Stepping Down

Well guys. As much as I hate to say it I do not need to be the Director of the Dixie Strokers anymore. I am super busy with work and my life right now. I feel as if someone else can be more devoted to give this place what it needs.

Another reason for this is there seems to be no interest in the chapter from anyone. This thread was started three weeks ago in our section and not a single person from Alabama has replied.


Post in this thread your nominations for Director, Assistant Director and Historian (if we even have enough active members). I will not be accepting any nominations for any positions.

PM sent to the Membership so everyone will see this.

Grayson, I hate to hear this. I would love to be more involved in this chapter. The chat thread seems to never die, which is good. I too, am pretty busy, but I would love to do more to help out. Let me know what I can do.

As far as nominations goes, who are the current board members?

Sorry to see you go Grayson.

You did alot to get this started.
Thanks Tom.

Im not going anywhere. I just think someone new could really help out this good thing we have going.
Thats the problem. You live 20 minutes away from me and I wanted to come over while you were working on your truck, but I couldnt find the time to do it.

Like I said, I am not leaving the forum. I just think someone else needs to take the roll of Director. Someone to give it a jump start.

Goals for the chapter is to have meets often and lots of people be active on the internet.
Not much is required from the officers. Not much at all.
Im not hard on myself. I just really wanted to come meet you and see a torn down 6.0 in person. I couldnt make it over because I worked all Easter weekend. :doh:

Then the storms were just crazy
Hey Grayson sorry to hear about this. Although I never got to meet you in person, from the late night chats(only time I can find to be online) you seem to be a stand-up guy. I would sugest maybe if, and only if, no-one steps up to fill the slot that you just keep doing what your doing and life will come back around. There has not been alot of activity here thats true but you can't shoulder all that by yourself. But if you feel that it is best, then my hats off to you for what you did. My respects to ya. Tim
That would work, but it is not the best option. IMO that is what was going on.
Maybe it has to do with the current economic conditions. Seems like a few years ago there were lots of folks (myself included) with nothing better to do with their spare cash than build up a smoke blowing diesel truck. Now it seems like there is a combination of a lot less spare cash and more prudent ways of spending it, like beans and bullets. That combined with $4 a gallon diesel and that is staying higher than gasoline.
I'm not going to Beans dyno day for a combination of the above reasons and a few years ago I wouldn't have thought twice about going.
Very understandable, but the part in bold is what gets me. Why not post in the thread that you are not going?

:bump::bump:
Let's get this back going. Someone needs to be director.
