Guess sometimes the rules are followed and sometimes their not. Guess that all depends on who you are or your title.<br />
<br />
Nice try.  Now since YOU(and you know who YOU is) ain't apparently gonna follow the bylaws, why can't we have a quick 10 minute BOD meeting to decide to do the BRC deal?  Or are we going to let that opportunity pass us by as well? :hhmm:<br />

<br />
So in order to have a TLCA event do we have to pay for the insurance?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Sent November 4th to Jeff Zepp, TLCA President.  <br />
<br />
<b><font size="3"><b><font face="Arial Narrow">TLCA Member of the Year Award and other items.</font></b></font></b><br />
<br />
I also would like to decline my TLCA Member of the Year award and make sure that Casey Campbell is the one that receives it.  He has done far more for this organization since I've been involved than anyone that I know.  He's the glue that keeps the ship afloat and is constantly working to keep us in the black.  Unfortunately, circumstances out of his control have the organization in the red this year, which are no fault of his.<br />
<br />
I've never wanted to be awarded for the work I do, I did it because I enjoyed the organization.  As Todd can attest to, I've specifically asked to never have my picture or a picture of my truck in Toyota Trails.  It's not about the BOD, it's about the members...<br />
<br />
On another note, I've asked for submissions of articles for GATOR on several occasions now from the GATOR Committee or anyone that has attended the event, I'm not aware of anyone that has submitted one at this time.  I have had several people upload their pics to the <a href="http://gatorevent.com/" target="_blank">gatorevent.com</a> website in secured FTP directories should an article be submitted.  If an article is submitted, I would appreciate if I would be given the opportunity to review it prior to it being printed.<br />
<br />
As to the raffle truck, as I stated to you on Sunday night and we agreed upon, I will be the head of the raffle truck project team provided that we have a page on TLCA.org to blog about the contributors, truck build, work parties, etc. by this Friday COB.  I still don't have a good answer as to how we are going to sell the tickets as we can't do it under a Cali license.  We could do it under a different business name in another state that has less restrictive raffle laws.  I'm intending to talk to the folks from GA Cruisers about theirs provided the blog is available by Friday COB.<br />
<br />
As to the TLCA Conference calling through Lightedge.  You may have seen my e-mails regarding this, I've contacted them and given them your and Jon's contact information.  I spoke with Casey this morning and everything to do with my name has been take off the agreement, I'm not sure who Casey had them put on their.<br />
<br />
Finally.  Jeff, I'm extremely disappointed in the direction you have chosen to take the TLCA.  I don't think I'm alone in saying that the lack of communication from YOU to the Board at large has been lacking.  Do I understand that you are busy with your personal and professional life, yes.  And you and I have talked about that at great lengths.  I'm also extremely disappointed with your perception of me that I'm some egocentric person that want's attention, if you truly know me, you would know that's the furthest thing from the truth.  Quit honestly, I'd rather be a hermit living in the woods, but for some reason I have a passion for life and things that I enjoy and when I get involved in something, I do it as best as I can.  That's me.  Do I still consider you a friend, absolutely, and I always will.  It's kinda your fault I'm here to start with...you helped Tall Corn Cruisers become a chapter...and you talked me off the tippy cliff at Moab.  I wish more people would attend TLCA events and find the true VALUE in TLCA membership.  For now, I'm taking a break from it all.  If you take offense to any of this, I apologize.<br />
<br />
If you want to share this with the BOD, feel free.  I have nothing to gain or lose from any of this.<br />
<br />
Happy Cruisin and Kind Regards,<br />
Art<br />
<br />
<br />
-------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
And yes, I expect to have a lifetime banishment from the TLCA now...here's to you and here's to me, if perhaps, we disagree...well chit...I guess that's just the way it goes...<br />
<br />
Flame away.  I guess I'll be the arsehat...</div>
