ITC Board Meetings

From Facebook:

Eric O Rogers to ‎Iditarod Trail Committee

Is the public no longer invited to the board of directors meetings? There is one on the website calendar for today 4/25/14 at the Millennium. I drove out there but there was nobody there. Same thing happened for the meeting scheduled for Friday 2/14/14, And the board minutes have not been posted since 5/24/13.

I did send the board an email at the address on the website, but in 22 years I've never gotten an answer, so I'll try here too.

IMHO communications with the fans is poor.
..

Iditarod Trail Committee: I'm sorry you missed the notification that the meeting was canceled. Apologies.
..

Eric O Rogers: Where are those notifications posted?
..

Bennett Spelce: Eric -- I have had the same experiences you mentioned, since the minutes of the May 24, 2013 minutes were posted. ITC does not communicate with the fans, or even with ITC members. I have been a dues-paying member of ITC for over a decade. IMHO communications by ITC with anybody is very poor!!
I think changes will only occur if the mushers themselves "force" the ITC Board Members to make some changes. Unfortunately long-distance mushers are not temperamentally inclined to participate in political activity.
