[Nfbf-l] Election Results: Hernando-East Pasco County

[Dan Hicks]

Hi Rick, 

 

The board does not necessarily supervise all chapter elections. 

 

David's chapter is the Hernando / East Pasco Chapter. My understanding is
that you live in another part of Pasco county, where we do not now have a
chapter. 

 

Were you involved with the H/EP Chapter? If so, did you not know that
elections were coming up? 

 

If you weren't involved, how would you or anyone else new or unknown to the
chapter expect to get elected by those present? 

 

My guess is that, if there are enough people in - let's cal it West Pasco -
who are interested, we might want to form a new chapter there. I know what a
difficult problem transportation can be. We have a membership and chapter
building committee, which would be happy to help you in organizing a chapter
for the people in your area.

 

By the way, would please write me off-list at danjhicks at yahoo.com and give
me your and Laurel's updated contact information. 

 

Thanks much. 

 

Dan
