Old Business:  Third Thursday re-vamp – as a whole the event was losing money. No longer hosted by BEB, just supported. Yellow signs still provided at no cost. They seemed to work better than newspaper ads anyway. Now the event is just low maintenance. Do it if you like – don’t if you don’t!

 New Business:  Please join or donate to Pelatonia Team Bexley – they are second only to Team Stephanie (Stephanie Spielman Foundation). Bill Shaw of Market Mortgage volunteered to ride. First fundraising event this Saturday, Mar 31. at Drexel Theatre. Pelatonia is August 10. Rides are between 25 and 180 miles.

Misc.: BEB President, Marlene Miller will be in Spain for the next two meetings. Vice President, Helen Rica
