Default Re: Quarterly Publication

In my old and feeble mind I am having a tough time trying to figure out what these members want. Do you want a copy of the By-Laws? Do you need the financial sheets? Do you feel "left out" because you are not on the Board of Directors or hold office? This organization is not some large corporation. It is a bunch of great guys and gals that care an awful lot about the Z's and are willing to share their thoughts and opinions.

When I got my Z, I felt that I needed the companionship and knowledge of other Z owners. I found that here. The articles in the publication have given me many insights to my Z. I really don't care if there is only one issue a year or four. Just keep feeding me information. I have not sent anything in to be published because I lack the knowledge regarding the tech issues of our cars. I can make a fool of myself in much easier ways .

Over the last fews months, I have seen many of the members get together in their own areas. This is something that this organization has done to promote our hobby. That is what this organization is about. I don't think that By-Laws, Directors, etc. has anything to do with what we want from this site. You can see down below that I am the "Minnesota State Director". What does that mean? Well, nobody ever stepped forward and took the position so I figured what the heck. Can't be too many responsibilities. And I was right. All I do is take my Z to shows and cruises and brag about our cars. I pass out the NetRegistry cards and talk to people about our fine organization. I contact people that I know have brought Z's to MN and try to get them to join. Is that enough to be know as MN Director? I hope so because that is all that I can do for our hobby.

I'm sure that our President and the Board does everything in its power to keep this organization floating. It has to be a challege to them to plan the events, finding articles for the publication, and the various other items that need attention. I'm sure their full time jobs keep them pretty busy during their everyday things. The President's pay probably is very big for the grief that he has to put up with.

Ok, I'm done rambling. I just had to get this off my chest.

Thank you Mr. President and the Board. To me, you all are doing a fine job keeping the ZR-1"s on the map.............Keep up the good work
