Lake Grapevine Runners and Walkers February 2016 Dear Lake Grapevine Racing season is coming into full swing again with Cowtown Marathon, Half Marathon, and Ultra, as well as Haltom Stampede 5K coming up this month. And don't forget Grasslands Trail Run coming up in March. You may notice some changes around the clubhouse. There is some new gravel out front. Thanks to Jeff "Barney" Barnhart, Joe Luccioni, and Gary Howsam. Barney also laid down some interlocking flooring in the restroom to make it a bit easier to keep clean and provide a surface nicer than the concrete. The board of directors is considering the installation of the same flooring in the entire clubhouse. If you have feedback, please contact a board member. At the recommendation of the Bylaws Committee, the board has decided to streamline the membership process. Starting in 2017, we will be moving to having all memberships renew in January. This will make it unnecessary to keep track of your renewal date, as everyone's membership will expire on January 31. Details on the transition to the new process are below. Thank you to the members of the Bylaws Committee for their work in making this change. If you have a son or daughter graduating in 2016 and who has participated in track or cross country, be sure to encourage them to apply for the LGRAW College Scholarship. The deadline is March 1, so don't delay! See you at the lake! Chris Morris LGRAW President Please note that your LGRAW membership expires on LGRAW
New Membership Policy We're trying to make your LGRAW membership renewal process easier. Starting in 2017, all memberships will expire on January 31. There won't be a need to remember when your membership expires. We'll let everyone know at the same time that they need to renew in the month of January to avoid interruption in their membership. To transition to the new process for membership renewals, those people whose membership renews from January thru April will be charged the full membership price in 2016 ($20 individual or $30 family), and their membership will expire on January 31, 2017. Those who renew May thru October will be charged half price ($10 individual or $15 family), and their membership will also expire on January 31, 2017. Memberships that renew in November or December will be charged for a full year, but their membership won't expire until January 31, 2018. We will also transition the process for new LGRAW members. Those who join the club January thru June will pay the full membership price and then renew in January of the next year. Anyone who joins in July thru December will pay the full price and be paid until January of the following year. For example, a new membership initiated in May 2016 will expire in January 2017, and a new membership initiated in October 2016 will expire in January 2018. We will do our best to avoid confusion during this transition by communicating the change as memberships expire. Please watch your email and submit any questions to membership@lgraw.com.
