2014 KCA Budget

February 6, 2014

We would like to thank Bill Keen and The Keen Wealth Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors for their ongoing support of the KCA. In 2013 his donation of $1,000, with a KCA match resulted in Junior entry fee’s being limited to $5 which will continue into 2014.

The KCA and Mr. Keen are discussing how to use his 2014 donation of $1,000. If any KCA members have suggestions on possible uses please contact me at dromisch@gmail.com

JUNIOR ENTRY FEES SUBSIDIZED BY KEEN WEALTH MANAGEMENT GROUP OF WELLS FARGO ADVISORS AND KCA

August 11, 2013

The KCA is pleased to announce the 2013 $1,000 donation from the Keen Wealth Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors has been matched with $1,000 from the KCA to promote junior racing.  For 2013 Cyclocross and 2014 Road Races, the KCA will subsidize race promoters who are members in good standing of the KCA, per the KCA Bylaws, $5.00 per junior entry in a junior (not category) race.  The payment will be made by the KCA within thirty days of the KCA Treasurer’s receipt of the number of junior entries in the race via either the Chief Referee Report or official results.  The KCA Board recognizes that, per USA Cycling, race entry fees are set in a free market at the discretion of the organizer.  However, it is the KCA Board’s hope that promoting clubs and race directors, in order to promote junior racing, will charge junior entry fees of $5.00 which will be paid by the racer.  The $5.00 paid by the KCA will result in an actual entry fee of $10.00. Further, per the KCA surcharge policy, the $1.00 surcharge is not assessed on entries with a fee of $10.00 or less.   Official race fliers will include a statement that junior entry fees are sponsored by the Keen Wealth Management Group of Wells Fargo Advisors and the KCA.

__________________________________________________________________________

KCA Year to 8.31.13 Financial Statement is here.  Note that a portion of the surcharge income is from 2012 races and the official’s payments are incentives for 2012.  The supplies expense is primarily two new laptops, related software for registration and results system and repairs to printing stop watches.  The medals expense is for KBAR and KBCXR for four years (cost effective to bulk purchase).  Questions regarding the financial statement should be sent to David Romisch, KCA Treasurer,dromisch@gmail.com.
