Hey! I'm for the haggis!
If I hadn't been buried up to my neck ("fight fair, Christian!") in the Revision Pit, I'd have sneaked in with real ale, manchet bread, and some double Gloucester cheese.
Sorry to give this update on the ACFW, but 'tis true: all elected officers at the national level are being abolished in favor of this paid staff. The membership may or may not still get to vote for our local Chapter officers, but the leadership Politburo is currently silent on this issue. I went back and read the bylaws: interestingly, they mandate an elected Operating Board -- which is being done away with.
All this, and none of it in daylight. Methinks my time and service with the ACFW is nearing its end. I'm sad about it, because I thought I'd finally found a place to belong.
