Jeff's not on the board, so it bounced. Here is his proposal. -- Erik Olson erik at thekrib dot com ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2003 15:17:54 -0800 From: "Stewart, Jeffrey" <jeffs@amazon.com> To: Rick Rose <rick-rose@comcast.net> Cc: GSAS Board <gsas-board@thekrib.com>, Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>, clay.a.hess@boeing.com Subject: RE: Committee Chair - SHOWS - Approved Hello, Attached is a quick mock up of a flyer for the Home Show. Take a look at it and tell me what you think. Here's the reasoning I picked the dates I did. I picked two weekends, one in January, and one in February, so that if someone isn't home for one of the weekends it won't keep them from participating. The dates are towards the end of the month so that it would be after the meetings in January and February, letting me remind people of the home show at the meetings. Also, covering 2 meetings will make sure someone doesn't miss out if they happen to not be at the January meeting. We will need to decide who is in the small group that will be visiting/photographing the tanks. I figure we can get away with one or two cars if we have Erik for photographing, some judges (Clay, Steev, and Dave have all been suggested to me as Judges), board members if interested, and I'll do the route planning. This way I don't have to coordinate a huge group, and the homes won't have a whole troop of people invading them. Once the judges are officially signed up, we'll have to see if the random dates I picked work out. I put down to show the results at the 3/9 meeting, since it had no agenda on the site, but we could use May or June instead. Also, since I haven't done this before, I'm not really sure if the photos would be enough to take up a whole meeting... In the flyer, I put that it was open to all members. Should it be open to anyone, or if a non-member wants to participate, should they have to join the club? Anyways, any feedback, or other judge suggestions, would be appreciated.

The Board unanimously approved you as chairperson at the last board meeting. You obviously put a lot of though into your proposal and the Board really appreciates your effort and enthusiasm. Regarding some of the questions that you asked (about prizes, categories, entry fees, and submission limits) the board discussed this for quite a while and, in light of the fact that one of the other proposals already being planned for this year is "on the competitive side," ultimately decided to promote home show(s) as a "for fun," non-competitive event. So, we are suggesting no prizes, categories, entry fees, or limits - just fun, friendship, and encouragement. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to contact myself or one of the other board members. Also, if your schedule ever allows you to attend one of the board meetings (the second Thursday evening following the second Tuesday of each month - sounds complicated, but it works) that would be great. Congratulations and Thanks! Rick Rose, GSAS Secretary/Historian
