A letter to the people…

It has been a rough couple of months since the election was run, and we the committee feel that our loyal members of the Club should be given a brief insight as to what has occurred in this time.

First and foremost, our Club President was found to be going about club business on his own accord, without the approval from the committee. This happened on a few occasions, and subsequently he resigned and was later banned for his actions.

On one of these occasions he threatened legal action with the Victorian chapter of our club over the use of the ‘ClubCJ’ name. This forced their hand and they removed all branding with the club. Following this, the Tasmanian chapter also pulled all associations with the club due to backlash over said issue with the Club President.

Said ex-President was also threatening Committee members, and playing childish games over what had occurred. This further cemented our decision to ban him indefinitely.

We only want the best for the club and its members, so we have been investing time into how we can bring the club back to where it once stood. If you have any suggestions please feel free to let us know!

Whilst we do have a few available committee positions we have decided that we will not be taking anyone on board for the moment, as we are in a process of change. I do encourage however that if you are interested in any of the positions that you PM myself or aspir3.

I thank you for your support on the matter, and hope that you continue to stick around into the future.

The ClubCJ Committee.

Call new election. Place all positions up for re election. Create opportunity for existing committee members Who have made the effort so far to have the opportunity to apply for the now vacant presidents position if they wish to do so.

Or if the current committee members wish to retain their existing positions call for an election of a new president and other unfilled positions.

Or resolve the situation to its original state, if this is in any way possible.

I think they are looking for stability in management (committee). Rather than add new blood and try to run with less experienced members than they had before and try and bring new guys up to speed when they are trying to rebuild previous errors or lack of management.

I would hope to see more people organizing for meets to other cruises or more catch ups with small groups. I'm sure there are others that want to socialize more but Facebook might be the better forum for that.

As Chris said, we are looking for some stability at the moment while we go about making changes to the club, then once we feel its right we will start looking for new committee.

There are still committee members, but there's a few spots available in the near future.
