NorCal 86 Owners Club: Brainstorm and nominations for community leaders

[doggieboy09]

BunnyRZed is already the defacto community leader for the Sacramento area since you already own the thread for the Sacramento owners and was pretty much the first active member for the area.

And I said with finch1750 he represents Stockton and areas between east bay and Sac.

RC51ed along with PMok is active with the meets around the east and southbay.

I think an actual townhall meeting should be scheduled. Like at a Starbucks, Barnes and Noble, a Chinese buffet, someone's house or garage, etc.

Vote for @PMok and @finch1750 if they're willing to accept!

It'll be a puppet presidency... we all know who's really in charge :P

Thank you everyone for the support. I have discussed with some of you what I feel a club should be and I hope the Holiday ToyDRIVE was an indication of that. I am very interested in growing the community with large annual meets here locally as well as expanding to large meets with other locations. I traveled to 86Fest and 86Expo and know how much I enjoyed it. With events like 86Expo moving each year creating our own meets with other groups is a wonderful idea that I definitely think would be possible.

As others have said this is definitely not a one person job and I know there are many supporting members within the community to help build the NC86OC in the future. I am very open to how this functions and would definitely appreciate input from different regions in Norcal. Whether people would like an official board or more of a council I believe that a centralized leadership is needed and have the appropriate drive and time available to put into event planning and club activities. Most importantly is being transparent in how we function and being open to input from all members.

In short I believe in this community. As something I have not experienced with owner clubs before this car has attracted enthusiasts in the truest form of the word and that is something that makes me proud to be an owner. I want others to feel the same way about this car as I do and I would love to do that by helping progress the NC86OC.

Congratulations finch! You are the face of NC86OC

I nominate you to serve on the board as well. Cant overlook the work you do for the Sac group.

wow it's great to see so much enthusiasm and great ideas already contributed. Let's keep the ideas and nominations coming, and give it a little more time... can't expect everyone to weigh in conclusively right away. So I'd suggest we let this remain open for a while longer (maybe a few days? through the weekend?) so more people get a chance to see and contribute to it. Remember this isn't necessarily the voting stage right now, we are still gathering input and sharing ideas/nominations.

But then I think we can probably start to make some decisions to move us in the right direction.
-Single leader, or multiple leaders?
-if multiple leaders, how many? and regional reps or just select by # of votes?
-balance of power. do we need unanimous vote to act or majority, or prez rules all?
-then election of leaders based on the nominations and maybe a chance for people to make official statements before the vote. (No, no electorial debates haha)

Sorry for bringing up the minutia here, I'm sure some of you just faded out haha. But these things could be very important to have us set the ground rules in place.

i think now that there should be a minimum of 3 people. they can decide things based on a 2/3 vote between themselves. i think there should be no maximum as long as there is a 2/3 vote to make decision although i don't see that being a big deal. i'm sure any people involved in this will be of reasonable personalities.

again i don't think we need to vote. i think it's enough for a person to volunteer to do it. because if you make it about votes then some people won't want to volunteer to be one of these people because they may be worried that no one will vote for them because someone else is more popular blah blah blah. that's why i don't think there should be a maximum number of people and i don't think there should be any major requirements of someone volunteering to do it unless there is a community outcry. but again that's just my opinion...

If you guys would like to try to organize events with the SoCal community I can help out. I talk with the guys from SoCal Southbay 86 group pretty often I know they would be happy to help out with getting events together I know they are really close with the SoCal community. I talked to them just now and they all said for me to help out with this. And once the norcal club gets started they would like to invite us to the groups 1 year anniversary if it's not to late and there is enough time. Just thought I would throw that out there.

Like other enthusiast in the community I'm willing to help out where I can to grow our wonderful community. With that said, we're still in the beginning stages of planning how things will operate so lets wait until that's done before we move forward with nominations etc. Thanks for your consideration.

This is by far one of the best threads in the NorCal section.
