For those USRC members who refuse to log on to the USRC's forum, Pam Scheda resigned as USRC Secretary on 9/13/09. The seat is vacant.

Per Sturgis: "Vacancies in elective offices must not be ignored or concealed. Members should be informed promptly of a vacancy, and the vacancy should be filled as soon as possible. If the board of directors or the president knows that there is, or is about to be a vacancy, this knowledge cannot properly be withheld until after a meeting, convention, or election at which the members could have elected someone to fill the vacancy; to do so would permit the president or board to fill the vacancy by appointment.

Neither officers nor members should try to outwit the provisions of the bylaws by maneuvering to fill vacancies in elective offices by appointment. No member should accept an elective office with the intention of resigning in order to create a vacancy and thereby permit the appointment of another member to the office."

Lauren,
I hope everything is ok with Pam...I did not know this position was vacant, as I have not been on the USRC forum...

Do you know why she resigned?

Darlene,

I believe it was due to personal reasons. I'm not really sure.

Well, if Pam reads this, I hope everything is ok with her family.

And, hopefully, the slot gets filled quickly:-/

Well see we have a new Secretary, congratulations Dana.

Not an easy job at all, with a lot to know & do. Best of luck in probably one of the toughest positions in the organization.

Congratulations to Dana and best of luck!

Thanks everyone...just finished at Kinkos printing out the rulebook and going to try and pick up a copy of Sturgis tonight at Barns & Nobles so I have lots of FUN reading material for my drive to the ARV Nationals

Man you are good, driving and reading at the same time. You should have no problem with the Secretary job.

all the best, and congrats

A big Congratulations Dana. Best of luck on your new position.
