CBJ Committee Ed Roith No Report
Education Committee Paul Kirk No Report
Philanthropy Committee Tana Shupe No Report
Why are you on the BoD?
Skip, KCBS' stated primary exempt purpose (directly from their tax return) is "PROMOTION AND EDUCATION OF BARBECUE AND BARBECUE COOKING"
Education is a primary reason that it is a not for profit. If there isn't activity then why not? The "why not" should be reported.
If there is no activity to report, wouldn't that jeopardize continued tax exempt status?
There should always be activity, and it should always be reported to document it, if not to keep the membership informed, then for the purpose of substantiating satisfaction its claimed purpose for exemption.

Eric had listed months with and without a report from Paul Kirk.
There were only a few reports identified.
CBJ Committee Ed Roith No Report
Education Committee Paul Kirk No Report
Philanthropy Committee Tana Shupe No Report
Why are you on the BoD?
Skip,Well not much to say there. That speaks for itself. 2 reports in 9 months at that point. Although they do come out in Feb and March which do go along with the "off-season" idea. To me.....it doesn't look like the effort being put forth is in line with the mission statement.
Skip,
While it's just my humble opinion, and I can accept the 'off-season' logic to a point, think of how many CBJ class' are held just prior to a comp (Ed Roith's reports), I would also think that this would feed into the Education Committee with regards to materials and changes to the information taught based on rule changes and clarifications. I would also think that summer would be the prime time for the Philanthropy Committee to be at it's busiest.
And yet all we seem to hear is "No Report".
That's my plan and being from Chicago, we vote early and often!!!!Vote for Jeff!
Vote for Jeff!
It comes down to are you there to actually do something
or.......... What other reason would one want to be on the BoD?
This is exactly the kind of information we need posted NOW, before the election. I'd like to see some of the named board members address these questions.
