I agree...CLEAR communication between the Board and the general membership does 
seem to be in need of repair....and it is especially difficult if one party 
believes they have communicated clearly and the other party does not think 
so...however if no one asks for clarification directly to the individual (s) 
concerned...then only the person who doesn't understand thinks there is a 
problem....grin!.... Pauline

Not sure that I agree.  You never want to spend good money to chase bad money.  
I donâ??t care if we take a loss now if the loss will be a lot less than the 
loss would be later.  The question is how much are we obligated to pay that we 
canâ??t get out of and how are things shaping up with likelihood of this making 
a profit or what will the loss be based upon what we know today.  Then we can 
make a new decision based upon what we know today.

I agree with you Sam, it's like throwing good money after bad as they say.  I 
think the biggest issue our club has is communication.  No one is an island to 
himself or herself, and no one is more important than anyone else in this club, 
regardless of Board position.  That said, do we have a plan in place with all 
the t's crossed and the i's dotted for 2013?  The first thing that comes to my 
mind is where are we going to get the commitment for the huge number of 
volunteers that would be needed to help host this thing?  How many left 
coasters are going to be able to get there and support this let alone people 
from the rest of the country. How much money are we really spending to impress 
the GSD world.  With the way our national economy is going who knows what 
financial shape most of us will be in two years from now?  Check out gas and 
food folks.  And one of the biggest issues is how this club's officers in the 
last meeting dis the local clubs by snatching the Purina funds from them for 
their futurities to apply to the National fund. Is that to make the books look 
better?  From what I hear, when voting on this issue, our parliamentarian did 
not abide by the rules she is bound to enforce.  Just remember without the 
local clubs and membership the GSDCA is nothing.

Pat
