style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Impending
leadership shortfall in the PSR chapter: 1) we have been unable to fill
the chair-elect position and 2) we will learn in the next several months
whether several of our current officers receive offers for SAF state
leadership and/or potential job transfers. If both vacancies
occur, then our chapter will be without officers and will cease to
function. This is a pretty bleak scenario – but it can happen. This is
where we need you. We need to prepare for this eventuality. For
those who have been officers in the past, would you consider serving
again? For those who would wish to step in for the first time, this is
the opportunity.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">As outgoing
chair, Mark Kimsey recommended a State-of-the-Chapter meeting be held in
January to discuss PSR leadership and chapter function going forward.
For those interested in leadership and would like to ask questions, this would
be your time to feel out what chapter leadership is all about. We also
would like to have many PSR members attend to give us guidance on how to
restructure chapter functioning in the event of leadership shortfall.
There are three options regarding future PSR function that will be discussed
at this meeting:<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Muddle
Through:</SPAN></B><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">
Continue as is until current officer terms are up or vacated and hope new
officers are installed. If not, this option would revert to Reactive as
outlined below.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P style="mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto"
class=MsoNormal><B><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Proactive:</SPAN></B><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"> Modify
chapter function by reducing monthly meetings from 9 to 2 (minimum for
retaining chapter viability within SAF) – one each in early fall & spring;
one summer field tour; one early winter workshop. Institute an informal
social only time (no speakers, no dinners) where members could meet at a local
venue for relaxation and catching up on news, etc. Continuing education
credits would stay the same as holding monthly meetings. Chapter
officers would rely on PSR members to lead field tours and workshops.
Reduced workload may attract members who can devote limited time to chapter
leadership. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

</SPAN></B><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"> All PSR
activities cease when current officer terms are ended or vacated with no
incoming leadership; chapter dissolved due to no activities; membership
transferred to an enlarged Selkirk chapter; PSR funds transferred to the
Inland Empire/Selkirk chapter. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman','serif'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Of course the
Reactive Scenario is the absolutely least desirable, so please come and share
your thoughts and suggestions. If you have any other ideas than were
presented above, please send them to any PSR chapter officer or bring them
with you to the January meeting. We look forward to seeing you
there.
