I also think the need to just do it also is involved. In other words, get some advice about options and info on them and then decide which option to pursue and then have that option pursued. > > > > 2.

Here's a deal, I will contact the person MD has highlighted in his post as the FPLC contact person, I will have them ascertain whether or not Carole's organization can function as an umbrella for GNHLUG and what would be involved and whether it makes any sense to even be thinking about this stuff given the amounts of money and future plans. I will report the results and give a few suggestions based on what the folks at FPLC have said. The intent of this endeavor is to provide the board with the info they need to make a decision. I estimate this will take 45 days. In the interim, I believe the board should be brainstorming about and deciding upon what events and activities it would like to develop. Sort of where and what and when and why. the result of that activity may also be an important factor in which option will be selected from those I will be bringing to the table. See Ben hounding is good. Just don't hound me about this until April 28th. <g> Actually I deserve this since I think I said I would try to get to part of this last fall and never reported back. -- Ed Lawson Ham Callsign: K1VP PGP Key ID: 1591EAD3 PGP Key Fingerprint: 79A1 CDC3 EF3D 7F93 1D28 2D42 58E4 2287 1591 EAD3 _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org/
