You are correct. I don't know the current board as I lost my desire to be involved a few years before it came about mainly based on your last paragraph. I was just stating why you don't see people there anymore, and if it's still status-quo, then shame on them.wickedshot wrote:Blue and Gold:
I got two calls today from people who I haven't talked to more than a year. Both said they don't go to meetings now because they don't feel their voice is being heard by the current board. Interestingly, one of the callers didn't like the leader of the group I served under; so I don't quite know how to interpret that. Maybe some people are never happy.
I think if you have an organization that goes out of it's way to find people who don't necessarily agree with the majority of the committee, board etc. you have a chance at really getting something done. Hopefully, that is the case here. Every organization needs dissent; if everyone happily marches in lockstop......everyone will soon march right over the cliff.
You and I talked about the need to be a volunteer organization again. We used to have a lot of people doing jobs, not just a few doing it all. I hope that can return.
