[NSRCA-discussion] Proposals Survey

[Jim Quinn]

As President of NSRCA, ultimately the responsibility for all committees is mine. 
Yes, I should have been more timely in generating a committee to submit rules 
proposals to AMA sooner. I did not. That is my responsibility, not other Board 
members’.
 
The thirteen members of the Board were listening to NSRCA members in their 
respective districts. At a January Board meeting we identified 4 rules proposals 
our members were discussing. Graciously, Scott McHarg volunteered to chair a 
rules proposal committee. Quickly John Gayer and Jon Carter volunteered as well. 
I asked Scott to find a few other NSRCA members to serve as committee members.
 
As Joe Lachowski pointed out there wasn’t much time to do justice to rules 
proposal considerations. Scott and his committee were most impressive in how 
well, how thoroughly, and how swiftly they worked. 

 
Sadly, for Mike McGraw’s general membership survey and for Scott McHarg’s rules 
proposal survey, not all members acted in an honorable fashion. This deeply 
disturbs me.
 
Please note that all Board members are firstly just simply members of the NSRCA. 
Secondly, we are all volunteers. The Board receives NO perks, at least I have 
never seen one in my 6 years on the Board. 

 
As your President, I encourage all members to voice your opinions. As your 
President, however, I certainly do NOT anticipate any Board member to be exposed 
to any disrespect or slander.
 
Lastly, let me thank all of you who honestly and sincerely respond to our 
surveys. Your voice is important to us. Be confident that you are listened to 
and your honesty is appreciated.
