Come on SAA members, it's your association and will only ever be as good as the membership wants it to be and gives it the power to be.
I just hope that when we do have the EGM we don't have to sit through another "Club Mark - this is what applies to England" presentation. Awful ! |
Ditto! The SAA do have money but it could be much better spent on archery related things rather than renting a room for no reasonable return. Also consider that there were two visitors attending to give presentations that are vital if the sport is to continue to move forward into the twentieth (or should it be the twenty-first) century. This is the second time in recent memory it has happened and the many members who didn't turn up or send in a proxy vote have only themselves to blame if the few who do take an interest decide on something which they do not like but could have influenced if they attended. Yes, it is not the domain of the few who attended but that of
ALL the members.
