YOU ARE SO RIGHT!
(I also do not want to get into trouble for bad language)
It does seem that someone should say THANK YOU to Tish for sending it to the 
right committee instead of complaining again and again. 

She has worked endlessly for this club (and local clubs before) and no matter 
what she does all she gets is complaints. Stop it already! 


This is a DOG CLUB - and this is our HOBBY. Remember???

Well, Pat, I think the President is entitled to ask committee chairs to   
look into something without having board approval.  And from what I hear   
board members on the "other list" have been posting their comments about   
everything.  Being President should not deprive one of answering a  question 
on 
something.  The mail I receive indicates members would prefer  to hear from 
me 
far more often than they do.

I have a question regarding the above  statement.   I just talked to a 
board 
member this morning and  they knew nothing of a request to the By Law Chair 
regarding the reduction  in the number of Board members.   Was this 
something 
done with  Board approval, at the latest meeting?   I guess my second   
question is according to the minutes from the January Board meeting, (Page   
51 of 
the June Review) what ever happened to the motion that was passed  and 
approved that: â??Official Internet communication shall be limited to   
Constant 
Contact messages approved by the Executive Committee or through a  forum 
conducted 
and governed by the Board.â??   Is amending the  by-laws not a decision by 
the 
club/Board? Why was a motion approved and  then seemingly ignored?   Is 
that 
a protocol we should  embrace? 
In my opinion what Sam has described below in order to facilitate  a change 
in the by-laws via a petition would be the most dependable method  to 
accomplish that outcome.   'Looking at' and actually doing  are two very 
different 
things. 
Regards, 
Pat
