- Dean Carlson: Clarification on IC Rides the amount is $9,950. Rebecca Spencer is working with the International action team so some of these ideas came from this group. We can try this, but if we don’t support this then we want to make a note not to do this in the future. This afternoon, we need to have everything labeled and organized. The Rambler also needs to do the same thing, label everything.
