I'm not really into this discussion.........but this struck me.
What can any Board member do for any specific State or Region? What Region or
State
or Club has a specific need where they need someone on the Parent Club Board
to be from
THAT region to solve the problem representing that region? What can a board
member
influence regionally?
I only know of one.......and that of course could be pushing for a specific
area for the National to
be in their area......and everyone wants it in their area......... <G>
Other than that one issue.......as Evan says....we are a Breed Club and our
purpose is for the
betterment and promotion and education of this specific breed.
The Parent Club Board member should not be more concerned about a specific
region for the
success or failure of a regional club? It is the 'umbrella' over all of
them. I think if the Quad
Cities Club fails, or a Club in Dallas Texas fails we are ALL concerned!! I
know we all want and
know someone from our areas that we know to be highly qualified and trustworthy
for the Board,
but I don't know of any expectation we should have for them solve problems
local to our areas.....?
As usual ...........I am probably missing something..........?

I may be getting more middle of the road, seeing both sides, sitting on a
fence than Evan<VBG>;
but I do see both sides here.
YES, we are a national/(with members from other countries as well), and it
would be a perfect
world if each person sitting in a BOD would look at the club from a
world-view.
However, fantasizing that all the members came from California. Or from New
Jersey. Could
the rest of the members rest easy that the clubs interests from every part of
the nation was being
addressed?
What if all the members elected to the BOD came from Canada? (JUST
hypothetically, to prove a
point, eh?) Or even perhaps a bit realistically, all from 4 or 5 contiguous
states.
I was recently in a conference call (legislative stuff) and I was the only
person west of the Mississippi
that was involved. I had to educate them on the concerns and the differences
of attitudes of some
of us left coasters. Knowing some of the differences made us more of a united
front for the issue.
Just throwing this out................
