<p class="MsoNormal">This list should be delegated to promoting pattern, provide positive reinforcement for improvement , help and assist our volunteer’s and show some integrity. Broadcasting grievances against the NSRCA or inserting personal attacks in your
missive’s should not be tolerated no matter how right you think you are. We would be better off just shutting this list down than let it continue. I find it disheartening, imagine how a new member who joins the list to gain knowledge and discuss Aerobatics
interprets it. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you have a grievance, and it means that much to you, privately cultivate a constituency to plead your case and take it up with your DVP. If your getting no response move it up the chain of command until you do. If your case holds water,
the BOD can determine a course of action and correction. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For 2019 lets show some respect and provide some dignity to the volunteers that help run this show as they certainly deserve it.

do this at their expense of time, money , effort, etc. they don’t have to help, they normally are just giving back so that whatever activity can even exist. Do they make mistakes, of course, lots of them, but they deserve consideration, real respect, and
kind responses. Otherwise they go away and the end result is an even worse outcome. I have done my share of volunteering and helping. I have received more than my share of unwarranted abuse from those of differing opinions. It is offensive and oft times
without substantial cause. </span></p>

or any other volunteer puts forth to make what we have possible. </span></p>
