Charley's thoughts about Hall of Leaders! Just sayin'; I received this award in 2006 and at the time I questioned why I was being inducted into a brand new category (Special Service) thinking what I have done through the years was worthy of (Outstanding Alumni) or (Outstanding Volunteer), however I was assured that what I had done would only satisfy the newly added (Special Service) category. Well I was honored but I requested that they please not add a category just to satisfy those who nominated me as a "Hall Of Leaders" recipient.... well I was certainly told that was NOT the case that the "Hall of Leaders" was adding that new category permanently, by Lynda Baumgartner.... what a joke.... and what kind of organization puts a person it that position that the "Hall Of Leaders" put me in and then lied to me on top of it.... SEVEN years and no (Special Service) and then I am selected as the recipient of the newly created category that was permanent added... WHAT, am I some kind of ignorant ass, well I guess so, that classy organization "Hall Of Leaders" has not given another (Special Service) award again since it was created for me and Bill Fairman... in 2006.... SEVEN years before and SEVEN years since and still no other recipient has meet that HIGH CRITERIA that Bill and I must have set for that category.... What a joke; what would really be KooL, is that the Ha, Ha, Hall of Leaders? remove me from their Leaders? list for if I ever have to select a leader don't think it will be the Ha, Ha, Hall! The Joke Is On the Ha, Ha, Hall of Leaders? I tried to get them to tell me the TRUTH eight years ago and they refused! Well if you're thinkin' I am being too harsh and want to verify what I have said is true, here's a list for your verification..... VERIFICATION LIST Just for the hell of it why don't you look over the list of alums and volunteers that were recipients under those respective categories and then drop me and email and tell me why you think I didn't qualified for either of those categories either prior to or after the (SPECIAL SERVICE) category was created in 2006 which never reoccurred! I guess there is one more question I would like to have answered. I just wonder if the Hall Of Leaders, since it is the CPS (Columbia Public Schools) Hall Of Leaders, keeps this money in the same bank where they kept the almost $50,000.00 that belonged to Kewpie Alumni, the owners of the "kewpie.net Scholarship", which paid less than 1/10 of 1 percent to the scholarship in almost five years? |
