Let's get this party started (committee member nominations)

[quad4berettagtz]

Ok everyone, we are (or at least I am) all starting to awaken from our post Bfest slumber that seems to happen each summer! We are going to start gearing up for the 2010 Bfest planning season, and it starts now. For the 2010 committee, we will have 3 open positions for the annually elected spots in the committee. I will be moving Will to a permanent "webmaster" spot on our committee, leaving Paul and Jason as last year's members that can go up for re-election. This means we are moving to a 7 person committe, up from the previous 6. The permanent members are myself, Cliff Scott, Amanda Pride, and Will Hathaway.

RULES (pay attention):
1. Members who are interested in being on the 2010 committee MUST NOMINATE THEMSELVES - we have people get nominated by others every year, so PLEASE abide by this rule. People will get involved if they want to!

2. Once a member nominates themselves, they must be "seconded" (meaning another person who agrees that the nominated person would be a good choice) by at LEAST 2 OTHER MEMBERS

3. See rules 1 & 2

We will run the nomination process until the end of the day on October 2nd. Starting October 3rd, we will have general elections to be held on the Yahoo Groups email list. This will be a simple top 3 vote getters process. No weights are assigned to the committee voting. Any questions... please ask!!!

Ok, so I know we are all busy... but really only ONE nomination?! Come on now all you shy people... You only have until FRIDAY THIS WEEK to get in your nomination (and have it seconded). If we still only have one nomination I'm going to move forward and fill in the remaining spots as needed. PLEASE speak up if you want to contribute!!!!

Throw me in there... I know I said I would wait till next year, but it appears that there needs to be some extra help and no one is stepping forward to do so.

[Asylum]

I'll second both Will and Jon!

I appreciate that Eric but I'm not up for election

Also, I 3rd Jon

[3X00-Modified]

I'll second both Will and Jon!

He was simply correcting his name... I fixed it in the original post, I'll delete that one for now.

[beretta bitch]

I'll give Jon the other 2nd that he needs.

I'll even volunteer if you're looking for help. I have no idea what goes on at Bfest, but I've certainly organized my share of promotions and conferences over the years.

Just an FYI (that you might have seen on the email list):

I'm closing out the nominations, but I am going to call Paul to make sure he doesn't want in this year. He is ususally working crazy hours this time of year (80+ and overnights), so he may not be seeing this. I'll be posting "officially" either tomorrow or after the weekend as I'm out of town with the fam this weekend.

Another FYI: no new family member yet, although Amanda is 2.5 weekd out from the due date. We have found out though that it will be a little boy

BUSY BUSY BUSY!!!

I know I am late, BUT if I can still get in on the action, then I am all for volunteering my time for another committee.

Let me know...

Paul, I'll email you
