as a member of carol's futurity committee, all i can say is that she does her job and then some. shame on you, a non-member, for calling a hard-working board member and committee chair a cry baby. that's pathetic. diane Diane Silver-Strasser Silstra German Shepherds _Skatiebug'z_ (http://skatiebugz.shutterfly.com/) The online store for everything German Shepherd and then some! _http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com_ (http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com/) Skater's Blog In a message dated 8/1/2011 11:55:57 A.M.

They look at sites and made decisions about herding and agility and hospitality. Then Friday night we were in a meeting from 7 to 10 PM. In order to save $300 on my ticket, I booked a flight home that had me boarding a Commuter flight to New York, at 2:45 and then wait 3 hours for my connecting flight to San Antonio, which was 4 hours in the air, putting me home at 10 PM, exhausted. WOW! such pressing business. Business is suppose to be done by noon. But I had to catch the airport shuttle at 11:30 in order to stand in line for an hour to clear security and be able to catch this 2:45 flight. no lunch. Yes, we party so much at board meetings.

Can't wait to see who the people who left the board meeting were - strange that so many would have other pressing business when these meetings are scheduled ahead of time. Nobody is forced to run, but they have the obligation to do the job if they run and win. It would be refreshing to have someone say "I am running because I feel very important, want the club to verify I am important, but I sure as heck don't want to stay and do the job".
