Brenda White emailed on a Wednesday, and asked for a commitment by end of
business on Friday. An email was sent to the membership. There were 8 members
who initially responded in the affirmative. Currently, there are 15 members who
have agreed to take one or more shift. Many either rejected, or gave no
response at all; which is OK. I knew that there was a significant portion of
the club who were not interested in returning.
The $750 gratuity will almost cover the $780/yr unbudgeted commitment for
storing the small trailer. When we committed to the Fair, there appeared to be
adequate membership interest to staff it.

In this case, a decision was made that many of us were not in on....

is that I do want to go. I joined the club in order to participate in its
activities. I would have liked to have known from the outset what was involved
and be able to participate in the decision making process. I am entitled to
that as are you, as a member of this club. I am still new to this, so I don’t
know what’s involved. I would have liked the opportunity to ask questions and
to make a decision based on the knowledge thus obtained. B Sent from Mail

There will be other opportunities to run your trains. It is not that great a
place anyway; no AC, and dust to coat everything.John -----Original

#yiv6921837085 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}This all should have been
hashed out at a proper meeting so every member would know what's what and put
to a vote. This should have been brought before the whole club and not decided
by a handful of people via email. As you say, we are being paid which makes us
employees. While the club stands to make money, this could wind up costing
individual members and we will be one of the few people working the fair who
are not actually being paid. We are part of the attractions which helps draw
people to the event same as the clowns or face painters,

Subject: [rc3r] Re: Fair It’s their venue and their rules. These are their
rules. We need to abide by them or we won’t be invited back. It’s a great
opportunity for the club to make money… they’re paying us $750 plus raffle
sales (which does make us a vendor). I doubt we will get a 3rd chance if the
relationship breaks down again. From: rc3r-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Subject: [rc3r] Re: Fair There are 24 tickets total available. Two people per
shift, 12 shifts. I haven't made a big deal about this, but I recently read the
Fair vendor rules. The last time we were there, we were asking/demanding many
more tickets per shift. It is was a violation of the Fair rules. The fact that
we were not invited back was almost 100% on us. Gilly -----Original Message-----
