next events are May 15th and June 26th.
Mike: Be sure to add Lisa, Nils who are not on the BoD email list.
KVRG REPORT: (Chris Kern)
Very good CFR school at Ozark, lot of people were there and had fun and learned jobs. Lot of instructors showed and the local fire department was happy with what happened. Track principal was smiling at the turnout as well.
Heartland Park coming up, we will send work to Ozark the same weekend to make sure they do not think we are abandoning them. Registration is open for both events (Ozark and Heartland) and working on the details. TT registration is open as well. Will be needing workers for these events. Need sign ups early for events.
Looking to have a great race for June at Ozark, will want to survey drivers for the race weekend. Then we need to see how to proceed as we go forward with the use of this track.

Chuck Austin requested the electric car emergency guide for track days and racing to our region web page. There was a problem with the platform software for the website but it is up now. Waiting to hear if we need to change or update site to prevent this from happening again.
Facebook policies. We are now a private group and cannot open back to public without creating a new group. We cannot let them even see current events. Jessica will be seeing if upcoming events can go to the organization page.
OLD BUSINESS
None.
NEW BUSINESS:
- Safety deposit box for regional documents, van and trailer titles etc. Jessica will setup a box with Commerce which is where we have our accounts.
