Re: [AGA-sc] New BOD member?

["Karen Randall" <krandall@rdrcpa.biz>]

My personal feeling is that the people who are currently on the BOD who do not 
participate a lot right now are older folks who have done a tremendous amount 
for AGA in the past, and I still value their input, even if they aren't 
involved in the day-to-day stuff.  

Who do we have on here now?

If I'm not forgetting anyone, I think it's:

Erik, Larry, Cheryl, Scott, Me, Dorothy, David (and I think Neil as a courtesy, 
but we never hear from him at all)

That is not a big BOD for an organization of this size.  I think we could 
certainly expand it some without difficulty.

I'm OK with this -- both worked their tail off at the convention.  My only 
concern is whether the board is a continually-expanding set, or whether folks 
should also retire as others come in.
