[RITSlist] RITS

Bill and All:

I would check with Imprimatur Dick Hutchins and the RITS Board of Censors as to the state of the last submitted newsletter.  There is some information in there, if it makes past the censors.  They had enough time to have it ready to reach the membership within the next week or two since it has been at the printers for the past two weeks or more.

  It has been over a month since the May 6, 2007 RITS board meeting where unprecedented action was taken to remove individuals from the board, strip them of their membership, and replace them with individuals more to the liking of those board members running the meeting.

  We have been told on the RITS list that those of us who are still RITS members will be getting a written explanation for these events.  How long does it take to get this official, written notice to the membership?  

  If the situation within RITS was so dire that it was necessary to take the immediate action by the board (as opposed to simply resolving the problem at the RITS election this fall), it would seem equally necessary to get the information to members in a timely, expedited fashion. 

  Have any other RITS members received the written explanation which was promised at the time this board action was first revealed?

    To all concerned:

    This is to advise that the Board of Directors of the Rock Island Technical Society, in its meeting in Clive (Des Moines), Iowa on Sunday, May 6th, 2007, voted to terminate immediately the memberships of Karen Huerter, Membership Secretary, and of Howard L. Hoy, Vice-President.  

    Mr. Jack Carson, President, has appointed James F. Welch, Davenport, Iowa, to serve the remainder of the term of Vice-President.   The RITS Board also named Dave Engle as Interim Membership Secretary.  All mail for memberships, and any other matters of the Society, is to be sent to Dave at 11519 North Wayne, Kansas City, MO 64155-2914; effective immediately.    

    Any questions or other comments are to be directed to President Carson at 1000 Jefferson Ave., Bellevue, IA 50231-1018, phone 563-451-7458. 

    Thank you.
