A few reminders: Clothing store* closes on Sunday*. We will not reopen again until June, so grab your new jersey, or shorts, whatever you need, and go look good in your good looking new kit. The link to the online store is: teamstore.agile-sportswear.com/store/conejo-valley-cyclists/ *Ride Leaders Meeting:* Please come to the meeting if you are a current ride leader, or want to hear more about volunteering in the club in the future. There will be some changes we will go over and we want everyone who is interested to hear. We are really in need of ride leaders of all levels all the time, and truly would appreciate leadership at the gold level where Denise has been stepping in for the last few years! The ride leaders meeting is at 6:00. PLEASE RSVP Wesley Thomas is the company Kent works for and is in the industrial complex in Newbury Park. Here is that address: 2545 W Hillcrest Dr # 205, Newbury Park, CA 91320 (you actually turn on Lawrence to get in) *Also*, if you are interested in serving on the board of directors, we are interested in those who can step up into a leadership role. (I warn you, the pay is not good) but volunteering and giving back to the club that has brought you so much, is the best paycheck! Please come talk to me or email me! Don't forget about the Picnic & Benefit Ride! This is YOUR club ride. This is where we get our funds to donate to others in need and have a blast doing so. We have a great lunch planned with many choices of routes. We will have help from our sponsors along with great silent auction items. Take a look at the website to see past donations! This year we hope to cover bikes for young fire victims who are in need! The more we have, the more we can donate. Even in a wealthy community, there are individuals who face unique challenges. As we share our compassion, we see that there are many lower level income earners, and people that lived in lost apartments, employees of others, house managers, and so many more. The kids of these people are vetted to be sure they are in need. Most of these kids went to Pali High and lost their homes, and their school and the area is doing fundraisers to build a temporary school so the kids are no longer on line from their temporary homes. A bike is the last thing on the family's list, but our mission in CVC is to promote cycling to others. What a perfect time to share.
