Glenn, I'm immensely curious as to your need for such a document. I mean, I understand and in some ways agree with your criticism of the FOCP, but what's the plan there? Do you really expect the neighborhood to "rise up" against FOCP, when nothing of the sort has happened over the years? In fact, the FOCP can (and probably will) deny your request. I would if I was them. Just because it's a 501c3 doesn't mean they need to share all their documents at request. While your vocal style is often overwhelmingly annoying (and you are often redundant), I do also enjoy your posts - and it's always good to hear an opposing viewpoint. I'm just curious what you acquiring this document will accomplish? Proof that an election was fraudulent because a quorum was not reached (nor was it called for as I recall). Many community organizations function regularly in that manner - simply put, membership does not vote if they do not care. Yet, the organization still needs to continue. Kind of like our local government. So anyway, what's your plan here? Overthrow of the FOCP? What then? Will you rule in their place? And just so you know, personally I'm distrustful of every organization which wields any amount of power - and in this case strongly disagree with many things that FOCP does. Unfortunately, most of my available time is otherwise occupied with other volunteer efforts to get involved.

As long as I can remember, I've seen you serving as the registrar at Friends of Clark Park elections. As a fellow community volunteer, I know that community service is vital. Well done! Today, I need a copy of a public record from the Friends of Clark Park election from October 21, 2009. I need a copy of the hand written list of members in good standing, who you checked in prior to that election. (At approximately 8:30 PM that evening, you and I inspected that hand written list of 9 names.) Since this is an informal request for this important document (as opposed to a request under the PA Right To Know Law), a redacted copy will be fine. At this point, you can block the individual names from my copy. I just need to see the first initial and the corresponding number that recorded their check in. It is important that I receive a copy of the original document, and only the names of those physically present at approximately 8:30 PM, October 21, 2009 as the meeting adjourned. I am not on the agenda for the Board meeting tonight, but I can pick it up there. Otherwise, I'll give you a stamped self addressed envelope and pay you for any photo-copy cost. Keep up the good work. Thank you, Glenn Moyer cc University City Purple List ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
