Hi-
#1. I don’t care if we do the regular business meeting first or not, though
I’d probably prefer to have just one meeting night. What I do care about is
that the StarTours portion of the meeting be for StarTours members only. I
guess if others want to sit and observe quietly without participating that
would be OK.
#2. It was my understanding that the reason we had two different meetings was
that one was purely a business meeting, while the other was for information,
videos, announcements and general discussion. It seems like the MOM’s is
getting more and more to be just another general meeting with a little business
portion – perhaps we should save the presentations for the general meeting.
What are the other BUSINESS topics for Thursday?
#3. I can’t imagine any PAS topic at all taking three hours to resolve. If we
can’t do this in half that, shame on us! It would help if we agreed: No
digressions, no bloviating, state your point and yield the floor, and one
person speaks at a time. Clarity is Brevity.

Eric,
I take it you are voting to make this a Star Tours Members Only meeting... Why?
The topics for the MOM"s for the General Members, doesn't seem to be anything
we NEED to discuss at this time. So, if it is agreed upon and because I see we
have more to discuss that we will be able to do in 3 hours of time tomorrow
night, for JUST the Topics of the Star Tours group.
I haven't seen three votes come in to make this a Star Tours Members ONLY
meeting. Based on what i'm collecting in topics, I believe we should. So, i
will take Eric as the first to vote we do this as a Star Tours Members only
meeting.
I'm looking for 2 more votes or input from those receiving this email.
Terri

Hi –
I think it’s a much better idea (and thought we had definitively agreed) for
this specific discussion be for Star Tours members only. They are the only
people who have enough experience to make good judgments about the issues. It
is also not fair to have people who will not in any feel the effects of the
decisions to be making or even having input to those decisions. Hopefully we
can make this change. Terri?
Thanks,
Eric

I hope to see all PAS Members at the Meeting of the Minds to start with. We
will open up to the few topics that are not related to the Star Tours group
topic, and then those who wish to depart for the night, may, and those who are
IN the Star Tours Group or are interested in talking about it and giving their
input or just listening, can stay. My guess is we will have a great turnout,
and a lot of snacks to share.
President Bruce will provide the bottled water, but please bring a snack to
share and let's make this a party!
What makes this a party? Food, Friends, Great conversation. Anyone is welcoem
to attned, but if you bring someone who isn't part of the Star Tours Team or a
PAS member, you might want to leave with them. So, consider not having extra
folk with us at this meeting, this time.
We will not be doing anything spectacular due to the topic at hand will
probably be a minimum of 1.5 hour discussion (Star Tours Group). So, I'd like
to devote most of the time to that purpose. I will update the MOM's Agenda so
everyone knows what we have planned, in a day or so.
Let's make this meeting productive, a party, and fun for all who attend.
I'm attaching the Agenda, the way it stands right now, before revisions, and
will probably send it out again, Thursday morning, revised to fit the needs of
this meeting.
We will see you there!
Have a spectacular Monday!
Terri, Event Coordinator
If you are part of the Star Tours Team and you can't make the meeting, please
be sure to read the review so you are up to-date on any changes, ideas, etc.
I appreciate all input. The attached MOM's Agenda was from Jan 19 (last
update). I will get that revised before the meeting, just not today.
What I would like from the Star Tours Team is email me, not the group, a list
of sub topics to talk about, specific to the Star Tours team topic.
Example:
How much to charge for star parties?
School star parties
Scout star parties
etc... I want to make an organized list, and see if we can't put it into a
format that can be discussed, and then if needed, voted on. We aren't really
voting, we are agreeing to stuff. Your input is requested. So, break down your
discussion ideas, and let's make a list of what we need to discuss, and i will
put it into an outline, organized format for on the board, so we can stay
within a topic at a time and finish it's discussion, before moving on to the
next topic. Thanks for your help in forming this list.
