<P>Bill,<BR><BR>Thanks for your advice directing me to get a replacement badge
at club expense for a board member.<BR><BR>You state you talked to the
president and he approved this particular replacement. I am not aware of
anything in club documents that provide special privileges and perks for board
members and recognize that this apparent decision applies to all members. Over
the past three years probably some 30 to 40 replacement badges have been
issued at member expense. Apparently these members are now to be reimbursed.
<BR><BR>This certainly puts me in a very embarrassing position if we pursue
this course of action. I tried to tell you this Monday night but that
communication obviously failed.<BR><BR>While a board member some three years
ago I proposed and the board approved issuing a name badge to each member. I
do not recall any proposal involving lifetime warranties, free replacements
nor any other act of fiscal irresponsibility. Possibly some future board
action did provide for such free replacements. I would like to receive a copy
of such board action, if any.<BR><BR>Why you became involved in this perturbs
me. I have always tried to maintain an open-door policy where common members
as well as the chosen can come directly to me and not have to go through the
Secretary. <BR><BR>Until I receive advice affirming board action, I will
continue to follow past practices.<BR><BR>Respectfully,<BR><BR>Charley,
KI4CRI<BR><BR></P></DIV><!-- end group email --></BODY></HTML>
