Randy,
I have one question. Why has not our board not answered the questions asked.
They want to have a closed meeting to address the problems. I love the BRHS
as much as anyone, and will attend a meeting when it is not 1000 miles away. I
joined the year the meeting was in the Black Hills. I am just a concerned
member that wants answers and no one is giving them. This is the problem, lets
get it straight and get on with what could be a great Historical Society. And
answering a persons question behind closed doors is NOT the way to answer the
questions. Tell all the membership the answers, rectify any problems and lets
get down to making the Historical Society a great one. Many do not know, but I
happened to be involved in a Historical Society that was Narrow Gauge, the
board was out to take all peoples money, historical articles, etc. I do not
want that to happen here. And I can tell you it was over ten years that the
stigma of this bogus society shed on forming another. Now do you want the BRHS
to go away because of lack of action by our board. Then have it never raise
its head for 10+ years, I think not. I do want to say I do not think all of
the board is in the wrong and very well none of them may wrong, but by their
actions of current I have great doubts of what is right and what is wrong.

Whoa, Harold, switch to decaf for a few days! :-)
I'm *from* Nebraska, and only interested in the Q *in* Nebraska, and
have never been able to go to a meet yet since I live in California
and was raising a family here.
But I certainly appreciate the BRHS and everything that its members
and officers are doing. It is a wonderful resource and I take it as
it is, and if I were to walk away from it right now I would be far
ahead for my $30/year investment (which I think will be going up to
$60/year on my next renewal.)
What investment do you have in the BRHS that is being lost or
squandered in the current situation? I know of magazine subscriptions
alone that cost $30 (or $60), and people take them as they are.
I have gotten well more than my investment in the Society, and if I
were unhappy with the state of affairs I would try to work on a
solution instead of sitting back and complaining. Or maybe you have
an alternate resource that deserves your support more?
Best regards,
Randy
