Future of the omva

[Wpns 421]

I am a member of the OMVA and sometimes I wonder why?? Apart from the great effort by Eric Booth to product the CMP magazine the OMVA does nothing.
Every year they have the show/sales at Acton but it only lasts from 8:00 till about 12:00. Then nothing.
I think we need a new leadership team.
I spoke to Ryan who collects military vehicles and has a gun store and he told me that he offered to host the OMVA website and he was willing to pay for the hosting as long as he could advertise, he was refused. Why??????
Also has anyone ever seen a financial statement where are dues are spent??
I know Peter has been heading the OMVA for a long time, but I think it is time to hand over the reins to someone new. He has done a good job but we need new blood.
Things I would like to see: Show schedules, upcoming events, contact list between members, what is going on with other associations. If we have this information maybe we will have better participation at various events.
Am I wrong to say what I did, this is what I feel and unless we do something the OMVA will die out.
