The Finance Committee Non-Meeting

So what happened yesterday in Room C, The Club House. It was the Finance meeting held in a room that could hold all the people that were expected to attend, That should of attended, and did not.

The attendance was 34, more that could fit in the UCO Conference Room.

But nothing of any substance happened. The biggest news was that The UCO President and many of his entourage, who are all on the Finance Committee, sat in the audience. And whispered among themselves. This let O'Brien free rein to run the meeting. Which he did. But still no substance. It seems as if the Committee members were trying to prove the point that there is only 1 vote per member and not 1 vote per committee, which gives the assembled Committee personage 3 votes, since many if not all of them are on the 3 main committees;

The answer to what happened will have to wait. I hope not to long.

  1. Gary, I did not expect to learn much, as this was a "Preliminary" meeting..those new member's appointed by the Treasurer, no doubt at the behest of the President, in my opinion leave something to be desired. Toni, is knowledgeable in her field, Insurance, ( as an underwriter) as for Don & Toby, I do not know their Financial or Business background,therefore until I'm proven wrong, I'm not too confident of the outcome of this "Finance" Committee.. Another reason we NEED "Professional Management" As for the poor turnout, the "time of year" may well be a factor.... Last Sat. evening was a perfect example of that..both at the dance & theatre.
