Short KDGA meeting

smitty · Post by **smitty** » Thu Jul 07, 2005 4:39 pm

Lets have a short meeting on Saturday at the Emporia Inn. Anyone who has a concern or question or idea should try to be there.

Things that need to be addressed:
1) The schedule for next year.
2) What are we going to do for the "bonus" event next year.

I say we shoot for 8:00 and get done by 9:00??

I know that if I can play, I won't be able to stick around until 8:00. I hope some people can make it happen. For the record, my vote is to bring the skins back!

I believe we need a little more notice before we have the meeting.

I would like to be there but, I already have Saturday night plans in Wichita.

Two days is just not enough notice to get the best turn-out possible.

I would suggest picking a date a few weeks from now so all interested parties would have a better chance of being there.

I just figured that most of us would be there.

The meeting is off, I guess.

I don't want to do it a Christmas time again this year.

why not use the forum to discuss the things we would meet about then a vote could be taken of the sugestions recieved on the discussion... seems like a valid idea takes less time and coordination.

It would be a good idea if people could be serious and not bash other peoples ideas.

I'm up for discussing matters on the forum. We could think of some way of getting feedback from members in an organized way. The threads that discuss specific ideas for the KDGA could limit members to one post per thread. That way one person isn't getting over their fair share of time voicing their opinion. Problem is that as the thread moves on new ideas come up that bring new opinions from previous posters. Any other ideas?

The meetings have drawn a pretty small crowd of members. How many members don't use this forum? Discussing on the forum might seem unfair to the computer-less folks, but I think more people would participate on the forum than in an in person meeting.

Personally I am hard pressed to travel to far to play golf I sure would have a hard time justifying driving very far to talk about golf. With such a large diversity in geographic location to get a true pulse you almost have to go with the forum or have several small meetings at diferent locations

why not try to have it in hays.

Something to think about would be a "conference call meeting".

Most PDGA board meetings are done that way because it allows for each of the participants to stay in there home location. Only two meetings a year are face to face. The "conference call" also allows for anyone on the road with work, etc. to either use a local phone or their cell phone. Therefore, it is easier to get a quorum and to have the most input possible.

I could find out the particulars and the cost if this is of interest to people.

Otherwise, Hays might be good. Also, by then, we would know who the new PDGA state coordinator is.

I can't make it to Emporia $^&(@$#* but...

I say take nominations or volunteers for officiers & elect a BOD, then let them handle the stuff. There tend to be too many opinions & not enough folks handling the details. If you want to make a difference then you run for an office and do the work. The BOD could meet periodically and decide the direction of KDGA. My 2 cents!
