The USI Board meeting was held on Monday Feb 9th @ 6pm
The board discussed multiple subjects that were sometimes contentious with other board members but all in all the meeting was positive. There still seems to be a chasm between some club presidents to upgrade the USI campus to something current and modern versus just keeping our money in the piggy bank for a rainy day (e.g. a heated discussion between Walnut Creek President Kevin Anderson and USI Vice-President Bill McMahon regarding a potential new POS software that was identified at SHOT Show). Hopefully our presidents can work together and come up with a future plan for the range that will be appealing to all of our members both in Diablo and outside of it.
–Diablo Requested that another Kubota be purchased so that the golf cart at the MPR can be retired. All club presidents seemed to agree that this needed action.
That was about it… some voices were raised, angers spiked but it was a good meeting. Its encouraging to see people talk about issues at the meeting rather than things not even getting discussed because of a lack of a second to a motion. It can be trying at times but its nice to see USI being run as a business rather than having a club mentality.
Till next month guys…
Thanks for the post Chris. Please continue the posting of the USI meetings.
In regards to running USI as a business, I think we, the Clubs and USI should play under the radar of Sacramento, the city and county as they could cause us problems and ruin the good thing that we have going.
