Prez Says:
by James Shoffit, Maverick Region President
Ah yes, the first article after Parade – finally
it is easy to pick a topic to write about! There are
several big stories of this year’s Parade. It was a
very good year to be a Maverick in Milwaukee,
that’s for sure. We did very well in every event,
and brought home many trophies. The biggest
shock would have to be that Wendy, Jasmine,
and I won the Porsche Family of the Year award!
I thought that was reserved for people who had been going to
Parades for dozens of years, but it was wonderful to have our
efforts recognized at a national level. It was a spectacular follow-up
to Lanean’s Enthusiast of the Year award for 2000.
The other big shock was to find out my tires were the wrong
size for the Parade Driving Event (autocross). I had 45 series tires,
and for P14 you cannot have lower than 50 series tires. So Wendy
and I got disqualified from the autocross even though each of our
three times bested our nearest competitor’s best time. Wendy
even had one lap where she killed the car and restarted it, and still
finished with a time that would have won P14L. (Yes, there were
other drivers there – I think 9 men and 3 or 4 women).
The trip up and back were pleasantly uneventful. No
blowouts, no spins in the middle of the highway, no flats – we even
spent the night where we planned and got decent amounts of
sleep! Jasmine was an angel for the entire trip, and had so much
fun with the Porsche People. Her favorite event was probably the
kids’ autocross, organized by our own Lanean Hughes. Lanean set
up a wonderful little course of pylons and tires and the Michelin
Man waved the green flag to start the tiny entrants on their way. A
great time was had by all – spectators and competitors alike.
Look for a full write-up of Parade and all the Maverick
results and pictures in next month’s issue. Having just gotten
back, there isn’t enough time to do a quality job of summarizing
the week full of events before the printing deadlines.
Every month, I get a publication from PCA national that
talks about a different topic. This past month dealt with Boxster
owners, and how to get them more active in the club. This is a
topic that is important to me, as this seems to be an underserved
market for PCA. The proliferation of other Boxster clubs shows
James Shoffit driving at Standridge with his “illegally equipped” 911.
that the Boxster owners are indeed interested in organized events
and socials, but might not be aware of the benefits that PCA has
to offer. So a few of us are going to try to organize some Boxster
events coming up very soon. Of course anyone would be able to
attend, but the focus will be on getting some member and nonmember
Boxster owners together to discuss and compete with
their new toys.
The board meeting will be on Thursday, August 9th, so mark
it on your calendars. We are getting some new faces now that we
moved the date to Thursday, which will be good for all of us.
The Post-Parade Party will be August 11th at the Prairie
House, and you don’t want to miss that. If you have never been to
a Parade, but are even remotely interested, come find out what all
the fuss is about. You just can’t imagine how much fun there is to
be had with other Porsche people till you experience it firsthand.
August 25th and 26th will be the Mineral Wells Family
Reunion. We are trying to get all the people who used to be
MineralRing regulars to come out and remember the good old
days. As always, all members will be welcome at the events, but it
would be really neat to see a bunch of faces out there that we
haven’t seen in a while. I am really looking forward to this event!
So come on out, and join the fun!

Pam’s Page
by Pam Abdalla, Slipstream Editor
As I got ready for my first time-trial the
weekend of July 21st, packing my umbrella and
sun block, I wondered what exactly I was thinking?
It’s 200 degrees outside and driving in this
kind of heat without air conditioning (to make
the car perform better) and with a hot helmet
on, you’d think a person would have to be crazy.
I certainly thought the idea was, and therefore,
was considering going as a spectator only. But
my husband and Wendy Shoffit talked me into participating
instead. Well, now that it’s all over, I’m glad I did it! Yes, it was
hot. In fact, it was extremely hot. However, I must say that the
part that was hot was when I wasn’t driving. Once I got in the car
Maverick Minutes
by Andy Mears, Maverick Region Secretary
First off, thanks to Teri Davis for taking the
minutes for the first half of the meeting.
James called the meeting to order at 7:01,
well sorta to order. Control was eventually
regained and the meeting progressed. First item
up for discussion is the use of PCA message
boards to be placed at the area Porsche dealerships.
Club members have volunteered to
update messages and restock the boards as necessary. The club
currently owns one board and will be purchasing two additional
boards. The boards will be placed at Park Place Porsche, The
Porsche Store and Autobahn.
The nominating committee is looking for anyone interested
in getting involved in Maverick Region management at a board
level. The club has 4 position that are decided by election of the
membership as a whole. President, Vice President, Secretary, and
Treasury. Please contact any of the current or past board members
if you would like to throw your hat into the ring or would like to
find out more about any of the board positions.
The club will purchase one tent/canopy for use at the next
DE event. Charlie Davis has volunteered to act as “Interim
Equipment Chairman” and will begin the task of research and
and on the track, I forgot all about the heat and was totally
concentrating on the task at hand. Even after my run was over, I
didn’t begin to notice the heat until a good 15 or 20 minutes went
by, as I was still absorbed in the afterglow of my run, talking
about how I did, what I could have done better, and etc.
In the end, nobody who was there could argue it wasn’t hot,
but I guarantee very few, if any, would say that once they were out
there on the track that they didn’t forget all about the heat and
think only about how they were going to approach the next
turn. All in all, it was a great day and I am glad I was talked into
participating. I look forward to next one, no matter what
temperature it is outside.
“anal-yzing” the club’s needs for both storage and transportation
of equipment. If you are interested in helping please contact
Charlie Davis (chuxter@airmail.net).
PCA National will begin permitting 16 and 17 year old drivers
to participate in PCA events. There will be additional forms that
must be signed by both parents. If you have questions please
contact James Shoffit for more details.
Charlie Davis requested that the 914 Special Interest Group
(SIG) event in October to be run concurrent with the MRPCA
October “Run Whatcha Brung” autocross. The morning will
operate the same as the annual event and the SIG group will
autocross in the afternoon with 914 classes. Contact Charlie for
more info.
Maverick Region is planning a “Drivers Family Reunion”
August 25 in Mineral Wells. Look for the ad on page 3. Also,
Teri Davis reported on Round-Up in September and is taking
reservations and for accommodations. There is a full weekend of
activities including things to do for both the adults and
children. Contact Teri if you wish to attend or want to help out.
(See ad on page 9).
Meeting closed at 9:01. Remember, the monthly board
meetings have been moved to Thursday nights.
Maverick Region PCA board
meetings are held once a month.
The board meetings are open to all PCA members and your
suggestions and opinions are welcome . . .

Autocross #3
by Dean Yamada
75+ speed racers drove in on Sunday, June 3 for the third
Autocross Event held at a windy Standridge Stadium in
Carrollton, TX.
Many “Porsche Club Wannabee's” such as myself and several
friends showed up bright and early for yet another fun filled
autocross event with the Maverick Region Porsche Club. Albeit
we don't have our corral of Porsches, we were once again sincerely
greeted and treated as welcomed friends - something rarely seen
in specialized car clubs.
Although I don't know what a 996 is from a 930 or a VW
Bug from a 914, the large active participation of various Porsches
gives you a good hearty confirmation that Porsches are true race
ready cars with excellent balance and awesome braking abilities -
the perfect combination for testing your driver skill at these
relatively low speed and very safe autocross events.
The course was tight, but very straightforward - you had to
keep your eyes looking ahead, else you would miss your braking
zone, enter the turn too hot (or blind), and cook your front
wheels with no turning traction.
The old racers' adage, “Sometimes you need to go slow to go
fast” proved true on that sunny Sunday. I was able to shave 2
seconds off my worst time by slowing done to almost a crawl to
get through the tight turns - where previously my front tires
would squeal and scream to let me know they were over their
available traction limitations. (Instinctively I thought I was going
too slow for the turns, but looking at the actual lap times proved
that wrong) Excessive squeal = no acceleration = slow times and
this proved quite true once again. Smooth and boring to watch =
fast times. I decided to go for loud and aggressive - oh well, at
least I had a blast.
Mental note to myself: Get a bigger ice chest to hold more
bottled water! Encourage Club President to hold new Porsche
raffle and enter contest repeatedly. Rig contest if necessary.

Maverick Region Driver’s Education
by Carlo Malana
It was hot. Okay, it was very hot. Yet track temperature
aside, the Maverick Region Drivers Education (DE) event at
Motorsport Ranch held on June 23-24 was a very fun event,
with overwhelming participation from a lot of Maverick track
junkies (or track junkies-to-be). Since MSR, as the Ranch is
oftentimes referred to, is one of the closest racetracks to the
Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex, many Mavericks joined in on a
weekend of turns, apexes, passing signals, and good old race
track driving. There were also some friendly faces from Hill
Country and Lone Star regions, both students and instructors.
The primary objective of the Drivers Ed event is to present
a safe environment to better learn how to take advantage of
the superb German engineering within our cars. The day starts
out with a driver’s meeting where flags and safety protocols are
reviewed. Drivers go out for four 20-25 minute sessions per
day, grouped into 5 different run groups based on driving
experience. Instructors are required for the beginners and
novices (green and blue), while the more advanced students
are given the option to have an instructor ride shotgun.
As an instructor, the day flew by, as I hopped from car to
car, either as a passenger or as a driver, taking students for
instructional rides. Both of my students did excellently. My
Green group first-timer in a gorgeous white 930 slantnose
learned to drive a car that delivers power all at once, through
a tight twisty track, definitely enjoying the rare opportunities
where 16 pounds of boost pressure would catapult his Porsche
quickly through any of the longer straightaways. I’ve driven
many cars, but this one tops the list in terms of crazy acceleration
when the turbo boost gets a chance to build up.
My novice Blue Group student was a first-timer to
Motorsport Ranch, but had several DE’s on other tracks under
her belt. She was nervous initially, but soon looked very
comfortable muscling the I-mean-business 911 RS America
(no power steering) around the track at a very good speed.
I was definitely proud of the improvement that these two
drivers showed, and are two good examples on why I enjoy
instructing so much.
The Porsche Store, the event’s sponsor, also showed up in
style, staying out of the sun with an impressive canopy.
Represented by a collection of Boxsters, 944’s, and several
911’s (including John Gladwill’s 996-engined Boxster S), the
Porsche Store showed its support for the event with several
employees like John Hrad, Wayne Corley, and Rick Jordan
driving alongside their customers.
Mavericks now look forward to September, when the next
DE is scheduled. Hopefully, cooler weather will prevail,
but there is one thing that is sure to stay the same – it’ll be a
weekend of fun, fast driving in one of the most challenging,
technical racetracks in Texas.

Zone 5 Shoot Out
Excerpts from articles Vonnie Grether, Steve Olson, and Dan Taylor of Lone Star Region
The Zone 5 Shoot Out, which took place June 9th and 10th,
was a huge success. Shadow Canyon brought together the 40th
anniversary celebration that was truly Texas style with lots of BBQ,
beer, and all the wonderful people of the Zone 5 region. The event
included an Autocross organized by Joe "Retread" McGlohen,
which had a "shooting star" course layout that was a hoot. Later
that day many Autocrossers enjoyed a longer course at Texas World
Speedway for the famed Driver's Education sampler session.
Not one to be left out of the anniversary excitement, the
Concours committee put together an event that was held in the
"Cold Pits" of the Texas World Speedway. The occasional rain
sprinkles kept them scrambling to keep their cars in pristine form.
Jim Valenti of Maverick Region scored 395 points with his P6 Class
1992 Carrera and he also won the overall concours award. There's
was also a silent auction, which included a beautiful Marakesh Red
BMW R1100RSA motorcycle, raised $11,678 for Magnificat
House, a charity in Houston.
A HEARTY THANKS to all who helped out and special kudos
to Joe McGlohen of Maverick Region for making the Autocross
happen, Jan Mayo for her moral support and Lanean Hughes for
her generous assistance. YOU ARE THE BEST... We hope we have
started something for a continuing string of Zone 5 events hosted
on a rotating basis by the Zone 5 member regions.

Happy Hour at Sea Grill
by Tinker Edwards
The Happy Hour Crew: Dennis Chamberlain (co-chair),
Tinker Edwards (chair) & Ben Witry (co-chair)
Sea Grill in north Dallas was the setting for the June 21st Happy Hour. Even
with a threatening sky we had another good turnout of more than 30 members.
You could've fooled me that Marc Thaler and Bonnie Powell were new
members at their first happy hour, they fit right in with the friendly group.
Prospective member Scott, who just purchased a '77 911, stopped by to get
some advice on tweaking his car. We met Mike Jones' daughter Kathleen and
Scott and Tricia Guenther, who frequent the monthly Tuesday lunches, came to
their first happy hour. Just about everyone stayed for dinner, which served us
some wonderful seafood. I recommend giving it a try!
Attention Midcities Members!
You've been asking for a happy hour in your area, so we
are coming your way. The August 16th happy hour will be at
Carrabba's Italian Grill in Grapevine! See page 3 for details.
Also, there is a SpeedZone happy hour in the works and
maybe something at Texas Motor Speedway.
Remember, members are always welcome to suggest a location
for an upcoming happy hour, but be prepared to set it up
with the establishment. That's the best part of planning a happy
hour. Contact myself, Ben or Dennis with your suggestion.
See you at Carrabba's!

TSD Rally Workshop
By Carey Spreen
Dateline Weatherford, Texas (MRPCA) -- This sleepy North
Texas town west of Ft. Worth was brutally awakened on Saturday,
June 16, when a marauding band of TSD (time-speed-distance)
Rally School students, led by their instructor, held the Texas
Pythian Home hostage for most of the afternoon. The small but
vocal group commandeered one of the libraries at this Texas
Historic Landmark and blockaded themselves in, discussing rally
tactics and strategy, as well as traps and tricks that they might
encounter in the Porsche Parade Rally, which was to be held less
than three weeks later. Authorities later determined that the
group was composed of members of the Maverick Region of the
Porsche Club of America, but by that time they had abandoned
their makeshift fortress and made away in their rally vehicles.
But this was just the beginning of Parker County's worst
nightmare since the clock stopped in the Weatherford Town Hall.
This reporter has learned that the leader of the entire incident, as
well as the group's instructor, had designed a "simple" TSD rally
for the students to cut their teeth on, and they did just that. The
rally route travelled little-known roads south and east of
Weatherford, cutting a swath of destruction all the way to tiny
Aledo, TX, where the rebels finally surrendered.
The details of this rampage have finally emerged. Teri Davis,
Maverick Region's Rally Chairperson, set up the TSD Rally
School for Parade Rally hopefuls, and anyone else interested in
honing their rally skills. Four students were up to the task: rally
neophytes Karen and Eric Erz, who were to attend the Parade in
July; journeyman rallyist Carey Spreen, who had been rallying
off-and-on with various PCA regions since 1980, and had put on
his first one just last year; and grizzled rally veteran Joe
McGlohen, who had been putting on rallies himself since--well,
let's say his first sortie as a Rallymeister was well before there was
any such thing as a water-cooled Porsche. Karen navigated for
Eric in the Novice class, driving their recently-acquired Turbo-
Look 911 Targa, while Joe navigated for Carey in the Experienced
class, driving Joe's battle-hardened Stealth Suburban.
The rally started off well, with both sets of contestants
holding their own in each class, until they encountered the first
Manned Route Control, at which point disaster struck. Due to an
ill-fated misprint in the Special Instructions handed out at the
MRC by James and Wendy Shoffit (for which they were later
exonerated), both sets of contestants got off course, and for what
seemed like lots and lots of minutes, wandered aimlessly though
the wilds of southern Parker County.
It was finally through sheer perseverance, and a bit of luck,
that the teams of Spreen/McGlohen and Erz/Erz got back on
course and made it to the Underwood Road timing control,
exhausted but ready to continue. The second leg was a breeze by
comparison, and ended without further incident at Aledo's
leading burger bar for the awards ceremony. All contestants left
with trophies that fateful day: very pretty (and useful) glass bowls
with the PCA logo affixed to the bottom.
All involved in the incident have been released on their own
recognizance, after it was determined that they learned at least
two very valuable lessons: (1) everyone makes mistakes, even
experienced rallyists; and (2) no matter how many rallies you
have participated in, whether as competitor, worker, or
Rallymeister, you always learn something new.
But seriously, folks, it was a good time and, like I said, everybody
learned something. Many thanks to Teri Davis and her lovely
husband Charlie for putting on the school, and thanks to the
workers and participants that made it a success.
Last minute tips before we get started.

James Shoffit, and Eric Erz

Father’s Day Picnic
By Mimi Spreen
The 13th annual Father's Day Picnic at the lovely home of
Dave and Doris Casey was jam packed with good food, good fun,
great cars and of course, great people. As the RSVP's slowly came
in, I wasn't sure we'd reach 50, but surprise, surprise, surprise, we
had 73 actual RSVP's. Good thing the Casey's have the room to
accommodate that many people, plus the 16 cars entered for the
concours.
Charlie Davis graciously volunteered to head up the concours
and he divided the cars into 2 groups. The Blue Class and the
Prestigious Orange Class. He had a very secretive and highly
technical method for this, but he wouldn't divulge it. The results
are as follows:
The Blue Class
1st, with 12 votes, Richard Cross, Red 1964 356 Coupe
2nd, with 11 votes, Michelle DeJong, Tangerine 1974 911T Coupe
3rd, with 10 votes, Fred Pretzer, Red 1965 356 Cab
Relaxing by the pool.
The great water balloon toss.
Richard Cross and friend by his 1st place 356 Coupe.
The Orange Class
1st, with 13 votes, Hiram Saunders, Red 1995 993 Cab
2nd, with 11 votes, (tie) Chuck Blum, Silver 1994 928
2nd, with 11 votes, (tie) Ed Mayo, Metallic Green 1971 911T
The Saunders and their 1st place 993 Cab.
My personal favorite was the very beautiful Silver 1994 928
GTS and Chuck even let me sit in the car. It was all I could do to
not start it up and take it for a spin!! All the other cars were
beautiful as well, but I have a huge soft spot for 928 GTSs, especially
when it's a five speed. Thanx Chuck!
Wendy Shoffit headed up the games for the little ones and
some of the big ones too. We started with a water balloon toss
which was great fun. Mike DeJong and his daughter Emily were
partners and both did very well, until Mike threw the ball to
Emily and she couldn't catch it. I was standing next to her and
saw her bottom lip start to tremble, so I said, "that's ok" and she
looked up at me with tears in her eyes and said "I couldn't reach
it" I just wanted to hug her, but of course she ran to her Daddy
in tears. Maybe next year Emily! The winners, for the second year
in a row, were Joey and Jodi Berdis. I think someone else should
pick out their balloon for next year!
Hopefully the Casey's will be willing to host this event next
year, but if not, maybe some of the other members with a pool
and enough room to accommodate approximately 80 people, will
step up and volunteer. I know I look forward every year to this
event.
Thanks Dave and Doris for a wonderful time.

Tires, Brakes, Wheels And Things That Go
Bump In The Night At The Race Track…
By Keith Olcha
So an instructor, who shall remain nameless, spins out at
Motorsport Ranch in the June Drivers Education event. He
comes in to the black flag station and we chat. Later in the day he
come up to me and says: "Good news. I know why I spun. My
right rear tire had 51 pounds of air pressure in it!" Well that's just
dandy. The tire is rated for a maximum of 44 pounds, and in a
911 of that particular weight, he should have had about 41
pounds hot in the rear tires after a run session. Another instructor,
who also shall remain nameless, corded two Hoosier DOT racing
tires by running them under-inflated for two run sessions. You’d
think instructors would know better. Well, they did once, and
then they got lazy. Fortunately nothing happened with either
driver or their cars, but it never hurts to review safety items again.
Let's remember three very important areas of safety:
1) Proper tire inflation, tread surface wear, and lug nut torque
2) Brake fluid level, cleanliness, and air-bleeding
3) Brake pad and rotor wear.
Safety belts, seats, and airbags work after you get into trouble.
The three items above, when properly maintained, keep you out
of trouble. The four tires on your car, and the palm-sized contact
patch they maintain with the ground is all that connects your car
to the track. It's not a relationship to abuse. Let's start with item
number one above- the tires. Tires are filled with air, and it's this
air which maintains the tires structure and conformity to the
road. The tread contact patch rubber creates friction against the
road surface that allows acceleration, braking, and turning to
occur. Air pressure varies greatly with outside temperature and
heat generated from the friction. You should check your tire
pressure at least twice per day, once first thing in the morning,
and again after lunch.
Street tires generally should have 2-3 pounds more than the
factory pressure when cold before a run session under the theory
that they need to be stiff to avoid rolling over on their edges, and
that they will increase 4-6 PSI during a 25 minute run session.
Keith Olcha and his RS America.
However, if the rear factory recommendation plus 2-3 pounds
would exceed the maximum inflation (found by reading the tire
sidewall) don't add air to the rear tires. Also, most manufacturers
recommend high under steer-inducing pressure differentials
between front and rear tires. A good example is my Boxster. The
factory pressure is 29 Front, and 36 rear. On the track, that would
have the rear about 42 pounds in hot weather after a 25-30
minute run session.
I, along with others, have found that with street tires starting
at front 32 pounds (3 lbs over as mentioned above) and rears at
about 34 PSI works very well with minimal sidewall rollover and
decreases under steer.
With DOT track-tires such as Kumhos, Hoosiers, and
Yokohamas, those manufacturers have specific pressure recommendations
that can be found on their websites, or The Tire
Rack's website. For example on a 911- a Kumho V700 Victoracer
should be 1 pound for every 100 lbs in the front and 2 pounds
more in the rear. So if your 911 is 3000 pounds, a cold inflation
starting recommendation is 30 pounds in each front tire and 32
pounds in the rear. Kumhos like a hot maximum pressure of
36-39 pounds. So depending upon your driving style, the track,
and outside temperature in that same 911 above, you might start
28 F 30 R or 32 F 34 R for the desired outcome—but not 51 pounds!
Lug nuts should be torqued to 90 lb-ft. There's no need to
discuss why tires need to stay on the car, is there? And what about
the second item, brake fluid? Brake fluid is the hydraulic fluid
that converts foot pedal pressure through vacuum assist (in most
all newer street cars) into caliper and drum pad pressure so the
rotors/drums slow down. Where does all that momentum or
movement of the wheel turning go? It turns into heat and goes
into the air, the rotor, the tire, wheels, and the brake calipers.
After several minutes of heat, it is easy to boil the accumulated
moisture (water boils 212 degrees) that has been absorbed by the
brake fluid in the caliper. Once that happens the resulting boiled
water yields air bubbles, which creates space and thus the dreaded
"soft, ineffective" brake pedal. The only solution is to brake
less and let the brakes cool down and "bleed" off the air-bubbled
fluid in the calipers. How do you keep your brake fluid fresh so
that doesn't happen? Bleed the brakes twice per year with fresh
fluid and keep your master-cylinder topped up with fresh fluid.
What about brake pads and rotors? You can use up an entire
set of pads in one weekend DE at a track. Always start with more
than _ pad material remaining. Change your rotors every 2-3 sets
of pads, or better yet—measure them for acceptable remaining
thickness. Porsche has very clear specs for that. On some rotors,
it's stamped right on the rotor.
So check your car over after every run session, for tire cuts
and abrasions. Brake fluid and pad wear twice per day, and
inflation pressures twice or three times per day. And have fun.
By the time you read this we will be accepting registration forms
for our September Drivers ED at Motorsport Ranch.

Hope Happenings
By Lanean Hughes
Last month was a busy time for deliveries to Hope. Thanks
to John Garcia & Bill Kasdorf for helping to take two truck loads
to the shelter. On the way, we stopped at The Porsche Store (see
pic), which was a great place for Barney Barnes to transfer a
washing machine to John’s truck. The Porsche Store has always
been very helpful to us and has offered us many services. We really
appreciate the friendly folks there.
A special thank you goes out to those members who are calling
and making the trip to the shelter on their own. The staff so
appreciates your donations, and the opportunity to thank you
personally. Keep up the good work Mavericks!

At the Mineral Wells Reunion Event (TT#5 & AX#5), being
held the weekend of August 25 & 26, our friends and families at
the Hope Shelter will provide us with a Picnic Dinner on
Saturday evening the 25th at the track. They are excited to have
an opportunity to say thank you to the many Mavericks and their
friends for the support given to them. Look for the ad on page 3,
and let us know if you are coming. Hope to see you in “Hot
Mineral Wells, Texas”. Remember you pass through Cool, Texas
before arriving, that should lower your temperature some!

How To Get Involved In YOUR Club
by Wendy Shoffit
I assume if you’re reading this article, you
want to get involved. There’s only one way to
begin – show up. You can choose to come to
scheduled fun events or you can dive right in
to the board meetings. These meetings are
held monthly, with dinner and drinks provided.
Dates and location are listed in Slipstream
and on our webpage (www.pca.org/mav).
Board meetings are always open to all members – just show up
and join in the discussion. You will be welcome.
One of the most important things to do when wanting to
help in any organization is to first WATCH and LISTEN. See
what people are doing. Hear why they are taking that particular
approach. If you see something you would like to help with,
offer to help them in a way they would like you to. THEN you
can make educated, helpful suggestions if a change is needed.
Communication is the key.
If you are someone who has come out to an event, helped
do some of the “grunt” work, and THEN made suggestions,
your opinions will be significantly more credible and your
suggestions will be taken more seriously. Educate yourself
about the process before you look to revamp it. There is usually
(but not always) a perfectly logical reason why something
is being done the way it is.
If you offer your help and the organizer politely says,
“Well, there’s really not much you can do right now.
Everything is taken care of,” don’t despair. You have probably
come into the process a bit late and everything has already
been delegated. It’s nothing personal. At that point, offer your
help for the NEXT event and make sure early on that the event
chairman knows you are available. Please don’t assume that
since you said, “Sure, I’ll help” four weeks/months/years ago
that he or she will remember to call on you.
Make your presence known and re-affirm your commitment
to volunteer your time, services, or other resources. If
you don’t know whom to contact to volunteer, just call one of
the board members listed on page 4 of every Slipstream. If
he/she doesn’t know, you will eventually be directed to someone
who does know. As a final resort, you can volunteer to the
current President (James Shoffit). He is the one who makes
appointments to particular committees. Be consistent and be
visible. Let us know your talents and we will hopefully put
them to work!
Finally, when the time comes (and it may be immediate)
for you to help out, please be there. If you say you will do
something, do it. Be someone who can be counted on and you
will be treasured. MRPCA is run solely on volunteers. Not a
single person is paid for their time or energy. Without people
like you to become one of the “doers” by giving of yourself, we
would be nowhere. Please make the choice to volunteer and
let’s give some of the people who have been doing this for years
a little chance to rest. They deserve it!
