Good morning everyone! The following e-mail communication was sent out this morning to all members:
Quote:
Changes in the Ranks
Tony Amabile has been appointed as our new Convention Committee Chairman.
Brian Nemhauser, Certified Public Accountant and financial consultant, has been appointed as OUCH’s Chief Financial Advisor.
Mike Day has returned to the OUCH Board of Directors. Mike has also been selected as the OUCH Spokesperson
------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------
Voting Cycle Changes
At the Members Meeting of the 2007 OUCH Annual Convention in Richmond, Virginia, the members in attendance were asked to consider and approve a measure to move the election cycle to coincide with the Annual Convention. Elections would occur in May and the first meeting of the new Board of Directors would take place at the convention where the outgoing officers and directors will pass the baton to the newly elected. This would allow for initiation and orientation of the new officers, directors and committee members at the convention. The new leadership would be presented to the membership at the annual members’ meeting. The measure is also expected to help address a problem of low BoD output between October and the holiday season. The members in attendance approved the measure unanimously.

Help OUCH Help You
As the year winds down towards the tax preparation season, we would like to remind everyone that OUCH operates solely on donations, grants and sales from the OUCH Store. Donations to OUCH are tax deductible. Your generous gift to OUCH will benefit you in two ways - a break on your end of year tax liability and you’ll be funding an organization that is working towards a better knowledge of the causes, treatments and one day a cure for cluster headaches.
Please help us help you by going to the OUCH Donations page and making a tax deductible contribution today.

We really do want your input on the organization and your ideas on how to make OUCH work better for all cluster headache sufferers. If you have any comments, suggestions, ideas or questions about OUCH, please send them to contact_ouch@ouch-us.org. I will share your e-mail with the appropriate person/persons and get an answer to you as quickly as possible.

I thought Batch had just been appointed to that job. Was it an interim appointment?

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

I don't know if anyone, including Batch, expected his appointment to be permanent. The decision was made at the last Director meeting to select a new spokesperson. Y'all got stuck with me.
I will do my best to keep everyone informed of as much as I can in as timely a fashion as is possible.

And many thanks to Batch for stepping up to the plate in the interim.
