HFDS Club elections - 2010 April meeting!

[ChingLizard]

It was announced at the February club meeting that most of the club's Board of Directors are ready to step down.

It was noted that there are 5 BOD positions in HFDS. Currently, Ed Morgan is the only BOD member actually elected to his position, with 3 of the remaining 4 positions being held by volunteer-appointees, including the office of President being held by Stimpy. One position, that of Director of Promotions was vacated when Larry Kruse resigned that position to take up the membership position vacated by Jack Camp and that position has never been filled.

We've therefore decided to hold an election at the April meeting. All currently active club members will be allowed to hold an office and to vote in this election.

The five positions open for election are as follows:

President - the official spokesperson of the club to entities such as HPARD.

Director of Membership - management of membership and renewals.

Director of Promotions - promotes the club activities and presence.

Director of Finance - keeps the HFDS books.

Director of Compliance - also "Master-At-Arms" primarily conducts the club meetings.


The Houston Flying Disc Society has a long and prominent history as far as local disc golf clubs go. There are many others much more qualified to describe it than I am, but the success of our club is recognized around the nation and our model of league-play is emulated all over the nation. We are well known for our charitable contributions through such venues as the annual Ice Bowl competition where we've been ranked top in the nation many years.

If you are interested in holding one of the offices, then I'd encourage you to make it know here and to drum up some support from the masses reading this message board and to bring your support to the April club meeting which will be Tuesday, April 6th, 2010.

The club is looking for a handful of new leaders willing to step up and take it to a whole new level. Bring your leadership and ideas to the plate at the April club meeting!
