- All SCS members and prospects may not purchase raffle tickets. We want as many non-SCS crew to win as possible

VII. Officer's Reports
- Pres – Nothing more to add
- VP – Stated that SCS has been doing great at showing up at events. The more they see us, the more they will support us
- Treasurer – The account has $1200 and some change
- Secretary – Stated that ALL members and prospects will need to help with the BBQ. All should help with the planning, help the day of. Please do not make us have to keep asking. It takes more than just a few people to get things done. Also, plugged the RoadRunner’s happy hour. Lots of great promos to include $1 pizzas, $1 Coors pony drafts. Happy hour ends at 6:30 pm
- Sgt-at-Arms – Went to 702 Alliance and explained that we will support them 100% but that joining them just isn’t for us. Looking at the last week in June to do a BBQ at MotoCafe. This will raise money for our annual events. Is talking with MotoCafe concerning a Chatterbox raffle. The BBQ at Mototcafe would be cost effective as we would only pay for the food that we use. PK will get with the secretary to work on flyers for the Chatterbox raffle/BBQ. Raffle purchasing could be done at MotoCafe and PayPal. Still working out the details. Second event – JDUB talked to PK concerning the daughter of the officer that was killed on duty. All clubs want to do something to help the cause so it is in the works. For now, the treasurer will post on the board info for the account to give donations to help the family.

Britt's doing AWESOME, but she is very lucky to have such a happy, healthy, quiet little girl. I swear Chelsea is the best baby I have ever seen. She was happy the entire time we were there.
