ALL C4 Members,

The time has arrived when we must say "Thank you for your time and hard work" to some of our club officers.  Therefore we are requesting nominations for the open officer positions. It was decided by the officers to stagger the departure times of club officers to maintain consistency.  The following officers have agreed remain through the end of 2012 serving three years in their current positions, moving forward each position will be held for two years:.

Remaining Officers are:
Matt Hartman, Web master
Bryan Dill, Treasurer

The following positions are open for nomination submission; please submit your nominations by November 18, 2011:

Ride Coordinator 2- Works together with other ride coordinator to schedule rides, assign ride lead/sweeps, and cancel club rides due to weather

*Note:  This position might be asked to serve an additional year in order to split the President/Vice President election schedule.
