Participation pin error | #12 | ||

I and one of my brothers received pins last week. Neither of us enrolled this year. Maybe there are some turnover issues, since new person is running the
contest.

27675! He has contacted the MOA so credit can be given to the person who deserves it. Anybody know who that person is?
 Hopefully this year is better!

As the chair for the Awards and Recognition committee, I am concerned to read about these issues. For years the mileage contest was managed by Karol Patzer and
it ran smoothly. I will discuss these problem with Karol at the Board meeting this weekend, and contact the current coordinator of the mileage contest to see
what we can do to avoid these problems this year.
If you like, please email me directly with issues you've encountered. Please include your real name and MOA number. I hope that those of you who enjoy this contest, will continue to participate! Gail Hatch Director BMW MOA SheRidesABeemer@BMWMOA.org |

Larry, Thanks for validating our mailing with some known applicants who made the list. Restores my faith in the US Mail.
Gail, Thanks for looking into this. One year when I was the YB Secretary, a guy sent in his mileage form with his ballot. In order to prevent myself from telegraphing the reults, I made it my practice to open and count the ballots in December, long past the dealine for submission. Believe or not I still feel regret for this... As for myself, I usually use the signing of the form as an excuse to go and kick tires and swap lies at Dunbar's, my friendly neighborhood dealership. Mail it on the way home. But even that's no guarantee. |

My intent in looking into this is to fix the process for 2008, not go back and try to resolve 2007's issues. At the board meeting I did learn that many large local clubs reported similar problems. I think we need to chalk it up to experience, and not repeat it this year. I'm working with all involved parties to identify a better process to follow.
