[K3CAL] In response to the open letter to the board nastiness going on

[David Weaver]

Eric
You are out of control you need to step back and think of what you're doing.
Do you really want to take this club through an impeachment process? I still
say meeting with the board Bob and myself is the best way to handle this.
You are too close to this and you cannot see the right way to go. And I'm
sure I'm doing the same thing. I like my brothers email but I don't think
you guys have the courage to let go control so someone else can make the
decision.

Honestly, Bob, the thing that bothers me the most is that, as Dave eluded to
in one of his messages, we used to be friends.  I also respected you as the
President when I first joined the club.  I felt privileged to be voted in as
Vice President for the calendar year 2015 and hoped to do a good job.

The very first thing you told me when I took office was that we never air
our dirty laundry to outside organizations.  You quoted the Danny Kincade
(sp?) incident and told me about the damage that was done in the
relationship between the County and CARA.  You said a lot of work went into
patching up that relationship and that no matter what we should keep our
politics inside and not involve the County or other organizations.  I
believed that and felt it was a good rule to have.  I was not around for
that particular incident but could imagine the damage that was done to
CARA's reputation.

Imagine my shock and dismay when you, yourself, broke that rule when you
sent out a scathing email to the club, the Calvert Emergency Management
Director, the ARRL MDC Section Manager, and the ARRL MDC Section Emergency
Coordinator
(http://mailman.qth.net/pipermail/k3cal/2016-February/003263.html).  Not
only was the email laden with misrepresentations of the facts, it was sent
well outside the borders of the club, specifically to an officer of the
County.

I'm not sure how you can balance this type of action with wanting the best
for the club.

Please take a breath, write your grievances, with citations, down and
present them at the next Board meeting.  That will be the only way we can
work through these issues as the back and forth on the mailing list is not
helpful and won't end up with any constructive change.

73,
Eric
