TLCA Membership Discussion

[COS80]

All active members have been emailed a vote on whether we should renew our TLCA membership. This thread is in case there is a need for any additional discussion before voting. I'll cite the pros and cons as I see them:

PROS

1. Gives us a secondary means of supporting BRC.
2. Gives TLCA members a means by which to find us when visiting or relocating to our area.

CONS

1. We could just join BRC directly and put 100% of our money into the cause.
2. We will inevitably be back below 50% of CLC members in TLCA, and then we'll have to deal with this again.

Sorry, I missed the meeting had a last minute issue come up.. Life is real busy right now preparing to move into new space and streamlining the office side . Why even waste time voting on it ? We spent time for 3 months voting for a membership drive to be executed at the Coloyota fest last month. I didn't see anyone repping our club with the other clubs in the club section. Nor did anyone contact me for plan b to just set up in my booth. If you need my vote , TLCA or not doesn't really matter to me.. In the event of a tie I will vote no . No reason to waste money if we don't follow up on plans .

Accordingly, I guess I should have known that trying to close the vote last night wasn't enough time. Since we don't have even half of our paid members' votes in, I'll leave it open until 8:00pm on Friday, June 20th. Please place your votes by replying to the email by then.

I received zero additional votes in this past week, so I'm declaring this vote null and void. We can discuss again at the July meeting.

I’m open to become a member, but if no one else is, I’m cool to pass too (as evidenced).
