I called out the one negative point that I saw because it seems to go in the opposite direction of what DCI has been pushing organizations to do in recent years. It wasn't that long ago that many corps had their CEO/Executive Director on their board. Now days, most don't... and the few that do typically include them in an ex-officio role which usually comes with limits/restrictions that are outlined in the organization's by-laws. Given the fact that this is essentially a fresh start for the Cadets, it just seems like it would have been wise to take every possible precaution to make sure they didn't run into anything that could be deemed a conflict of interest or otherwise compromising. Perhaps they did, and there's appropriate precautions included in the by-laws or other governing documents for the new organization. I just don't want to see this rare opportunity of a fresh start get bogged down by something completely preventable. it doesnt mean things cant evolve and change 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpbobcat Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I see the Cadets still say they are based in Allentown. Does anyone know if they are still in the same building with YEA ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would seem to indicate that they do not occupy an actual space in Allentown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they just don’t want mail (and donations) mixed together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersop Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Or all non essential businesses in PA are closed. Therefore, it makes sense to show a PO box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
