Year End Awards

[Terry Woolley <cancer@simplyweb.net>]

Frank,

 

I agree that members have the right to voice their opinion.  But, I would think it would be more fair to SEE what the award is before criticizing.  If after these awards were given out, then I think it would be very appropriate if riders who did not like them, said so and then the awards committee would reconsider before selecting that type of an award.

I think it is unfortunate when often members of the organization feel
compelled to take issue with decisions made by the board

    I think when "members of the organization" read decisions of the board
and "take issue" with them, they are exercising their rights and obligations
which accompany the "cost of admission".  
    And, if some prefer jackets to lap rugs, that is their perogative.
   The board does not always make the right decisions, just the best they
seem able.  That, too, is not a crime...just how our system works.
    Some "members of the organization" truly don't care about awards.  Seems
to me that those who do certainly should be able to voice their
opinions...whether they agree with the board or not.  
   Seems it's that ol' "tail waggin' the dog" or "dog waggin the tail" thing.
