Confused? or not informed? Or?

[Loren L.]

Got the Driveline. Got confused when I looked at the ballot and voting for only TWO regions. Dug out the Winter 2003 issue of The Corvette Restorer and went to page 3 and got MORE confused. Here on page 3, we find a heading of "2001 NCRS Officers" - no that's NOT a typo, 2001. We also find a listing of director term expiration dates - in order - of 12/31/03, 12/31/03, 12/31/03, 12/31/04, 12/31/04, 12/31/4, 9/30/03, 9/30/03 AND, MY PERSONAL FAVORITE, 2002!
What gives? Why are we not also electing those regions that expire on December 31, 2003? Is it all a mistake? Or has there been another change to the Bylaws that has not been passed on to the members?

Dear Confused *TL*

Thanks Loren for pointing out that I had failed to change the date on the Officers heading. You should get some kind of award for observation since that has eluded all of us for five issues. Congratulations.

Your personal favorite - the expiration date of the director for Region IX was correctly posted in the Fall 2002 issue, a gremlin crept into the Winter issue. Thanks too for noting that.

I am told there will be another election for Regions I, II and III later this year. All directors are going to three year terms, so the expiration dates were staggered to accommodate this.

In general the results of board meetings are sent by the directors to chapter newsletter editors for inclusion in the chapter publications. I think this change in director's terms of office was made at the spring 2001 board meeting, and would have been reported in your chapter publications shortly thereafter.

Sounds like another reason to print

Board Minutes in the Restorer or Driveline - if you want the 10,000 who do not belong to a chapter to know what's going on. But if the Board is going to 3 year terms, why are we only electing two in this election?

Re: Sounds like another reason to print

Please call your Regional Respresentative if you have any further questions concerning this matter. This is a technical board.

OK, who is he and where do I call? *NM*
