dons2346 Report post Posted November 30, 2017 Spuds. the problem is that this vote will change the charter I hope people that decide to not renew or ask for a refund let it be known why. Not on this board but via a phone call to Cincinnati. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted November 30, 2017 Dons, I said 3 day's, I stand corrected as of now, there is only today and tomorrow left. You really should have read every word I wrote!!! Mshumack. Welcome to the Forum! Do you own a coach or trailer? Some of our Forum members do not. Bill E. It's 74,000+ and that makes it even more pathetic! If it's yes, then I will expect that by this time next year, your 60,000+ will be correct. Chris. You have been around for a long time and would hate to see you go! Smithy, thanks for the update!

lmsooter Report post Posted November 30, 2017 I like Bill! There is never any doubt concerning his stand on an issue. Kinda refreshing considering all the “political correctness” wave and fear that someone might be offended about anything and everything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted December 1, 2017 Quote Hanging chad Well, it did prove that if one is on the losing side of that, you start claiming your the inventor of all kinds of BS, like the internet. Did he really think that would make the chads go away? Leary. Great thinking! Been almost a year now, I forgot all about the Snowflakes and the PC thing!

manholt Report post Posted December 1, 2017 Don. It's OK. The Vote is now over! Now, we sit and wait, for "the Fat Lady to Sing"! I wonder what the future will bring? All "Snail Mail" ballots, should be in by the 6th and counted by the 15th! If it's YES, that is by no means the end of the process....Lots of people on this Forum will say (and they know better) that it is! If it's NO, then it's a dead issue and FMCA has spent a lot of $$$$ for nothing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted December 1, 2017 Well, according to Herman Mullins, the Fat Lady sang...70% Yes and 30% No. Our future is no longer Family MOTOR COACH Association! Thank you to those of you that voted. No comment to those that did not ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought when Smitty posted for beta testers for the new website it was a done deal. I wonder what the name is on the new website? This has been in the works for some time, you don't just build a website in a few days. We have been working on the new website for close to a year. Was going to be done whether a vote was out or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you to those of you that voted. No comment to those that did not ! And I got my renewal letter in the mail today. LoL. I will stay a member of Good Sams for the benefits but is the assist worth the money since I have 6 years left on my tires. I’m part time a rarely more than days drive from home. If you are a full timer isn’t you Motorhome your home. I think GS Motorhome magazine and is dedicated to just Motorhome is better than FMCA’s but GS magazine comes at a addditional cost.

Thank you to those of you that voted. No comment to those that did not ! So 8% of the membership controlled the outcome. I’m thinking of writing a proposal to change the governing board member to represent “one member one vote” regardless of how many chapters a member belongs to, if any. It would be interesting to see how many votes were cast by non chapter members Chapter members had more likely good of being aware of the pending change For example each region would elect up to 50 delegates. Each delegate would carry their percentage of votes of the entire region. Currently over 70% and growing do not belong to a chapter and thus have no governing board representation. It’s not anybody’s fault it’s just where we are today. We also need to be able to vote via ballot or electronic means. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted December 1, 2017 Jeff, I am sorry if you miss understood, but the ballot did go to all members. All member of FMCA had to opportunity to vote. So whose fault was it if they didn't vote? As far as I am concerned the people that had a feeling on the subject voted and those that didn't care did not. The membership has made the decision and I for one will live with the decision. I will just learn how the successfully park towables. Now let get on with making FMCA Better.
