ECCC Fall Planning Meeting 2009 Invite

Hosted by Stevens Institute of Technology:

What?

The ECCC has a lot going on---four seasons, over twenty weekends of racing, and more than a thousand racers currently make up the conference. Key to organizing all of that is the annual ECCC Planning Meeting. At the meeting, all teams get together to discuss the state of the conference, vote on rules changes, and schedule upcoming seasons.

This year, the ECCC will be holding its traditional Fall Planning Meeting on Saturday, November 14th. The Winter Planning Meeting will also be held in February, 2010. The imminent Fall Meeting will focus on general topics and the road season, including rules changes and the spring schedule, with some discussion on cyclocross on the mountain biking. The Winter Meeting will focus on cyclocross, track, and MTB.

In addition, the Fall Meeting will once again include an interactive Team Building Workshop, lead by members of the conference but with a completely new format this year. The 2009 edition of the very successful workshop will focus on guidance for new teams and club officers.

Who

All teams should have a representative at the fall meeting, particularly those that participate in the road season. Representatives from schools looking to start new teams are also more than welcome to attend. All promoting teams *must* have a representative in attendance and prepared to present their race proposal. Details of that process will follow shortly.
