 Yes, it's easy for you to place the blame wherever it is convenient for you at any particular moment, Bob.  Where will it be in 10 minutes? What about your tenure, Bob? Was it totally without any problems? Were you the perfect leader?

Didn't a bunch of message boards recently get hidden away from the membership? I hadn't read them all, but now I have to wonder....what was on 'em that needed hiding. Or...was it stuff like this? Blame, finger pointing, accusations, secrecy, sarcasm....
HMMMM.......
an observation from an "outsider" looking in. Certainly makes me hesitant to volunteer in any way. Past or present... those who have donated time and energy to this potentially wonderful organization have been dragged over the coals here....
edited to add: I still thank every one of you for trying.

Jonny, I've often wondered why you've never let us drag you into the workings of OUCH.
 
NOW I understand.  
 
Yes, the original OUCHers - we really did some bad stuff, didn't we?  I'll go spank myself now.  Can I spank Don next?  Then Elaine.  Bob probably needs one, too, what with him being such an "imperfect" president and all.   Where's BarbD - I think she deserves a good whupping too.  
 
Yeah, this administration is SO much more experienced and proper than we ever were.

Thats a shame because $795.00 for Grant software is a lot of money. I write 20 to 80 page grant proposals all the time and have yet needed software to do it.
 
Thats almost laughable.

Barb D is right here with her pants down waiting on her spanking.  Wink
 
Geezzz, Margi you were horrible and so were you Bob P. How many hours did we all put in to get OUCH organized?  
 
And let's see -- we got the organization a tax exempt status and kept it. We got it around the world (that's worth at least a couple of whips with the lash). We got the attention of the drug companies (what the hell were you thinking Bob when you asked for a donation from them?) We got conventions together and brought in under budget. We had treasurer's reports monthly and COMMUNICATION with members, so everyone knew what was going on.
 
We THOUGHT we were getting professional with our website (gee Bob, I realy didn't know you were doing such a bad job -- everyone could get on it and say what they thought - even if we disagreed with someone else).  
 
WE built up a treasury for the current board to spend however they feel like it without any discussion (or info to the members).  
 
We were ALLOWED to discuss what we wanted to on the ch.com board EVEN if it concerned OUCH.  
 
And Don, we could get an answer when a question was asked whereever we asked it.  
 
My question now would be :  Why would anyone WANT to join OUCH without knowing what it is or what it is going to do. "To further it's missions and goals?" What the hell does that mean. Elaine, Bob, Margi, Kip -- anyone know what they're talking about now? I go to the OUCH board daily and there's NOTHING there.  
 
But I guess they're trying to clean up OUR MESS! Don't know how we ran things for 5 years without their help.

I have a couple of items to donate:  A large cofee scented candle with coffee beans as the base...it's beautiful...coffee candle...appropriate for clusterhead's no?  And I have a painting as well.  I may be able to get some of my artist friends to donate some of their art, but let me know first if these items are okay, Donna.
 
Thanks.

Nope.  I stood corrected many times but at least what I said and did was out there for all the membership to see and decide about for themselves.

It was every one up to, and including, Don's term.  It was after his that the leadership went into private.

I would guess that Margi is asking you to intervene and resolve the issues being raised in this thread.
 
Margi did you ask an OUCH officer to be accountable again? Damn you woman.
 
Has anyone maybe considered an OUCH staff training in customer relations?

After reading this report, I am still left with questions.  Glossing over all the slams at previous administrations and the veiled threats at the struggling chapters, I am left wondering about the financial status of OUCH.  The "Financial" section of the report certainly doesn't address your question, Don, nor does it give us any semblance of a Treasury status.  As OUCH Members, we have the right to know how much money is in the bank and how it's earmarked.  Don, do you see any mention of that in this report?  Neither do I.

It was pointed out to me that OUCH financials weere none of my business. I'm not a member. That truely professional response came from  a BOD member.
 
Thats One reason why  I'm not a member.
 
I really have no interest in OUCH financials until they ask me to go into my pocket. That was the basis for the original question.
 
Aren't financials for a 501(c)3 supposed to be public record anyway?

I'm a member, Don.  It IS my business.  So, I'm asking.  
 
How much money is in the OUCH bank account and could I please see a copy of the budget for the next fiscal year?
 
And could you post it here on ch.com please, so that those folks who are out there as potential members could have the opportunity to make an educated decision as to whether they wish to seek membership?  Either that, or remove the lock on the gate at the OUCH website?

There is no issue to resolve. A report has been drafted and posted. Memebers now have an update on what is taking place at OUCH.  
 
As for customer relations, I beleive BoBP, BarbD, Margi and you Don, could use a few courses yourselves.
 
No veiled threat on chapters Margi...this is on advice of counsel.
 
 
Margi...OUCH Bylaws reporting statement:
b) Shall maintain the financial records of the Organization and present financial statements to the Board of Directors  upon request and membership in accordance with federal and state laws and generally accepted accounting principals
 
When they are posted, financials will be posted on the OUCH forum.  
 
In closing, for those of you that are OUCH members and are discontent with the way things are being handled, call for my removal or cancel your OUCH membership.
