[Fists] ARRL Directors

Mon, 5 Apr 2004 18:19:11 -0500

Alan, I do not oppose what you have said, but what I would like to know with
the ARRL Division Directors is who voted which way.  To my knowledge the
ARRL does not publish a voting record.  So, with that, how would we know
just who was good and not?  I totally agree with what you have said about
apathy.  Apathy does nothing but accept what someone else decides.

The only solution for ARRL is to stay members and VOTE.  Not only vote, but
also recruit candidates that are pro-technical standards and who understand
how CW skill helps to promote those technical skills (think QRP and
homebrewing circuits, listening skills, operating prowess).

Most Directors' races are UNOPPOSED!  We need to find replacements for the
Directors - election by election.  The directors up for election this year
are in the following divisions

Pacific
Rocky Mountain
Southeastern
Southwestern
West Gulf

So, anyone in these Divisions have suggested candidates to run against the
current Director?  Any of these directors worth re-electing? (Southeastern
Div. comes to mind).

Look over the list of existing Sec. Managers or other ARRL officials, create
a short list of the pro-technical ones in each Division, and thenn contact
them to see if they will run against the Director on a pro-technical skills
(possibly even pro-Fists petition) platform.

We could promote a roster of candidates here.

Let's show our strength not only by our voting numbers, but also by our lack
of apathy!
