Dear FPA-Board,
I just learned by accident that our Annual Membership Meeting is tomorrow.
I’m sorry, but it’s not the first time that such an important information dries up in the sand. I know you ‘re all working voluntarily but I don’t understand how something like this can happen. Nobody is on FB any more. Except the old generation of Freestyle Frisbee Players. We need to pull the stream of information from there asap. Did you try to reach out the the Players in a different way, too? If yes in how and why did some members didn’t get notified?
I’m very well aware that everyone is working voluntary and that the FPA as well as other federations is lacking staff but I don’t understand who this keeps happening, especially for the most important event for members. I’ve addressed my difficulties with the FPAs information politics in the past already and I don’t like to be put in that role of the permanent whiner. Something like this simply cannot happen.
What happened to the newsletter? I personally think you should cancel the event and sent out proper invitations to every member for another date.
With all due respect, I hope that some olks resonate with my perspective and understand my anger
