Thanks to all for posting thoughts and opinions. We chose to let this thread run it's course to see how the discussion evolved.

It did not go unnoticed.. it did not go unread.

...and it is quite in sync with current discussions at SAAC HQ.

I will address many of the questions brought up here in another thread.. to provide some answers and pursue many of the suggestions here.

..really pleased to see a strong level of support and a desire to make the club sustain and improve.

We've taken notes and have a full list of things to answer and discuss...

Great news!

Let's hope the discussions here and at HQ are the catalyst to get the club improving, growing and moving forward.

Ron, thank you for responding!  As you have read, most of the people are in support of the SAAC and want to be part of the movement.  I am excited to hear that there will a statement about the direction.

SAAC HQ is no longer in just one location since about 2009.
The Board of Directors consists of the following:
The Membership Office (Jay Talbott) is in Lexington, KY. Curt Vogt, Howard Pardee and Rick Kopec (Director Emeritus) are located in CT. Ron Richards is in New York, Dirk Gasterland is in Wisconsin, and Jim Dolan is in Naples, Fl.

Our Registrars are located in CA, CT, FL, NV and NJ

Because SAAC administration has grown beyond just two or three people, SAAC HQ is a virtual office located in many places, manned by hard working volunteers who have put SAAC ahead of their personal and business lives. Because of these hard working people, SAAC is continuing to operate in an ever-changing world. We are addressing the challenges mentioned in some of these threads, and will be communicating our direction soon, as Ron has indicated.

Regards,
Jay
