The Century Club meeting was held on Saturday, June 16, 2001, at the Bingley Building, Marion County Fairgrounds. It has been determined that management will continue to be involved in the Century Club meetings. Points were reviewed and members were assigned to help those with low points. Kermit Bowers will help Gary Moughler; Ron Shifflett will help Ken Nelson; and Mike Knaak will help Dick Seymour. They will report back as to their progress at the next Century Club meeting.
	Beginning July 15, 2001, the speed of the trucks will be determined as follows: At the time of a full service, if the fuel mileage is less than 6.4 m.p.g. on the Road Relay, the truck speed will be set at 65 m.p.h. If the fuel mileage is 6.4 m.p.g. or higher, the truck speed will be set at 70 m.p.h. Any truck with a fuel mileage of less than 6.0 m.p.g. on the June report will be turned down to 65 m.p.h. until the unit is due for its next full service and the fuel mileage is above 6.4 m.p.g. All readings will be off the Road Relay. If the Road Relay is broken, then it will be replaced. John and the shop will be trying to get these things fixed right away. Pete Fortner, Regional Transportation Manager with Ford, will be the guest speaker at the August Century Club meeting. Please forward any questions you would like to ask to either Steve Taggart or Steve Letien. There is now a red Brooks drop box for all your paperwork at the Kansas City lot. Paperwork will be picked up from this location twice daily, 5 a.m. and 5 p.m. This should help in getting paperwork in the office within five days of delivery. You can also still use TripPak. There was some discussion regarding changing the current payroll system to be based on either a 12 week average, 4 week average, or weekly. We will have more discussion on this subject. In the future we will not block any weeks out for miles. The Family Picnic/Truck Rodeo will be held next month on Saturday, July 14, 2001. This is the last weekend of Ford shutdown. If you are planning to attend or would like to participate in the competition, please let Tracy in Safety know how many people you will be bringing as soon as possible . We discussed the plans that Ford has for shutdown. They are expecting to be down for two weeks only and then come right back up to full production without delay. Ford has a goal to have 700 loads be live unload and live load by the end of the year. This will affect the Montezuma/Victor loads. Note that Ford has a sign posted at the guard shack saying no trucks are allowed in from 4 a.m. to 6 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. This is to eliminate drivers from arriving too early for the appointment times. It is Steve Taggart’s understanding that if your appointment time is between those hours you will be allowed in the lot. Steve will verify this with Ford and let us know. We hope to see everyone at the Mike Brooks, Inc. Truck Rodeo and Family Fun Day Saturday, July 14! The next Century Club meeting will be held on Saturday, August 18, 2001, at the Bingley Building, Marion County Fairgrounds. Don’t forget you can call in if you can’t attend! There is no limit as to the number of people that can call and we have a new phone so callers can hear better. To participate, call 1-800-928-6113. At the prompt, enter the password of 866326. Special thanks go to the Operations and Accounting Departments who have done the cooking for the last two meetings. These folks have done a great job and we appreciate it!
