Due to the January Membership Meeting followed by the Comp Board Meeting falling on Wednesday, January 1, 2020, there will be no meeting in January. The next Membership and Comp Board Meetings will be on Wednesday, February 5, 2020.
On the back cover of the "Oakland County Sportsman" publication, on the calendar, it says we have a Membership Meeting on January 8. WE DO NOT.

YOUR OPINION MATTERS
As the new DOR, I am here for the Drivers, Chiefs, and Stewards. If you have an idea, a concern, or would like to offer a solution instead of a complaint, I am here 24/7. Call, text, FB Message or Email me.
FEEDBACK OF THE MONTH
Every month in this Newsletter, I plan to propose an idea and would like to hear feedback about it from you.
Would the drivers like to see an "Express Tech" available from 4pm to 7:30pm on Fridays in the Press Room when you register for the weekend? Those having a current approved 2020 helmet sticker and logbook showing annual tech, you can get your Tech Sticker for the weekend. Share your thoughts on our FB page or on the Website Forum page.
