For the USA, GDP was positive beginning in 2010 until the pandemic hit in 2020.
Per the last magazine treasurers report we had $660,000 in unrestricted assets at the end of 2011 and in 2018 those assets had dwindled to $360,000. Hardly a reason to reward the group by giving them another chance to completely break the club. No dispute that many in the group have helped the club in many venues but finance was not one of them.. That is not meant to flame anyone but merely the facts.

Hi, Kurt Bangert.
To quote an 'activist' arguing with a conservative speaker, "Facts are not fair."

'Nuff said?????????????????????????????

I am only a 'Johnny-come-lately' compared to some in this club and to some on this BB BUTTTTT, I have been here long enough to witness some things that I suspect the 'concerned members' would rather did not see the light of day.

1. Several members of that group were on the BoD during the financial decline of the club.

2. The selection of models of 'DUBIOUS' appeal to collectors while IGNORING more iconic machines for production as models.
 
3. The apparent complete ignoring of the recommendations of an ad hoc committee, the ADNOMCOM committee, into nominations and elections within the club.

To name justa fyoooo.

Just my 0.02.
