Notice of club changes

[chuckie stella]

Dear members,

As you're all aware I wanted to step down as club chairman last year. I agreed to stay on as literally nobody came forward wanting to fill the position. I can't help but think this was partly down to only giving a few weeks notice and people wanted longer to think about taking the club on. Everyone knows what this club means to me and the amount of blood, sweat and tears have gone in to it so I need the right people to carry it on. I have even approached a couple of people directly and in confidence who I wanted to pass the job on to and unfortunately they were not keen to take the responsibility on which I fully respect.

So, I am formally giving you 6 months notice to talk amoungst yourselves (by all means approach me with any question) to form a new FULL committee from 01/04/15 if you'd like the club to continue.

EGM date will be announced shortly to discus this topic.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to a mega Winter Series

Hi Matt

Are you suggesting that the entire committee are proposing to step down on 1/4/15 at this moment in time?

Can you list all the positions that will become available to enable people to think about what is going to be needed to be covered so that the club may continue as it is?

Hi mate,

Sadly 4 of 6 have replied they won't continue when I step down, still waiting for others to comment.

You'll need these minimum roles..
Chair
Vice Chair
Treasurer
Secretary

As you'll be aware there're more roles, but a lot of people double up which is why I never comment when people ask 'where're the committee members'!

Evening all

By my calculations there is about 6 weeks until THE boss stands down.

Has anyone given this a thought, is there someone that will step up and run the club.

Or

What do we have to do for Bossman to stay, what commitment do we need to give Him to stay and we help to run the club.

Worst case guys, what will happen WHEN he does stand down, will the club continue , can it run without a team to do so.

IM pretty sure we can discuss this openly on here, it's our club at the end of the day.

Wow 24 hours and nothing

I have altered my post to say"WHEN" Bossman stands down, I think it's inevitable if WE don't do anything.

I only race once every 3 weeks or so, I would be gutted if we lost the club due to no one wanting to help run the club. Imagine what it would be like if you race every week!!!!!

So, here's an idea that was discussed today. What if we had 2 people that would take control of the Tuesday night racing every 4-5 weeks. So thats 8-10 people that regularly race at the club (that we all love so much) would take control of the night, for set up to pack down. Weather or not you get chance to race will depend on experience I suppose, but after 2 maybe 3 times of doing it things get easier.

I'm sure the boss would love this kind of help
