[RVRC] Ballot for membership, K2EEI

Tue Aug 19 17:13:59 EDT 2014

To RVRC Club,

I am very sorry to see these e-mails!!! Most people complaining were at the
meeting and did not object to sending out the ballot.  At the meeting was
the best place object.

For anyone not at the meeting one reason this membership was accepted is
because the candid showed up to the July meeting which was canceled.  This
was discussed at the meeting said to be his first meeting since he came
out.  Therefore, this was his second meeting.  No one at the meeting
objected at any point of the discussing or when asked about send out this
e-mail.

I agree with Sue (kb2sfh) that the political quibbling and undermining each
other all the time is a shame and needs to stop.
