Meeting Minutes:
GPAX held its first officer's meeting last weekend with great success! The meeting of 6 minds proved to be an excellent forum for ideas and action to be taken to make GPAX was the very greatest off-road clubs in the country. We now have a website being built, finances in order, philanthropy in the works and a network to plan and run events smoothly.

ECXC 2010:
For the third year in a row, GPAX will have a team in the 2010 ECXC Winch Challenge. David Parrish and Bobby Quesnel will be driving and Stephen Q. Breslin and Eric Romeo will be spotting. The ECXC challenge team is sponsored by PRG Products this year! So, thanks to Greg from PRG!

Merchandise:
Summer t-shirts will be available in only a few weeks and available at ECXC 2010! I expect the cost to be $15 a piece and they will be available in two colors and all sizes. Until then, I still have a few stickers left, both 8" and 12" sizes, all in white.

Kudos:
A big thank you to the GPAX members who made the trek out to GONE Moab. Thanks to Dave, Ben and Bryan for driving all the way from the east coast and John "Creek" for his hospitality in Colorado. I encourage all GPAX members to start thinking about attending GONE Moab 2011 now so we can get a huge east coast crew in Utah next May.

Go GPAX!
