Tonight: Seattle Bike Master Plan update and last chance to vote

Today is the last day to vote in the Club election, and tonight is the Annual Membership Meeting with a special presentation on the Seattle Bike Master Plan. CLUB ELECTION 

• Maggie Sue Anderson
• Brent Hadley
• Steinar Hjelle
• Joe Platzner

Each Club member may vote for up to two candidates. Two proposed bylaws revisions are also up for your consideration. How to vote: Paper ballots can dropped at the office by 5 p.m. today, returned by mail with a postmark of Oct. 9, or submitted at tonight’s Annual Membership Meeting. Current members in good standing should have received an email with a link to their e-ballot. Look for an email message dated Friday, Oct. 5 from Chuck Ayers with  a subject line “Less than a week to vote!” Please don't try to vote more than once, because that will invalidate your ballot. If you have any difficulties at all, please contact us at (206) 522-3222 or at via email. TONIGHT! Annual Membership Meeting at the South Lake Union Discovery Center

GETTING THERE:

The South Lake Union Discovery Center is located at 101 Westlake Avenue North, on the corner of Denny Way and Westlake Ave.By bike: uncovered bike racks will be set up outside. Bring your own lock to secure your bike. By transit: use Metro’s trip planner to find a nearby transit route. By car: the Center has a very limited fee parking. Street parking is available along with several area parking garages.

6 p.m: Meet and greet board candidates. This is your last chance to cast your ballot for board of directors candidates and proposed bylaws changes. 6:30 p.m: "State of the club" address given by Cascade Staff and Board. 7:15 p.m: Seattle Bike Master Plan presentation by SDOT. The first Bike Master Plan positioned the city on the road to being more bike-friendly, and we want the next version to launch Seattle toward becoming a truly world-class city for bicycling. Cascade members can make a difference! The meeting is scheduled to end at 8 p.m. If the discussion with SDOT is going strong, however, we are open to staying later and ending no later than 9 p.m.
