HALSEY TRAILS CLUB
Meeting was called to order by Chuck McCarty, March 10, 2007, at Nebraska Machinery, in North Platte, with 31 members present. Old business discussed was the Grand Island Meeting. Talked about sustainable trails that do not disrupt the natural environment. We will need to have a plan for trails by 2009. Officers were introduced.
Minutes were read and approved as read. LaRae Trembly made a motion to accept minutes Finances were discussed. We did not apply for a grant, because we did not have the time to write the grant at present time. Rodney (Vice President) did work with Dan, and Nohva put in for a grant, which includes $1,000 for Halsey trails. Trail maintenance, won't know what we really need to do until the snow is gone and we get back up there to make an inspection.
New business, filled out forms with names, address, phone and e-mails, and where they would like to ride. Also encouraged all who are not Nohva members to join so they can receive information about trails and so forth. Nohva is our parent organization, and do the political work and get grants and insurance and so forth. It was decided that we should be called a club rather than a chapter, like if we would apply for a grant, it might raise a flag, if we apply as a chapter. Dan Nitzel is director, and does allot of work for. Nohva. Halsey Trails officers, must attend annual Nohva meeting.
