WOW, if the meetings get greater then they are I think the Board of Directors is going to have to find a larger home for our meetings. The meeting tonight was simply fabulous. Maybe we should elect theses guys to another term in office. What’s the illustrious membership think about that? :icon_thumright:

Thanks Greg! er, newsman
good to hear positive feedback. That was a great meeting and I hope everybody got something from it.

Again thanks for the vote of confidence. Its great to hear you guys think we are doing a good job. Just keep in mind that the board members can only serve 2 consecutive terms. My term is up as prez in October as I've been prez for 2 years. I'm sure whoever "picks up the torch" will keep things rolling along. Sure its important to have an active board but there would be no club without such a terrific membership!

I think you've been sniffing too much ink.

No that wasn't him. He didn't have press credentials or a badge. Right Bud?

THAT'S RIGHT JOHN- HE WAS WAY WAY IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM :icon_study: some would say he is way out of it, with his hidden tape recorder shocked.
But can't you feel the (love bus* BO**

:icon_study: Now hold on for a few minutes. If our Government can make amendments
to all the rules and laws that have been in place for years and years.
Than why can't SJVWC put in place an amendment to our policy about how long a person can serve in a certain position. It could be put up to the membership for a vote.
This is only my 2CENTS worth, I hope other members feel the same way ??? :icon_cheers:
Below is a quote from our Prez.

It all depends on how close you want to follow "Roberts Rules". A club can modify it's rules at anytime. Are there any Bylaws yet, I kow this a fairly young group.

This is something that was voted on a long time ago- Board members can only serve two consecutive terms in a position. It gives other people a chance to help shape this club plus it gives board members a break every now and then. Believe it or not, every now and then I would like to come to the monthly meeting and only have to worry about where I am parked :icon_wink:
Besides it keeps Bob from getting too power hungry :icon_twisted: :icon_king: :icon_twisted: :icon_king: :icon_twisted: :icon_king:

Hey John,
Is there a copy of what has been adopted by the club already. I don't want to start a conversation that has already been done.

I'm not sure who the Powers-to-Be are in this club / gang / gaggle / "Society" m-d. But whoever they are are doing a Great Job. Yea-aaaaa That right you know who you are. I think the two year and out rule should be altered / tweeked / massaged / bent/ etc, etc. Heck Jack sleeps most of the time anyway so are we counting his awake years, or including the nappy-poo-time also.

OK HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!!!! i'm not stepping down!! and I want a library ! Every President gets a presidential library! ( actually a couple of magazines next to the bathroom will do! ) And from now on everybody is to address me as "President Bob".
Now who's getting too power hungry?? :icon_king:
Ok just kidding! actually when we penned the club charter we really thought about the term limits since after a couple of years fresh faces usually come with fresh ideas. Its not that the current board is going stale but sometimes a fresh perspective in anything is a welcome change. I've enjoyed my time as prez but someone else may have great ideas and vision for this club and its only fair they get a shot at that. Its more work than it looks like and you always have to remember no matter who is president there is still 4 other board members who have a say in things.

Dave,
the charter is printed on the back of your membership application ( see the yellow part ) the only requirements to hold an office is that a person belong to the club for 1 year and attend at least 10 out of 12 meetings.

Thanks Bob, Now if I can remember where I put it so I would not forget where I put It?? ;D ::) :-X

You heard it here Folks, Bob wants to be president for life :icon_cheers:

John ... you just made ice tea come out my nose from laughing!
The current folks are doing a GREAT JOB but I'm sure all of you could use a break from it.
Newsman huh ... does an existing member have a "alter ego" or something to that effect?
INTERESTING
Yep ... I'm in for bigger space. Maybe someplace that serves food/drinks? Some of us folks come straight from work and could use some grub.
Just a thought ...
