I would like to nominate MARK crusingblackp5

I know he's an officer and all but I don't think he has a "title" per say. Mark's an extremely enthusiastic member of this board and fairly knowlegeable and most certainly organized (As per the mini-meets he arranges) Now I'm not sure if he can be nominated or not? but if he CAN then MARKY for Events-Coord! http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

[CarDemon]

We should be looking for a wee bit of LEADERSHIP, MATURITY,  CHARISMA, LOGISTICS MINDED, BUSINESS ORIENTED, ORGANIZED, outgoing personality LIVE and in-person with some public speaking abilities. This is even a bigger role to fill now that the club is in its twilight years.

I would seriously consider that 2 people be nominated. One as Prime Events Co-ordinator and the Assistant. The creativity, networking and negotiating top notch meets and the administrative work behind it to keep up K-Dawgs quality now should be considered.

This is one position here at the TPC that is the LIFEBLOOD AND SPIRIT!!!....SO NOMINATE WISELY

[CrazyCaker]

So Mike are you nominating yourself? http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

As for 2 people to fill this role, we have discussed it and feel that who ever fills this position will be able to handle it themselves, such as KDawg did. Besides, they are going to have the help of ALL the officers behind them.

[kiwee]

just to be advised. this is a 1 person job. we are going to be looking for a team after the fact for that person to choose.
but for right now, this is a 1 person nomination

[CarDemon]

Sorry! I didn't want to come off as arrogant. You guys know best. I just want to ensure some topnotch events are carried on and the COMRADERIE come back to the club like the Dave N Buster Days, The Bubble Tea Meet and the Hamilton-Niagara Cruise where we rolled 30Deep like Iraqi Insurgents.

I just remember and experienced helping the TPC 1st Annual Pic-Nic, some WRC Cruises and the Jerk Pit Dinner Meet and there is alot of hassel and that was small scale.

Good luck to those that are in the running. http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

[Pro2nr]

It's a huge task no doubt, but there's plenty of help to be given. Every officer is willing to lend a helping hand. I know I'm available at his/her beck and call. There's already idea's floating around for monthly meets. Good luck to all nominations.

[tekkie]

I dont know if he would be interested or not but in addition to the people already mentioned I think that Tiwing would be great for this. He has good intentions of making this club better, is very easy to get along with, always helping people and he seems very organized. He did quite a few mini meets last year, and he is well respected.

[shibby]

the person nominated should have connections places. like vibrant meets, ES BBQ etc etc

Jamie, thank you for the nomination and the kind words. I respectfully decline the nomination -

I have offered assistance to a couple of other officers which will keep me plenty involved with the club in a more &quot;behind the scenes&quot; way... and I don't want to take on something that has so much importance for the visibility and reputation of the club if I can't fully dedicate myself to it.

Again, thank you. Good luck to all those who wish this position for themselves!

Unfortunately I'm like Kevin on this one. I just dont have the time. I have been spending a lot of time on the board over the last few months since Ive been out of work from my accident but as soon as I can get back to it I will be and really wont have much time to do this position justice

[Junior]

Understandable Mark and Kevin, no worries, hats off to you guys for stepping up and letting us know, right away. http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

[tiwing]

I was thinking about who is old school in this club and loves to drive (and who has the support of his woman). Who wants to bring back some of the true original club stuff (from what I understand), and someone who could bring some of the old enthusiasm to the newer members. Someone who is active on the show or race scene to add some authenticity to who he is and what he stands for .... Someone with a rebel attitude and the balls to stand by what he believes. I can't think of anyone who would be better to rep the club as en events coordinator than Johnny5 - Bring the revolution to the people!!!

[Junior]

Another person which I could see head up somthing this important to our club and obviously has the organizations skills to handle this. Has been an avid member of this board for a while, well before my time, and very personable individual, that doesn't hesistate to inform his fellow TOP buddies, I would like to nominate Eric - E Diddy for position of Events Co-Ordinator

[Johnny5]

I appreciate the nomination. It is very humbling to be reminded that peole think you have the ability to perform in this role. I, however, feel that I do not display the political correctness or patience for this position. There must be someone more interested in the grand scheme of fun for all. I am not declining but I feel there are people better suited for this role than myself. I would like to see someone more like Si-1 to take this role. He is always interested in the events booked and attends as many as possible. I only attend what I will find interesting and that is not enough.

[Pro2nr]

Bump. we need someone to take on this position. ANymore nomimations?

[CarDemon]

Gen1 GT- Josh http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

He used to be in like Pat Quinn and down like James Brown from out of Hamilton. He spent countless kilometers attending GTA meets. He put together the intial true TPC Cruise from Hamilton to Niagara. At the end his sister accommodated around 20+ of us with a huge layout of finger food sandwiches and munchies.

The TPC Spirit was alive and well that day and it brings a tear to my eye to see it slip away. I still get flash backs like a Vietnam vet though.

THEN THE CIVIL WAR CAME.

I am not sure if you can nominate current officers or not, but if you can, I would nominate Myk http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

I believe we're trying to stay away from that. That would involve a double work load for Myk, as he would have to do his current position as well as this one. Even if a current officer would like this position it would only lead to having to have their old position filled to avoid the double workload.

[ChopstickHero]

Myk is doing a great job as promotions officer...

Events Coordinator is a big job as well and having one person dedicating his time to it will keep that person busy. You all probably saw how dedicated KDawg was to it. We need somebody who is enthusiastic and willing to organize awesome events.

[CarDemon]

I think now that we realized how demanding and vital this position is for the lifeblood of the club, we are awaiting answers from the Abbot. http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif

[Gen1GT]

I appreciate the props Mike, but I've nearly completely separated the car aspect from the social aspect of car clubs. I'd still very gladly organize cruises and drag days, but you won't see me back at Treasures any time soon.... http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[cruisinblackp5]

I guess we'll let this go all the way through till Monday so that everyone can post up since the thread died a while back. So the 7th at midnight

[CarDemon]

Anyone????

[KDawgONE]

Ill do it. Seriously. I have more heart when it comes to Proteges and this club than 10 people combined.

If no one accepts it, i will temporarly continue to do it untill someone steps up....

[CrazyCaker]

I vote for Kris... but you'll have to go out and buy atleast a 1st gen! http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[thekid]

I thought the nominations were closed already, but since they appear to still be open, I will volunteer to be events coordinator.

I mentioned this to Jason (YP5) a couple days ago since I thought this was closed, but if it's still open consider me interested!

[KDawgONE]

Ill second Brian's self-nomination...


...hopefully not ALL the events will be about racing...hehehe!

[superdave]

For awhile there I thoguth we were gonna have to make kris sell the bbox and buy another protege. http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif


Hmmm all racing events eh? http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif

Thanks Kris!

I promise not to make all events racing related... there will be a couple events reserved for non race activity... http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif

but on a more serious note, i've got several ideas, both car and not so car related...

[B-Rock]

I guess i will be another to give a thumbs up for Brian, Meet him in Barrie at Auto-X. So that's why i can give he a http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif cause i have meet him.

[tekkie]

I was gonna nominate you before Brian but I figured that you would not be interested since your pretty busy with racing in the summer.

I am glad that you stepped up to the plate and I am sure you will do a great job just like Kris did http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif

lets make them all race meets http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/devil.gif http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif http://ib2.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[Hwy Demon]

Well if this is allowed, Ill nominate Brian too. why the F5ck not.
