Board of Directors

PAA is served by a Board of Directors who serve a two-year term and are elected by a vote of the membership at the November meeting for the following calendar year. In addition to duties assigned by the bylaws, Board members also serve other duties within the Club.

Eddie Ramirez, President

Eddie Ramirez Eddie has been involved with PAA for about 10 years in various capacities, starting with the creation of a development program upon joining PAA. While serving as the Cat 4/5 Team Captain, he joined the PAA Board of Directors, where he quickly took on the role as clothing coordinator for many years. While in this role, he decided to step it up a notch and run for vice president. In 2009, he decided to take time off from PAA leadership and focused on riding and racing… mainly his mountain bike, thanks to the influence of Captain the Great Nor Oropez! The year of 2010 brought Eddie back to leadership—this time as the president of PAA. Eddie has also committed his service to the club for 2011 and 2012.
