official position

[Guest Boxhead]

ok guys, i have seen the NSW guys have official positions, but what do they g et out of it.. for eg, prank.. what do you get out of being president?

[doxximus]

a sack load of cash bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

ahahahaha..................bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.....

jk hehehe

presidential positions and vice pres are usually for organising events such as track days, dyno's, meets, etc. also if a member has an idea for a meet such as a cruise, they would usually go through the president or vice and get them to tell everyone bout it.

then there's treasurer's who are just in it for the money,.......bahahahahhaahhahhhahahahahahahahahahahahaha......so they take care of the membership payments and could also collect money for hiring out tracks and stuff.

then theres other people who i cant think of atm

[Guest Boxhead]

yes but do you gegt paid anything to have a position of authority?

[doxximus]

nope coz this club is a non-profit organisation

[Guest Boxhead]

oh ok fair enough i guess....

[U WERE MINE]

guys.. the club has been set up as a non profit organisation.. we have to be supply all account details to any member and be auditable at any point.. Any withdrawls from club account needs at least 2 of Pranks, Myself's, Red900s or Onarun's signatures to withdrawl doshish..

all we get out of our positions is giving up so many hours running these forums, replying to these messages.. reading boring department of fair trading rules.. brain dead cams registrations forums.. organising crap.. and yes we do it for free in our own time.. while juggling full time jobs (part time uni in my case) and gf's..

We do it for the love of the club and bring a place to meet for u guys.. simple as that

now in saying that.. i have no life and i love u guys

Hi Guys,

As Paul said, it takes a lot of our time at the moment and will continue to do so, we get nothing in return except the satisfaction of starting something like this (and it is very satisfying to see how far this has come so far).

I tried to get "prank tax" through the board of admins whereas i get $10 from every membership fee, but they weren't too keen on the idea.

Keep these questions coming and lets try to keep these replys semi serious!!

There will however be a "Chip Tax" levied at all cruises etc.

If you have hot chips and a com. member walks up to you, you will be obliged to give them some

[Silver-Arrowz]

Well, if this club is generous, they can donate some money to the "Help Arrowz get a 911 Turbo" foundation

[U WERE MINE]

hahah guys the club has no money.. we been forking out the doshish out our our own pockets .. its not as if we got 100k sittin in the bank

I was Club Secretary and Treasurer of the (now defunct) NSW SVD owners club and I can tell you, even with about 40 regular members, it is a very hard and thankless job.

Well down to the people who have stood up and taken the position, I don't envy you, but you have my respect and support.

[PranK]

Southo - i didn't realise you were a part of SVD... i have probably spoken to you on the SVD list before...

Christian.

[Southo]

Yeah, I set up the SVD yahoogroups mailing list and tried to get as many people to use it as possible. For a while there it was looking pretty promising, but a lack of enthusiasm by most members saw it (and the club) slowly turn into just a group of mates who went for cruises etc. We tried a couple of times to get a full website happening, but it just never enventuated, and that's why you have my full support for this venture as I know how hard they are to keep up and running and keep people interested.

I really only visit two Forums regulary - Performance Forums and now now Skylines Australia.

PS, once the club is all up and running, I'll have a chat to you about getting the club some sponsor contacts for discounts etc that were very helpful with the SVD club.

Cheers

Jason

That sounds great, we can have a chat on sunday.

Thanks for the support too!! :D
