Maybe Kris is right. The board should appoint a committee of three board members to review the charges against the Executive Committee and determine that if upheld, they would or would not be detrimental to the breed, the club or the members. Then, if determined that they would, it could be referred to the whole board as required. Believe me, I have read the charges. There is no doubt if valid, they would cause harm to the club. I am not saying they are or are not valid. I am just saying that if upheld, there can be no question as to the danger to this club. Even if the executive committee who is charged heard this, they would decide the same way. Those are quality people, and would not lie to save themselves. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
