Jeff, I'll take on the news letter, please send this out to all members...
2011-2012 News Letter:
Our club president made it out on the water two or three times all summer. CPBA did have a successful swap meet last fall (hosted and mostly organized by Ocean Performance), OP was even nice enough to 'spray' the club president right out the door at one point, cheers were given by all! The CPBA had a great Christmas party, although the president couldn't be bothered to come. In fact, the CPBA president couldn't be bothered with anything all winter either, but he did log onto OSO once.
Our M@sshole friends to the east are in the process of putting together a race team for 2012. Combat Racing will be holding a party/fund raiser on 3/3/12. All proceeds will go towards their racing endeavors. We wish them well and hope they can manage to not only get a running boat together, but can also keep it sunny side up. Word on the streets is they are a little behind schedule due to having to spend a lot of extra time engineering a safety booster seat for their navigator.
In other news... Kev, Jamie, and the Mike's continue to add new boats to their collections. The Sutphen crew is planning a good showing for 2012. Adam continues to seek out "swimmers", while Pat's still talking about selling and going big. Rumor has it a certain Sonic will break the around LI record this year, all while still running Alpha drives. Robb's boat will get an extra layer or ten of wax for the 2012 season. John-boy isn't doing much with his boat, although he's vowed to not be so outspoken this season. Mike T. swears he'll take one of his many 32'-34' boats out at least three times this year, although the over/under is set at "once" by the guys taking action on this. Ego 1 is getting a new swim platform thanks to the folks at OP and should be coming home in mid March. Nate and Justin are still on the search for a trailer that's not twice as long as their boat (if anyone knows of a like new Myco for a 29 for less than $500, please contact them). Amazingly, Frank and his boat threaten to be even prettier for the 2012 season, is this even possible???
Lastly, Fran says "it's coming!" and that all he cares about is "running that sh!tbox with outboards down!"

Yeah All I did was get us a bank account, become an LLC, Get a BOG put together, have several meeting, make T shirts, make decals, Organize the Swap meet.
And **** like this negative crap has done nothing but undermine any positive forward movement and Allienate many members of the club who did work hard.
Gee wonder why I dont want to put anymore effort in,or participate in this online waste of time.
If you had taken the time it took to write this TRASH and did something for the club wed have a REAL newsletter.
Lets see you start a club from scratch and see how well you do? Since its SOOOOOOOO easy.

Jeff clearly you have had a hard go at it and have been busy and are occupied with other things. This is not a bad thing just a fact. I know could not tackle this project right now, but there are others here who do have the time and desire to make something out of the club so why not let them run with it and see what happens. You have got it started now let someone run with it, a new broom sweeps clean!

If anyone ever needs me and wonders whats up, Please feel free to email me [email protected]
check my email 4 opr 5 tiomes a day at least.
Not sure about you guys but all I heard was "blah blah blah, please send me any and all disgustingly wierd pics of really sexy fat ass chicks to keep me from doing anything constructive with my time daily"
As a plus it helps I live a long ways away so he can't come kick my ass for posting this...

Lots of rediculous posts from people who not only havent pitched in but arent even current members.
BTW the few people on here are not the whole club, There are many guys who do not appreciate or enjoy the banter on this site being a part of the club including many guys who are on this site.
As for the Christmas party the EMAIL list I handed to the person putting on the party never even used the list and contacted the rest of the membership though I asked them too several times.
Those members who were left out Im sure really appreciated it especially since I called many of them and told them an email invite was on its way.
running a club is not a one person job. Others need to pitch in to make it work.
