Serving the Association

There is quite a buzz around John Gisondi “Peregrine” running for office on the Association Forum

The comments are for the most part very supportive including a post by “Britinusa” saying he would step aside so John can serve as Secretary.
Here are some samples.


I am sorry that I must decline John's kind nomination for Commodore at this time. I do, however, strongly support his bid for Secretary.

Bravo, John!
This move from governance critic to active governance volunteer is exactly what you and the association need to amend the past and to move the association forward into a healthier and more sustainable future. And, I have no doubt that with you in office that the call for nominations will finally be considered in time (late April to early May) in order to make it into the June issue of the Mainsheet. Thereby, bringing the entire membership back into the fold...whether they choose to participate or not.

If I still qualified as a voting member, I would second your nomination for Secretary.

Glad you added a smiley face to that one John.
I had not followed this thread prior to my putting my hat in the ring for Secretary. I would bow out and be in favor of John taking that position.

John I agree with JB.

I nominate you for Commodore.

There is nothing in the bylaws about running or serving in two positions so we will see how this plays out.

I wouldnt call that a buzz. Just people responding to your self-nomination.
