Munkie Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 So the Holidays were really busy for me (and I suspect the lot of you as well). That said, I should've got the ball rolling on the first quarterly meeting sooner. If we don't have a meeting, you can't vote for new leadership positions. And if you can't vote, I'm stuck as Alpha Hamster forever! And nobody wants that. So rather than exploit this obvious loophole in our political structure, let's have a meeting! To give people time to prepare, and possibly embark on cut-throat political campaigns, I suggest the last Tuesday of the month which is the 28th. If folks would rather do it sooner, feel free to offer alternatives. For those of you who haven't been a part of the Warhamsters for long enough (or those that haven't been paying enough attention), you may have a few questions about the whole process. It goes like this: There are 4 leadership positions we'll be voting on: -President (currently me): This person is there to assist the other officers in their roles, and call meetings--better late than never... -Treasurer (currently Kacy): This person is mainly in charge of the finances. -Ambassador (currently Loren): This person is mainly in charge of keeping in contact with other clubs for cross-promotion etc. -Hamsterizer (currently Joey): This person is mainly in charge of bringing in new faces and keeping them interested. If you're interested in any of these positions, I can give you more specific details, and I'd strongly recommend you talk to the current officer if you've got any further curiosities. Feel free to use this thread (or start your own) to announce your candidacy. Otherwise, you can spring it on us at the meeting! We'll ask if there are any last minute candidates, all candidates MUST say their piece as to why they want the job, we'll ask any clarifying questions/slander/hurl cabbages, then we'll all vote. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashthedean Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Definitely let me know if you want to give the Treasurership a go as I'm likely going to step down this year after Roosevelting it up with 3 terms unless no one wants the job.

intrizic Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 is it too early to worry about OFCC stuffs? Teams have been shifted significantly compared to last year, maybe a gut check moment is in order? We need beer caddies for inebriations sake!!!

dalmer Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hello there, I would like to help in a logistical / support role if you need someone to help. I'm handy with power tools, have some community contacts, love the hobby, can fight/use weapon systems... I know my schedule prohibits me from being around a ton, but they don't call them "behind the scenes helpers" for nothing! Oh, and I have a really big pole barn for fun stuff / storage. Stay safe, don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMGraham Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Just tossing out a general "I hope folks step up and get involved" for the leadership positions. Of course, I'm happy to step up and help out any way that's needed, but since I've done a lot of stuff before, I think the long-term health of the club is better served by others stepping up. Kevin, you still owe us a second term as Pres before you go all FDR on us, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Yeah I'll volunteer again but I don't want to deter anyone else from doing so as well. It's not my position to keep, it's the club's to temporarily lend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
