- -Membership – Tamie Stonke. Brenan would like to discuss adding a lifetime membership to the new website. Discussion with some members over the years that they would prefer to pay for lifetime membership even if it cost them more than a normal renewal. This seems like it would be easy to do with a custom $ value on the new website. Brenan thought for discussion $960 for a standard lifetime at 32 years x $30. It’s probably prudent to discuss raising dues, but so far everything seems to be holding steady. Reminder we did not charge dues for the covid year, even though several people paid it anyway. Discussion,
- -Programs and Volunteers – Nobody volunteered. Consensus to ask Jay, as he has generally had ideas about new or existing programs. Reminder, that a committee leader or member does not need to be a board member. In fact, we encourage help from non board members.

We are close to having the basic event covered. THe green river cleanup committee is trying to do some special things, but we need some volunteer leaders to take things to the next level.
- Old Business
- -Status of safety class planning. Candice:
Lance at Wildwater to teach a swift water rescue April 20-21, but Repo said we need board approval. Cost is $300/person, with Wrrr covering half. Students will get a cert from Sierra Rescue International upon completion. Discussion

- -Increasing dues if needed? It seems we are holding steady and gaining $1,500 or so each year. We have spent down some money on website and other high dollar items. Discuss for any mechanism for raising dues for success of future board.
