A Teams link will be sent out to all members via email. We will be discussing Board nominations. All members are welcome to join the meeting.

Members, put on your bowling shoes and join us at Sky Ute Casino for an afternoon of bowling. No experience necessary. Just bring smiles. Time to be determined.

Please join us at our regular membership meeting. We will be voting on whether to implement a complete overhaul of our current bylaws. These proposed bylaws are intended to be more aligned with modern social activity by conducting the business aspect virtually. This will allow our Board of Directors to focus on planning events rather than attending meetings.

This meeting is open to the public. If you can’t attend in person, but want to learn about the club, you can join virtually by clicking on one of the links below.

Your comments, questions, and/or suggestions for the proposed bylaws revision will be reviewed at the board meeting rescheduled for Wednesday, January 22, at 6:30 p.m. at the San Juan Public Lands Office, in Durango.  We hope to have a working copy of bylaws to bring to the February meeting to be voted on and adopted as the CJG new bylaws.

The Board has been hard at work behind the scenes revising our bylaws. Look for a draft of the proposed bylaws in your email soon. We encourage member feedback before we present our final draft for approval at the February meeting.

3rd Saturday OR any day of week OR weekend Fun Run – Need trail and volunteer leader.

Need a volunteer Organizer/Leader. Leader can contact David Latham at the VFW in Durango (cmd@vfw4031.org) to find out the details on parade lineup, time, etc. Parade is on a Monday this year, and is usually in the afternoon.

A great opportunity to learn and brush up on skills. Pack a lunch.

Meet at Dollar General in Aztec at 9:00 am, leave at 9:30 am. Kevin H. is planning on meeting anyone who wants to caravan from Durango at the Maverik at 8:30 am.

This is an old competition area, possibly a WeRock event. It can be as easy or as hard as you want to make it. The main trail is a dirt road, then there are obstacles everywhere off the road. It is good for everyone, as you can learn what your rig can do (and you) or just go and watch. The hardest stuff is strictly for buggies. From the very back of the play area, it only takes 10-15 minutes to exit and be back on the highway. It is located on the road between Aztec and Navajo Dam and is closer to Navajo Dam.

Thank you to Lee Hagar for organizing this event.

We are looking for RSVP(s) to be a driver for this event

• Need to know how many seats you will have available for the participants.

• This will let us know how many participants can participate.  As of right now Adaptive Sports has 12 participants that would like to attend. Of course the number of participants will depend on our participation.

The plan as of right now is to drive up Lime Creek Rd to the meadow, have lunch & return. The Adaptive Sports participants will meet at the ASA building at Purgatory.

Karin Freeman, leader. Meet at 9:00 am at the Junction Restaurant parking lot (401 E Pagosa St; it's the last building on the right of Hwy 160 just before the Hwy 84 junction). Gas available next to the restaurant, or across the highway. Meet at 9:00 am for a 9:30 am departure to head to the East Fork Campground staging area to air-down. Feel free to camp at the campground or up the East Fork Road (dispersed camping) prior to the run. If you do, meet us at the staging area at 9:45am or watch for us to pass your campsite around 10:00 - 10:15am. We will be trying to trim back brush to prevent pinstriping, fixing some of our picnic tables, and looking for mudholes and other areas that may need work

Meet at PJ’s Gourmet Market at Trimble Crossing, north ofDurango (67 Trimble Ln, off Hwy 550) at 9:00 am for a 9:30 am departure. If you miss the group departure, proceed to the cleanup location on Hwy 550 just before Molas Pass. Our section of highway begins past Mile Marker (MM) 61, where the two lanes climbing uphill merge into one. The club typically parks at a forested turnoff on the left (north) side of the highway at approximately MM 62.5.

After the clean up:

Ed Rosenthal and Rick Hagar would like to invite everyone to join them on the Lime Creek road. Will travel from North to South with a stop perhaps at the campground or pond at Spud Lake trailhead.

Mariah Klingler will also be going over to Picayune/Pacer over into California Pass.
