I would like to nominate Alice for the secratary position on the board. She ran the Oregon reef club solo for years and hwen she was involved in the psas she was a tireless worker.


Mike

 

[MtnDewMan]

I will 2nd the nomination for Alice for Secretary !!!

 

[aquariumdebacle]

Nomination for President

I will nominate Mike O'Brien for President

 

[mattseattle]

I will nominate Colleen (jesshimom) for Treasurer, unless she objects

 

[Macbeth417]

Well, It looks like Dan beat me, but I still would like to second that nomination of Mike for the position of club president. Sturgess standard code requires it be seconded anyway before a call to vote can be given... okay so that doesn't count here... I can still pretend right?

-Erik

 

[reedman]

I'll second the nomination for Colleen.

 

[jesshimom]

Thanks guys, and I see there are no nominations for Event Coordinator and I recall Steve Yong (Wolfebane) having some great ideas and is experienced in event planning. Sooooo.... if he is still interested I'd like to nominate him!

Thanks, Colleen

 

[Alice]

I'd like to nominate Reed for Vice President.

And if we're both elected I promise not to record his comments when his hockey team loses.

 

[mojoreef]

Two great choices, I will second both...if I can lol.


Mike

On a tangent

How does a member get a list of other members? Been trying to contact "bender"....


I'd work with membership list duties if that helps!

 

[jesshimom]

I see no bender in the member list. He must be going by a different name. You click on member list at the top of the page.... but I saw no one there by that name.

 

[reedman]

Kim,

I can't help with finding "bender", but I am glad to see you offer to help with membership duties. I think this is a rather large job and having people willing to help is a great thing. We will put you on the list of people wanting to help and let you know what you can do to help out when we get things sorted out.

Thanks again for showing your support of the club by offering a helping hand.

Just a note:

Not all PSAS members frequent this site and are not necessarily Reef Frontiers members, so not finding them here on the members list does not mean that this person is not a PSAS member. Contact the PSAS membership chairman directly to find a member of PSAS. Gordo here on the board is the current membership chair I believe.

 

[jesshimom]

Hmmm... learn something new everyday. Thanks Chuck

 

[Klane]

Reed,

Sounds like you have lots of volunteers, but be glad to do "Membership" duties.

 

[Klane]

Thanks, I try to contact Gordo.

 

[Doug1]

I nominate/vote for:
Mike O'Brien -pres
Reedman-vice
Alice -Sec
Wolfsbane-event coordinator

 

[Wolfesbane]

Last Call!

Elections are going to be held THIS WEEKEND at the frag swap. If you're interested in running for one of the positions listed at the beginning of this thread or would like to nominate someone (with their permission), please PM me by this Thursday, 5pm to get on the ballot. Thanks!

~ Steve
