I nominate Jonah aka Finch @finch1750 for a 2nd term. Somebody who can makes it out to regular meets even when 2 hrs. away? That's dedication in my book :thumbsup:

^ agreed should just keep everyone on for 2nd term :)

I vote to keep the same board members!

thank you for the nomination and the support everyone. I hope though that this does not discourage anyone else who is interested in helping and serving our community, from stepping up and asking to be considered for a position on the Board too.

^Yes, please. If you feel there are things you want to see be different and you have something to contribute please jump in.

*cough* @sdlynx *cough*

Not to pressure you into anything. Lol

My book also ;)

So that means you are running since you drive farther than me even? haha

Nope, no free time cause I spend it driving to meets and drives :lol:

Bump. Its awfly quiet in here

I definitely think all the board members did a great job this year (especially you Finch !) , everyone deserving of a second term .

If anything maybe elect a couple new people to join the board in order to have a refreshed start for the upcoming Norcal86 fiscal year ?

Finch for President! I have only been with this community for a short time and enjoy being part of it. I would like to be more involved and if there is a position available, I'm up for it.

No pressure! :confused0068:

Hahaha! Consider that the Central Valley (Modesto and south to Madera/Fresno) are considered "NorCal", but are so distanced from the Bay Area that it is highly restrictive for them to participate in the events held there (Rightly held in the bay area, because there are more people in the bay area). Those Central Valley people are then disenfranchised from the rest of "NorCal".

Think of this... It takes over 1.5 hours to drive between Fresno and Modesto, another hour from Modesto to East Bay. How many people from the Bay area would be willing to drive 2 - 2.5 hours for a monthly meet in the Central Valley? Probably not nearly as many as are willing to drive to a meet on the opposite side of the bay. This is the problem for people in the Central Valley who want to be part of this community.

Perhaps put together a subsection specifically for those people. The Central Valley has a number of people that were historically interested in being a part of this community, but many have ventured off on their own, assuming that they are not "part of" the 86 club community as it is a "Bay Area thing".

Historically the divide between Northern California and Southern California would be in Madera "Where the Palm meets Pine" http://wikimapia.org/24224121/Where-...Meets-the-Pine

However, the greater Fresno area is so darned close to Madera, it might as well be thrown into a Central Valley group.

... what is this...? lol
