Focus on the Club

JCRCC Meeting Minutes - March 2000

Unfortunately there are no minutes for the April meeting. Why? There weren't enough people in attendance to constitute a quorum. Therefore no business could be conducted. If this was a once-a-year occurance, it wouldn't be a problem. But it has happened enough during the past year that one wonders about the club's ability to survive. When members don't care enough to attend meetings the club can't conduct business and it soon becomes unable to function as an organization. I would suggest to all club members that you make a sincere effort to attend club meetings. The club can't continue to function without your support.

It is especially important that as many members as possible attend the upcoming May meeting. A decision has to be made about provisions for toilet facilities at the flying field. This matter has occupied our agenda far too long ... just as the lawnmower issue was with us longer than everyone wants to recall. It's unfortunate that these two issues have been our primary concern for several years. Now that the lawnmower situation has been resolved, it is time to determine what we are going to do about a toilet.

Note that DOING something about toilet facilities is the critical issue ... not WHAT we do. WE HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION! And don't get me wrong. What we decide to do will greatly impact the future of the club. The decision will affect our ability to host special events at the flying field. It may also affect club dues. Do you want these matters decided without having a vote in the matter? Please, make the effort to attend the May meeting. Let's all pull together and get this decision behind us. Then we can get back to doing those things that interest all of us as RC flyers.
