Bike the night update
Kathryn talked to Tracy Wilkins at HUB. Planning is extraordinary in terms of time and resources. Grants are needed and available. We have access to some of their previous proposals, budgets, etc. She offered to talk to the board about diverting some funding etc. Simon suggested a scaled-down version that just runs a lap around Lafarge Lake. Scott suggested using the new trails down to Riverview. Nikki suggested a loop purely in Coquitlam but incorporating Guildford and Lafarge Lake. Committee discussed pros and cons of running event earlier in the year (less rain, but less darkness too). Andrew and Jack will discuss with Canisius Chan. A HUB board meeting is coming up on November the 13th and Tracy W. is willing to relay our interest there.
