Hello. Last year I posted that I was volunteering myself for nomination to the Board of Directors at Barrier Island Station Duck - a 30 year old resort with a fabulous location on the Outer Banks, but one that had been neglected for years. Under SPM Management the resort is coming around and this year there was a more than $1200 assessment to try and get the resort back to the level it was when we bought. Last year, while my name was up for election, it wasn't on the official ballot (had to be written in) and while I received a far number of votes, it was not enough to overcome the wishes of the President who controls more than 150 weeks. I wrote all about this previously and don't want to bore anyone. Anyway, after making a suggestion at multiple owners meetings, that potential candidates be asked in advance of the notice of the meeting going out as to their interest in running, the Board finally agreed to this proposal made by my Husband and Myself. I haven't seen the letter announcing the meeting, but I have been told his name will be on there. Since I ran last year as well as the prior year, I am not running again this year because mathematically until things change, it is difficult for anyone who the President doesn't favor to win. However, my Husband has agreed to run - his name is Carmen DiGiovanni - and I am hoping that anyone who is a TUG reader and BIS Duck Owner will consider giving him their Proxy or even better, their vote at the Meeting. Please read his biography. The President has been in that office for more than 25 years and I think it is time for a change. Thank you.
