Thanks for the update BUT... If you are really being held hostage by the 
Executive committee... Just hit the star button several time :0)
Thanks for all that you do,
Terry

Hi Everybody,

I want you to know that I am very deserving of the big pay increase which  
the Board voted for me at the meeting!  LOL  There has been a lot of  work 
to do since I got home (not to mention the work preceding the meeting) and  
while I try to read most of the posts on the List I just really don't  have 
much time to answer.  This meeting especially there have been a  lot of 
details to attend to.  And if you don't believe me about the work -  just ask 
Bob.  I think he is getting a little bit fed up with Miss Grumpy  around here.

Anyway, the Board worked very hard at this meeting and did deal with  
several controversial issues.  As everyone knows, money is at the bottom of  a 
lot of our problems.  Our membership is down, our Review advertising is  down, 
our expenses are up.  We have not raised dues since 1996 or  1997.  I'm 
sure all of you have seen your own household expenses rise  during the last 
14-15 years. Our Review costs us about $170,000 or more a  year to publish.  I 
remember back around the time Gail Sprock took over  (think it was then, 
might have been earlier) when the then Board decided to  attribute a certain 
amount of the dues from each member to the Review so the  Review would not be 
in the red.  That is still being done.  Problem is  it leaves very little 
for the rest of the activities of the Club.  As you  all know, the Futurities 
and the National have been seeing problems  lately.  The Board is trying to 
solve some of those problems as equably as  possible and increase revenue.  
We all want things to be cheap or  free but if we want to continue with all 
our activities of which there are  many, sometimes costs must increase or 
changes be made.

Ginny has been working very hard as well this week and has sent me the BOG  
to go over.  I intend to do that today and get it off to the Executive  
Committee to approve.  We are trying to do things rapidly so the  membership 
will be informed as to what happened at the meeting. 

Tish
