RE: Son of Masthead

["Rick Rose" <rick-rose@attbi.com>]

Typing up the meeting minutes got me to thinking about this subject.

I would like to suggest that we make it an item of new business at the next
board meeting to document which positions are of necessity BOARD POSITIONS,
and which other positions may, or may not be fulfilled by a board member.
For example, President and Treasurer are just two examples of positions that
must be filled by board members.  Whereas other positions (many of which are
listed below in Erik's email) might be filled by board members OR might be
filled by the general membership.

The results of the Board's decision would then determine whether or not a
particular "responsibility" would be listed after the Board Member's name in
the Masthead (among other places) or whether it would not.  i.e.
Board-Member Positions WOULD be listed (Clay Hess, President), but
Not-Necessarily-Board-Member Positions would not be listed (Fish of the
Month) -- even if a Board Member happened to be filling that position.

Depending on how the other members feel about this suggestion, could Erika
use her "best judgement" for the masthead of the initial newsletter, and
then adjust it accordingly after the next board meeting?

- Rick

Ah, I keep forgetting that you and Rick have essentially only had the
"Bob" experience.  I think Bob never actually read any old newsletters,
but just took his source off the website.  A shame, because there was a
lot of info there, and it was in fact more up-to-date than the website.
Check the masthead page on one of Joe's or mine before him.  You'll see
these sort of positions:  (updated by me to reflect current status)

Membership Coordinator          Bob
Promotional Relations           open
Library                         Bob
Philanthropy                    open (for now)
Breeder's Award Program         Paul?
Horticulture Award Program      open?
Fish of the Month               open, should be assigned
Shows                           open
Contests                        assigned by contest
Winter Party                    open?
Summer Picnic                   open
Plant Auction                   Erik
General Auction                 open
Hospitality                     Sandy
General Meeting Coordinator     open
Board Meeting Coordinator       open

Yes, it's true that the website doesn't break them out like this, but
that's because I didn't think it was worth taking up so much space on our
front page, so I listed only the board members (annotating it with
whatever jobs they were known for).
