Zinger on the ATA Website

It seems to have slipped through the radar, but there's a note: "Possible Category Revision". Apparently there's a proposal being offered to the EC at the Grand American Meeting that will change Veteran Category age to 65 to 74yrs, and Sr Vet to 75yrs and up. It may have already passed.

 

It didn’t pass…. Voted down. No change

 

IT IS TIME TO RETIRE THE ENTIRE E.C. the senior vet's of today are the ones that built the ata, now they are kicked to the side. we all know the b.o.d. are a bunch of losers, and we can not count on them for anything.

It's interesting that it was voted down, and at first, one might think that they didn't want a category change to interfere with future plans to create a new Super Sr. Vet category. However, in discussions with a couple of delegates, there seems to be little interest in the creation of a Super Sr. Vet Category anytime in the future. Apparently, so far as the EC is concerned; it's a dead issue and not open to further discussion.

 

Quotes like that hurt the ATA. The EC is not in charge. The BOD is in charge. The problem is the lazy assed BOD is uniformed. They dont even know they are in charge.

 

Actually the BOD meets once a year. The rest of the year the EC does pretty much whatever they want.

 

The BOD can meet as often as they want. They can restrict the EC in any way they want.

 

Wally, they can but they are to chicken to do anything the ec does not approve. long ago the director from AZ told the incoming director that his job is inform the natives what the ec is going to do. his job is to pass on the ec's will.
the b.o.d. does not work for the shooters. Roger C.
