Recently, I have shared what I stand for and what I will do for you as a Director on the GFA board. Please click this link. Here's how I will do it:
I will actively listen to each and every one of you with respect and courtesy, and absolutely never ignore or attempt to censor the sincere input from any Member, regardless of whether I agree or disagree with you.
At every GFA meeting, I will ask relevant questions before I take a stance on any proposal.
I will neither stubbornly obstruct nor blindly facilitate any actions until I am confident I understand them, their reasoning, and their likely effect on you.
I will continue to work for the creation of the sorely needed GFA website with official e-mail addresses for each board member and archiving of communications.
I will work for much greater transparency in board activities, and vastly improved communication between the board and you.
I will ask to see documents so that I might review and verify their content for myself, rather than just rely on what is being said by someone.
I will advocate for, promote the creation of, and volunteer to chair an Education Committee, intended to pass along skills and information to our succeeding generations which are being rapidly lost.
I will continue to make all my contact information public, while continuing to seek your input, meet with, and assist any Member in any capacity that I may serve useful to you.
I will always follow our bylaws, as well as all state and local laws.
