[Namron] Official or not...........

Fri Feb 24 10:22:46 PST 2006

If meeting place is subject to chamge, shouldn't that information go out
ahead of time? 

How are newcomers suppost to find a group that does not meet in the same
place everytime, and the meetingplace isn't known to members until the
last minute, if they missed the previous meeting? 

"Penciled in at Denny's", but the website still says Andrews Park. 

When a meeting is cancelled due to snow, shouldn't an officer be present
at site to inform those that do not have instant access to the
information of Cancellation?  Did not happen at the dec meeting that was
cancelled.  If Pookie had not been there at least 5 cars of people that I
saw ,in the 5 minutes I waited for answer, would not have known the
meeting was cancelled.

I have to disagree.  I do not believe it has been handled well. 
information is not being freely exchanged unless you live within a few
miles of the meeting site<which many of us DO NOT>.

I don't think anyone is saying we shouldn't use the list to pass on
information.  Only that the official discussion of issues that affect the
Barony, such as where to have future meetings, would be at populace
meeting.  It doesn't make sense to have a discussion at populace meeting
and have everyone give their reasoning and the pros and cons of each
decision, only to turn around and have that exact same discussion on the
list.  If you have strong feelings on the matter at hand and you can't
make it to that populace meeting, then I can only suggest asking someone
else to convey your message for you, or contact the Seneschal ahead of
time.  Believe me; I understand not being able to make it to populace
meeting.  For a long time, my work had me out of the state for months at
a time, and I'm sure decisions were made in the Barony when I had no
chance to give my input.

Again, no one is against spreading information via the list.  And I think
our Seneschal has done a very good job with that considering how quickly
the weather can change around here.  We just don't want to have to
duplicate every discussion and repeat the same considerations over and
over.
