What’s Happening at USARM lately?

 

The applications for the World Superbike are out and we’re busy working on the race. Laguna Seca is busy with all kinds of improvements that are mostly infrastructure and not racetrack specific. Meanwhile, our board has also been very busy going through some changes.

We shared with you at the last General Membership meeting in 2016 that there were some financial issues left unaddressed by a former board member. It has taken us this long to work through those and determine how to proceed to ensure our club remained healthy. Due to the numerous outstanding issues, the associated costs and with recommendations from our corporate counsel our Board made the decision to create a new corporation. While it was quite a bit of work, it is better for our club to start fresh.

Our new name is not that different. We will be called the USARM GROUP. We had to quickly fill an opening on the board during this transition so the Board elected and assigned Elena Goldfoos who has been a member for about 10 years working primarily with Ted on the paperwork, organization and logistics during the races.

We did not have an election this past year due to all the corporation activities but we will have one at the end of 2018 and will be back on track with the corporate specific requirements. Just rest assured that we are back on track and in good standing again with the State of California and the Franchise Tax Board.

I want to thank all our board for their outstanding support as we worked through all these issues. You have a board whose heart and soul are dedicated to ensuring our club is healthy now and will continue to remain well into our future.

If you have any questions on these changes just let me know. You can drop me an email at – jan@usarm.org or JanKaufman52@gmail.com and I will get back to you ASAP.

See you in June!

Enjoy Livin’
