At our first rally we all met after breakfast on Saturday morning 21 June 2003 and discussed our future and what we needed to function as a "Fun Club".  What was decided was that we needed as little structure as possible.  Our policies will be primarily based upon how the Northeast Trek club operates with some modifications.  Our current policies are as follows:

The Southwest Trek Fun Club was officially started 21 June 2003 on a grassy field in Happy Jack, Arizona.  This was our first meeting, but for several months prior, Liana and Wayne Kinne and Pat and Jim Ward were all busy planning the first rally and getting everything coordinated.

The Fun Club exists for the common interest and knowledge sharing of Trek owners.

We have no official standing or affiliation with any other club.

	We are not a part of Safari International.
	We have no by-laws and we have NO officers.  We did vote that Wayne and Liana Kinne should remain as our primary coordinators, at least until we burn them out and they quit.

We have no affiliation with TREKTracks, although we all use and enjoy it on a daily basis.

Our rallies are hosted by volunteers and are decided upon by our members.

We currently do not invite vendors to our rallies, but do not rule out this possibility in the future.

There are no rules or guide lines on what activities should be held or what meals should be held.

Our membership is made up of people from all over the West.  At our recent Happy Jack Rally we had coaches from AZ, CA, NM, NV, UT, and TX.  Our database of interested Trek owners includes these states as well as many others.  Based upon this diversity it was decided that we would not restrict our membership to any group of specific states.  Our policy will be "If you own a Trek, then you are welcome to be a part of this Fun Club."

Our initial membership fee has been set at $5.00.

It is our intent to have at least two rallies per year and, dependent upon the wishes of the membership, may have more.
