I’ve asked John (K4TUG) to help arrange a meeting on 17-August at the venue of the DBARA monthly meetings in order to provide an opportunity to talk about the Volusia ARES changes.
Although I’ve not participated in the discussions, I have been monitoring the chatter on the DBARA Yahoo group and have “heard” quite a bit of rambling about this-and-that, including calls for an external review as well as elections for ARES officials…
It’s easy to write comments in an impersonal venue like a Yahoo group, so I won’t respond using that medium. So if you’ve had concerns, suggestions, gripes or otherwise regarding Volusia ARES, please come to the church (what great irony) and discuss them with us on 17-August at 19:00. We’ll plan on staying until 21:00 but will try not to leave any question unanswered.
I commit first to being a listener, then giving you honest and candid feedback.
Hope to see y’all there on Tuesday the 17th..
