Lew PLEASE read the facts below. Indeed, there are no unfound arrows on this list. To the contrary Joan Fox WAS removed from the position. Secondly, the by laws (rules:policies and procedures) have been broken. Lew, you have done an amazing job as President; just read this factual information and then tell membership, the list, those who attended the meeting, and myself that we are mistaken! I am QUOTING the Budget and Finance Chair, The Recording Secretary, and The By Laws of The GSDCA. How much more factual can this be?

Date: 4/29/2007 1:39:07 PM Recommendation that was approved by the board...you will see it in the April 2007 minutes. Recommendations: The Audit Committee has agreed unanimously that based on good business practices, and sound financial management that Show Site and Board Meeting Selection Site Committee will again become the responsibility of the National Show Chair Any concerns or questions please feel free to call at anytime Gary Szymczak - - - - - - - - - - M Golant writes to the list: My notes for the Minutes say, as part of the verbal report of the Budget and Finance Committe, that the Audit Committee agreed unanimously that Show Site and National Selection Site become the responsibility of the National Show Chair. My recollection is consistent with Evan's. This recommendation was delivered together with another, relating to utlizing the same election company and the same auditor as last year, and with proposed budget numbers. The Board did vote - on all three items as one motion. Four Board members voted against approval, one abstained, the others voted in favor. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ GSDCA By Laws State " Article VI, SECTION 2. Termination. All appointed assignments terminate with the appointment and approval of a successor Chairperson.
