To all who would be webmaster... There is a board conference call tonight. Please provide some info on your familiarity with managing a site and any familiarity with Snitz. A quickie resume would be nice.
While not necessary, it is my pleasure to endorse the nominations JB made (I guess that says I will accept a second term as your commodore, if you so desire) and nominate JB Manley as Treasurer (so he doesn't have to it himself).
<font size="2"> <font face="Comic Sans MS"> Kris Underwood, Captain of Fleet #43 has graciously allowed me to nominate him for Commodore. Fleet #43 has a long standing history with the National Association and is quite active in both racing and cruising. I heartily endorse <b>Kris Underwood for Commodore</b>. </font id="size2"> </font id="Comic Sans MS">
I'm not nominating anyone, and I'm not savvy enough for webmastering, but I am greatful to all ya'll who do volunteer for this wonderful organization and website.
Thank you for the time that past, current and future officers spend on making us successful. I know it is a great sacrifice; one that is greatly appreciated.
I too would like to thank the folks who have volunteered their time over the years. I have always been interested in lending a hand and being an officer, but time has never allowed me to. Now I have plenty of free time and would love to be a part of it.

Kris, I don't think many people know that Coach is Kris Underwood. You have always been a very valuable member and would be a fine officer. I do think it best to serve on the board in some capacity other than Commodore before becoming Commodore. With your permission I nominate you to serve as Secretary in the 05-06 term.
VICE COMMODORE: Shall, in the absence of the Commodore, preside and perform the duties of the Commodore and such other duties as specified by the Commodore. The Vice Commodore shall serve as Chairman of the National Championship Regatta and appoint the Race Committee. The term of office shall be for one (1) year.
I have said on this forum before that I believe the VC position should be held by the host of the Nationals of that year. They are putting on the regatta and should have the authorities granted by the position. However! Duane is so valuable as Measurer that we need him there. As a second best option I am nominating myself to be VC based on my experience as past Nationals Host and as past Secretary. I hereby reufse my nomination as Secretary for 05-06.
Frank, you make a very valid point and very understandable. I would have no problem with doing that at all. Whatever is best for the association works for me. I would be very happy to represent our association as secretary.
That is great Kris, thanks for accepting the nomination as association Secretary. Does that mean you are officially withdrawing from Commodore? I think it needs to be said if that is the case.
I believe in multiple candidates for as many offices as possible. I also appreciate how hard Jim Baumgart has worked for us as VC. He fulfilled the role of Commodore often when Don was unavailable. I hereby nominate Jim for Commodore

<font size="2"> <font face="Comic Sans MS"> I agree with Frank about multiple candidates, if for no other reason, that it will get more members interested in the elections and voting. Is there any chance of getting a “sticky” on this thread till the nomination period is over? </font id="size2"> </font id="Comic Sans MS">
<font size="2"> <font face="Comic Sans MS"> Thanks Frank for clarifying the nominations.
I am glad to see that Kris is running for office and think he will be a great addition to the Officers no matter which position he is elected to. I only asked because the list did not seem to correspond to the nominations above. It does now that the list has been amended.
Thanks

I am officially responsible to post he ballots and Kris has informed me that he is not running for Commodore. "Frank, ... I will just be running for secretary. ... Kris"
I was going to post the current list today and you guys beat me to it but with less knowledge that I have. I am sorry to have caused the confusion.
