Results of 2007 Council Survey. Forty Sierra Council members responded to the survey sent out in the spring of 2007. Thanks to all who took the time to respond.
Regarding where to hold races, 18 voted for a variety of locations and 11 voted for having all races at Northstar. Another 11 respondents stated that they were OK with either scenario. Scheduling of races is underway and more than half of the races are being planned for Northstar with others at different locations. We are planning for nine races instead of the usual eight to make up for the loss of one race this past season.
The responses to the other questions elicited a variety of thoughtful feedback, which the board considered in planning for the 07-08 and the upcoming season. Your thoughts are always welcome. Please contact any board member with suggestions or concerns.
You can find the survey questions at this location anvd the full survey results in this Word file
