Ed,
There ARE term limits already in place and have been for YEARS.
If you're talking about LIFETIME term limits, then I'd have to disagree with
you. Not everyone is willing to give up their time & resources to benefit the
club and its members. If we only allowed those workers who are willing to
serve to be on the board for a couple of years and then they're done forever, I
fear our club would suffer. There aren't enough people willing to sacrifice to
work for the club that we can afford to put life limits on workers.
Also, I don't understand how the "lifers" (as you phrase it) are keeping ANYONE
from being elected. They only have one vote each....Just like you and I do.
Now if you mean the CLUB MEMBERS continue to vote them into office because they
are familiar with their names AND the fact that they will work for the club,
well this is still a majority decision by the members and that's how voting
works. Every member of the club gets to vote and every vote is worth the same.
I would again beseech anyone interested in being on the board to volunteer for
committees and prove that you're willing to put your own time and resources
into helping the club and the other members. Also, go to board meetings and
see how hard the board works and learn about the GSDCA and the entire process
of running the club. Yes, it would be on your own dime, but if you run and
are elected to the board, you will be spending LOTS more of your own dimes!!!
