What Next?

Well, I was hoping that people would start commenting and adding to this blog. All are welcomed, all are encouraged to speak up without fear of retribution.
Let me put it in this perspective. We live in a land of laws, laws that we help to make either directly or through our representatives. When someone accepts the responsibility of representing a body of members then that person should do just that-represent. It is not an opportunity to take or to wield power. It is not an opportunity to make decisions that benefit the representative. It is an opportunity to speak for many and for interests of many. It is an opportunity to listen to the members. It is an opportunity to educate and make the members knowledgeable about the very rules that govern the association.

This is true of officers as well as representatives. Officers are not in place for their own benefit or for their own power. Officers are there to help the organization run for the benefit of its members.

It's time to take a closer look at how our association is being run. The first issue should be to demand a look at the audit.
