Craig,
Are we inviting the host track officials to the CMDR Annual Awards Banquet in February (like Joe, Nancy and Buddy from NED and Jim Hyde, John Sloan and Bob Bower from OPD and our VIP from LVD) ??? As a past board member I feel strongly that this tradition should carry on so that our club members get the opportunity to meet and greet the leadership of the tracks we frequent on a personal basis.

Has the Board had this discussion and approved it so that those invitations go out with some advance notice in their personal schedules? Maybe in the upcoming January monthly meeting on the 31st we can mention a donation from the members to go toward offsetting the $30/plate for the track officials. Just a thought

Swede, I like your thinking. I think we should bring that up at the next meeting. I have spoken to Joe when I was at the PRI Show in Florida and mentioned the banquet to him and he said as long as it didn't conflict with the NED Banquet he would be there.
